Ratings and reviews

App seems to hang on backing up videos and pictures no matter if on wifi or cell data. I've had a single 500M video file trying to backup for 3 days. Without any type of looking or status on the backup don't know if it is hung or just slow like in the 56k modem days. This also cause the back to be blocked from processing the rest of the files (contacts, sms, phone logs, etc.). Thinking of uninstall ING and backing up with other means and not renewing my subscription.

I compared cloud companies for three months before choosilng idrive. There's a lot of things to consider: security, upload and download speeds, oS integrations, device compatibility, price, connection stability, and UX/interface. This app has delivered in every category! Thank you! Only thing I cannot figure out is how to share access with someone.i understand I can send them a link but I would them to be able to upload to the shared file. Idrive is stable, reliable, non-intrusive.💯

Do NOT subscribe to their service. It is effectively a scam. Even if it you tell it to, they didn't keep your current files, they just keep adding more and more files to your account until you exceed your quota and they charge you a dollar for every 4gb of space you're using, and you have to go through their incredible awful online system to delete files, one by one, going through folders manually and it doesn't update how much storage is taken unless you look in the desktop app separately
