About this app

pCloud is the secure place to store, preview and share files, anywhere you go. Start with up to 10 GB free storage.

You'll be able to backup photos and videos from your device, play your personal playlists, or preview work-related documents. You'll also be able to share large files with anyone and control access with password protection and expiration dates. From your vacation photos to videos and work documents, pCloud brings all your files together.

• Start with up to 10 GB free. Extend the space on your phone with up to 2 TB
• Choose where to store your files - in the United States or the European Union.
• Scan invoices, reports or receipts with an easy-to-use document scanner.
• Backup photos and videos from your phone with the option Automatic Upload.
• Access and preview files across all your devices.
• Share large files with added security (password protection, expiration date).
• Play your personal music collection with the built-in audio player.
• Get offline access to important files, when you're on the go.
• Encrypt private files with client-side encryption, using pCloud Encryption.

Use pCloud Encryption as the vault for your passwords, financial reports or other sensitive documents. The files you upload to the Crypto folder will be protected with client-side encryption. This means that they will be encrypted before they get uploaded to pCloud. With pCloud's zero-knowledge privacy policy we, as a service provider, will not know what kind of data you store in the Crypto folder.

pCloud is also available for iOS, desktop (Windows, macOS and Linux) and from my.pCloud.com.

Ratings and reviews

It's an awesome service and the app is pretty good, but there are some features missing. For example, there is no way to see the resolution of an image or a video, I need to download it to get that information. Also the photos section really needs an albums feature. Showing all photos from all folders is a mess, it combines documents with projects and camera photos. Another recommendation would be being able to change the color of folders like you can in Drive, it really helps with organization.

Extremely unreliable autosync. Usually lags behind around 2 weeks, and has no way (at least I didn't find) to force sync all new files. Linux client is barely working, intermittently syncing files, idling most of the time no matter there are still 1.7 gb of files not being synched. Upload speed is awful, despite the fact that I have 200 Mbit internet. edit: still the worst experience, my workaround so far has been to disable and enable automatic sync for Android in order to get my files to sync

I can't tell if works completely. It syncs with Google Drive with no issues. But it also indicates that One Drive synced, but nothing appears from One Drive.... Although it now won't let me sync for another month. But no files appeared from One Drive. I also don't like that it won't sync with Box, Proton, or Mega. It also won't connect with Solid Explorer, which would really help me transfer from clouds that PCloud doesn't support. I was hoping it would be easy. Glad only signed up for a month.
