  1. OneDrive - PHOTOS - marking a photo as a "FAVORITE"


    As someone who desperately wants to work within the Microsoft Ecosystem, your solution for photos really stinks, particularly with marking photos as "Favorites". I am fully aware that the Windows 10 PHOTOS APP has the "heart" icon to "favorite" a particular photo. However, this does not carry forward onto an android or IOS device. For example, I have an android phone and use OneDrive quite a bit. My question here is 1. Within the OneDrive "photos" function both on the internet or on Android, why the heck can't you allow us to "favorite" a photo or see photos that have already been marked as favorite via the Windows 10 Photos App????; and 2. Why the heck can't you port the Microsoft Photos App onto Android??? aren't you supposed to be a software company? Don't you realize that PHOTOS is one of the killer apps behind email, for example?? what the heck are you waiting for?

    :)

    How do I bulk download photos marked as favorite from iCloud?

    I have about 1000 photos in iCloud marked as favorite and I would like to download them in full quality all at once. So far, I found two options and none of them is good:

    1. Multi-select photos on iCloud and select download unmodified
      originals. This requires to click on all 1000 photos one by one and downloads .heic files which i further need to convert to jpg.
    2. Get iCloud for windows and download all the original files. However, this is very slow and I need to manually pick the favorites out of all files.

    photos marked as favorites on computer one drive app

    I spent hours reviewing over 5000 photos and marking favorites on the OneDrive app, using the "Photos" app on my laptop. Now I am unable to find out how to locate the photos I marked. Is there no way to go to a folder and pull up "favorites?"

    OneDrive - PHOTOS - marking a photo as a "FAVORITE"

    How to easily locate photos marked as Favorites after PC/OneDrive sync?

    Hello,

    This is probably something simple, but I wasn't able to easily locate photos marked as Favorite on my phone after syncing either onto OneDrive or PC. Let's say I have 10,000 photos and only 100 are in Favorites. Upon syncing them up I would like to have
    easy way of finding the ones marked as Favorites on the phone. But can't find a way to locate it as some searchable / filterable property either on PC or OneDrive after the sync.

    Any pointers much appreciated.

    Thanks, Andrew
