Hacker News Reader

How is it the official app? It's not made by Google but by Pixite (author of the OP): http://www.webalbumsapp.com/

Were they bought out or something? That page doesn't seem to indicate so.

Thanks Timothee, you're right. Google's name for their Picasa albums product is "Web Albums" and the one the author in OP is talking about was by Pixite (not Google). But still, it has much higher user ratings and should rank higher. reference: http://support.google.com/picasa/bin/answer.py?hl=en&ans...
