Google Photos Sharing with Non Google Accounts

[Meghan]

Hello Google Educators.  

Our school wants to share albums of Google Photos.

I believe there is now way to privately share a google photo album with someone without a google account.

This is what I would like to do!  Privately share a google photo album with parents without a google account.

Any solutions?

THANK YOU...

Hello.
I think You can create a photo album and You can share this Album as link without any registration. 

Gemini  AI answer:

Yes, you can privately share a Google Photos album with people who don't have a Google account. The best way to do this is by using the "Link sharing" option. This feature creates a unique, unguessable URL that you can send to parents.

How It Works

• Create the album: First, you need to create a new album in Google Photos and add the photos you want to share.

• Generate the link: In the album's sharing settings, there is an option to "Create link" or "Link sharing." Enabling this generates a unique URL. Anyone with this URL can view the album.

• Share the link: You can then copy and paste this link into an email, a messaging app, or any other communication method you use to reach the parents.

This method allows parents to view and download photos without needing to sign in or create a Google account.

Thank you!  That's what I thought.  I was hoping there was a way to do it without creating a shareable link.  I understand that is not the case, because one cannot add a non gmail email address to an album.  (i tried...)

Thanks anyway for taking time to respond.

¿Probaste con crear un micrositio con Google Site?

creas una página

cargas las fotos o generas "carrusel" de fotos y publicas tu sitio

y el enlace de tu sitio lo compartes con quien deseas.

en mi unidad educativa para una actividad deportiva y dada la gran cantidad de fotos procedí de esa forma, te comparto el enlace para que le des una mirada, si necesitas ayuda en la construcción me escribes y con gusto te contribuyo.
