Google Photos search to show only local photos On my Android phone in Google Photos, I want to select and perform an operation only on photos which are actually stored on the device.  I tried a couple of search terms such as "local" and "local:" but I am really shooting in the dark here.  Is there a way I can filter or search and only show images which are on the phone, so I can then do normal operations on all of them at once?

There are several pre-defined searches available like "Videos" but I don't see any which do what I want.

If this "operation" is outside of the "Google Photos app" you can install an other gallery app that can search local photos, has "multi-selection" and "send"

Example:


find local photos with alternative-gallery app
select the photos
send selected photos to "scrambled-exif-app" (= remove exif data from seleted photos and re-send)
send result via email


A Photo Manager (where i am the author of) is a gallery app with powerfull search functionality. 

I am shure that other gallery apps can do this, too
