    Saves your photos, now for a price

    Date: Aug 15 2021
    Summary

    For Android users there is no better photo cloud solution. Unfortunately, the "free" storage has disappeared. Time to look for hard drives now :/

    Positive

    Automatically uploads your photos and videos (not just the ones you take with your camera) with options on resolution and with quick app/web access on other devices.

    Negative

    Scans your photos for faces, which is a tad creepy. Lower resolutions used to be free, but now counts against your drive storage space.

    A best tool to store and organise photo gallery

    Date: Oct 01 2021
    Summary

    I would highly suggest others to use this tool, particularly if you have a google account. It offers numerous provisions that are both functional for individual use not with standing valuable for expert and business related exercises.

    Positive

    The arrangement is extremely basic and quick. The plan of all your photographs and recordings is excellent. The AI recognizes the countenances and isolate them in various collections separately which is noteworthy. The free stockpiling accessible is sufficient for one to transfer all the significant photographs and recordings they need. Even in the wake of erasing the records it will in any case be there in waste for 30 days which is an exceptionally helpful component. The interface is extremely smooth. It's reconciliation with any remaining google stages makes it exceptionally simple to transfer any pictures and sync it.

    Negative

    Capacity issues and numerous record exchanging. It's very little well disposed with the telephones with great photographs as it secures a lot of room and it shows memory full even with less mixed media stuff.
