I think they're separate apps. People who are used to using the Google+ app to access their photos are now required to download the separate, optional Google Photos app.
- mrinterweb 11y agoYou're right, Google Photos is a separate app. Google Photos is one of my favorite apps. Great UI and great functionality.
- cxseven 11y agoIt's not just apps. The server side seems to have been rebuilt independent of Google+. Like OP, I'm wondering why Google didn't just find a way to give people outside of G+ direct access to the features inside it, which were already pretty good. Google spends a lot of energy on supposedly optimizing UI when the biggest improvement to usability would be to avoid inconsistent and frequently changing interfaces.
