Does Google take any of my file data on Android? I read about syncing photos with Google on Android somewhere, and got a little concerned.
It is probably just a special Google service you have to sign up for, but just in case, I want to relieve me of this concern.

Does Google send my photos(files in the gallery) to their servers?

I under no circumstance would like automatic syncing of picture and photo files.
Google supports photo syncing, but you can disable this.


If you have Google+ installed, disable Auto Backup. Open the app's settings, and go to Auto Backup &gt; OFF.
Disable Google photo sync. On your phone's settings, go to System settings &gt; Accounts &gt; Google &gt; username@gmail.com &gt; Sync Picasa Web albums. Make sure sync is disabled.


UPDATE 2013-11-22: As per Damien Golding, it is also worth noting that the settings of the camera must be checked. In his case, Google photo sync was ON in the Albums setting.
