Ratings and reviews

Awful. Simply doesnt work. Just says its scanning for files, and calculating duration. It did once finish scanning and said it would take 11 days to back up, and attempted to do so at about 250kp/s....! i have superfast wifi, no such issues on any other device or app. My phone has about 300gb of data, not excessive these days. After a day, it failed having got through 7% of the files, and refused to restart. Its never got to actually backing up again, just "scanning". Waste of time and money.

Awful product. There's no way to automatically backup document files only photos and videos. You can create folders but can't move files between these folders. It has an outdated music playlist function (which I can't figure how to use), most people use music streaming services these days. File uploads one at a time?? Really basic stuff missing. I'm upset I was bamboozled into buying this and now I'm stuck with it for 3 years. I will not be renewing. I've marked the date in my calendar.

if you have any disruption to the WiFi the back up cancels and doesn't resume. one drive worked seamlessly this does not. downloading files off the cloud to Android crashes more than it works. I've never retrieved a folder of files first time. when you are downloading if you touch any part of the screen it cancels the download edit: turns out the automated backup hasn't worked in three months. Edit: sharing files is via an e-mailed link (!) Which doesn't work. Don't buy
