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

Auto upload sometimes works sometimes not. In second scenario I have to go to settings, disable and enable it and suddenly all my new photos and videos are uploaded. Second issue is upload error that happens from time to time with single pictures. I can re-try manually (even right after this error occurs)and almost always it succeeds. Why is it not done automatically? One feature request would be to add a document scanner - something similar that is built in Dropbox application (performs auto-crop, raises contrast and suggests a name). I know that there are 3rd party solutions to do that but it's much more convenient to be able to add document as you add picture now.

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.

The app is just annoying. Constant notifications and popups before I have even looked around. I have spent more time closing suggestions than anything else so far. Also annoyed by the need to jump through hoops to get the 10gb free allowance. Even microsoft isn't this needy and that is saying something. I will recommend you to my friends if/when I am able to test it properly. It has uploaded photos/folders that I DID NOT GIVE PERMISSION
