Google Photos drops Partner Sharing support for photos from other Android apps

Users started noticing the change over the last few weeks, and Google just confirmed it.

The change seems to also affect unedited screenshots, and Google didn't explain why Partner Sharing now works differently. The confirmation was first spotted by TechIssuesToday, which noted that the support document was updated sometime in the last month based on Wayback Machine archives. Though a new Updates page in the Photos app now exists for changes like this, Partner Sharing users apparently haven't received a message.
