Google Photos Select All

Chrome extension that adds bulk-selection and keyboard shortcuts on Google Photos.

Features

Select All button

A floating Select All button appears in the bottom-right on photos.google.com.

• Scrolls through the photo grid and checks every visible photo checkbox
• Uses date-group “Select all photos from …” checkboxes when available
• Shows a loading state while selecting
• Works on album and library grids (not single-photo view)

Keyboard shortcuts

Shortcut	Action
Shift + W	Move selected photos (or the open photo) to trash / bin, including confirm dialog
Shift + Cmd + A (Mac) / Shift + Ctrl + A (Windows/Linux)	Open the Create or add to album → Album dialog
Shift + 1	Add selection to the last album you used

Shortcuts are ignored while typing in an input, textarea, or contenteditable field.

Delete / trash (Shift + W)

• Clicks the visible Delete / Move to trash / Move to bin control, or opens it via More options
• Confirms the delete dialog automatically
• On search lightbox photo views (where trash often does nothing), navigates to the canonical /photo/<id> page and retries trash there

Add to album

• Shift + Cmd/Ctrl + A opens the album picker for the current selection
• Choosing an album remembers it in extension storage
• Shift + 1 re-adds to that last-used album without reopening the full picker flow manually

Install (unpacked)

1. Open chrome://extensions
2. Enable Developer mode
3. Click Load unpacked and select this folder
4. Open photos.google.com and reload the tab

Permissions
