   In this example the file is named: PXL_20240830_150806479.jpg. “PXL” indicates that it was taken on a Google Pixel device. The date format indicates it was taken on Aug. 30, 2024, but in some cases the filename can change to the date the photo was uploaded. That could look like this: “2024-08-30.jpg”.
