Picasa, at the moment, has been discontinued. It was originally created by Lifescape in 2002 and in July 2004, Lifescape sold Picasa to Google and started offering it as freeware. Google offered native applications for Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7 including OS X. To create an installation package for Linux, Google bundled Wine with the Windows version.

Google announced on February 12, 2016 that it will be discontinuing support for Picasa Desktop and Web Albums effective on March 15, 2016 and Google will be focusing on its successor, the cloud-based Google Photos. On May 1, 2016, Picasa Web Albums which is a companion service was closed. For more information about Picasa and how to recover your photos, go to Moving on from Picasa.
