In the camera app, swiping right to go into the gallery, I errantly set it to use Google Photos as the default app for looking at images. I would like to switch it back to "Gallery."

I can't seem to find where to make this change. Photos or Google Photos does not appear in the App list for me at all.

Thanks,
PittCaleb

Not certain about on the moto x as I have not received mine yet but typically...

Settings>Application Manager>All Applications>Google Photos>Clear Defaults under "Launch by Default"
Click to expand...

That's what I was looking for... however...

I don't see Google Photos... So strange... Not under "Photos" either.

It's actually Google+. You can tell for any app, by the way, by opening the app drawer and dragging the app - as if you wanted to add to a home screen. At the top of the current home screen will be an "app info" control. From there you can clear defaults, etc.

Navigation is actually google maps, too.
