Best Free and Paid Alternatives to Google Photos

alternatives to google photos

Google is no more giving unlimited space for storing Google Photos. Google ensures that it will launch tools so you can better manage storage and take advantage of the 15 GB free it gives to all users, but if you want to go looking at alternatives, here are seven alternatives to Google Photos to make backup copies of your photos and videos. So, if you want to exit from Google Photos, and no longer wants to use Google photos... Then here is my bucket list of free and paid cloud storage platforms for storing your valuable memories... 

Best Alternatives To Google Photos

#1 One Drive

Microsoft allows you to impersonate many of Google's applications and services with your own, and the same applies to backing up photos. It is available through the OneDrive application, activating the camera upload.

From there, OneDrive takes care of syncing photos and videos automatically and in original quality. Microsoft gives 5 GB free to new accounts and price plans that start at $4.9 per month for 100 GB, the Office 365 package being especially interesting, which comes with 1 TB of storage in addition to the office suite.

#2 DropBox

Dropbox is one of the best-known names in the world of cloud storage. Its Android application can, like Google Photos, make a backup copy of all your photos automatically (and you can also choose which photos are copied and which are not).

To activate the backup of photos in Dropbox, you must activate Camera uploads, with the possibility of also selecting videos. They are uploaded to original quality and count on your space. Dropbox gives 2 GB free to new accounts and has 2 TB plans for $149 per year.

#3 Amazon Photos

Unlike other apps on our list, Amazon Photos does not have a free version but is included as an added bonus when you become an Amazon Prime subscriber, which costs about $49 a year. That is, if you have Amazon Prime, you have unlimited storage in Amazon Photos.

Amazon Photos makes backup copies of your photos in a similar way to how Google Photos does, being able to choose which folders you want to be included and which not and at original quality, and can also include videos.

#4 DubBox

In a somewhat more adventurous terrain, we have "the Dubox cloud", a virtually unknown application that belongs to PopIn Inc, which in turn is owned by Baidu Japan. For being so little known, it works reasonably well and allows you to automatically backup your photos (not your videos).

Unlike other apps on our list, there are no pricing plans and users receive 1 TB of free space to upload their photos or any other files. The files uploaded can be consulted both from the app and from the web version.

#5 Mega

Another option is to use the controversial MEGA service, which gives you 15 GB of free storage that can grow in a number of ways, such as adding your phone number to your profile. The app asks for too many permissions when you first open it, although most of them are optional and not necessary to back up your photos.

To activate camera backup, you must activate Camera uploads, which allows you to upload videos as well. In the settings, you can choose to upload other folders with photos, as well as if you want the original names of the files to be kept or if you want to include location tags.

#6 MediaFire

Mediafire is another cloud file hosting service that has moved to mobile and includes automatic photo synchronization. The app is a bit old-fashioned in terms of design, but it still works perfectly.

Mediafire gives 12 GB of free storage to users, with the possibility of receiving extra space. The application is a bit basic, allowing you to choose only if you want to make a copy of the camera and if you want it to be done only when connected to a Wi-Fi network.

#7 YandexDisk

Yandex Disk is something like the Google Photos of Russia, and it has very similar functions and even the interface is somewhat similar. This application allows you to make an unlimited backup of your photos.

An advantage of Yandex Disk over Google Photos is that it allows you to choose the size of the cache that it stores on your mobile, although uploading videos requires going through the checkout. This cloud storage gives 10 GB free to users

How to create and share twitter fleets?

Twitter is adding a story feature, which disappears in just 24 hours and is already present in many networks today. The difference is that here they are called 'Fleets'. Where are twitter fleets? Fleets are stories that disappear within 24 hours of being published.  Twitter is enabling fleets (profile stories) by regions and user groups, so it may be a matter of waiting a bit until you have them active.  Right now, fleets will be limited to the platform's official apps (as well as other features such as surveys and others), so they will not appear in third-party apps. Talon, Tweetbot, and the company will not have fleets in their applications unless Twitter decides to open access through its API. Once the fleets are active, they are visible in the main feed like Instagram status.  How to create fleets on Twitter? Finally, we are going to tell you how you can create your own fleets in Twitter mobile apps. To start with, we have several ways to create a new fleet on Twitter...
