Ratings and reviews

its good for backing up, but the notifications are really crazy. its an all or nothing. i dont need to be notified when a back was successful each and every time I take a new photo. I just want to be notified if there are errors! I use IDrive on my personal computer... notifications are much better there.

Hopefully they fix the app so I can change my rating, but I haven't been able to use the app for many months now. I enter my credentials, and then a Captcha window appears with the spinning circle saying "validating", and it returns to the login screen without ever proceeding. Since mostly what I subscribed for was to keep my gallery backed up, I'm not getting what I paid for and will have to look for another solution if it isn't fixed soon. (I am able to log in on my computer though).

This application spent the entire time that it was on my device erroring, crashing, and being completely unuseable. The crashing became so frequent that I could not do a single thing on my device without a crash message showing every single freaking second. This is a useless application that will only frustrate you, while not backing up your device.
