Move photos to another project

Reassign team photos to a different project, or drop the project assignment entirely.

When you’d do this

Photos landed in the wrong project, or they came in with no project attached and you want them filed. Moving changes which project the photos belong to.

What you need

Role: Team Owner, Team Admin, or any role with "Move photos" enabled
Surface: App and Web
Plan: Free · Business

Move photos on the web

On All Photos, or on a project’s Photos tab, tick the photos you want to move.
Click Move in the toolbar.
Pick the destination from the list, or find it with Search Project.
Click Move.

Create project in the bottom left of the dialog makes a new project without leaving the dialog.

Move photos in the App

Open Teamspace in the App and select the photos you want to move.
Tap Move.
Pick the destination project, or No Project to leave the photos in All Photos.

Where photos can go

Both ends offer the same two destinations. Only the wording differs.

Destination	What it’s called	What happens
A project	The project’s name	The photos leave the project they were in and belong to the one you picked.
No project	Move to All Photos (No project assigned) on the web, No Project in the App	The photos stay in the team library but stop belonging to any project.

Common pitfalls

One destination per move. Ticking a second project clears the first. If the photos belong in different projects, move them in separate batches.
Move is not a copy. The photos leave the project they were in. To keep a copy elsewhere, export them first. See Export as ZIP.
The Move button stays greyed out until you pick a destination.
Members can only move their own photos by default. The Move photos permission has three scopes: All Photos, Own only, and Deny. The default Member role gets Own only. If Move doesn’t appear, ask the Team Owner to check your role.
