Android auto backup gone crazy!
My android phone has gone completely crazy by backing up hundreds of images onto my Google + photos. These are not photos from my phone camera but some sort of random pictures of all sorts of crap! It's driving me mad and it's filling up my online storage with rubbish.
Help!

Open the photos app, press the menu button, press on device, you will see the folders with images on your phone. At the top left there will be a cloud, if it's blue it's on auto backup, if it's grey with a line through it, it's not on auto backup.

![]() I have done as you suggested and now the only blue cloud is for camera only. Hopefully that will solve the problem. I now have to spend some time on my computer to delete all the crap that has been already uploaded.

Chances are all that rubbish are stored on your phone somewhere so it's probably worth finding them and clearing them as they will be using up your phone/sd card storage too.

Probably the browser image cache was selected somehow.
