Copying of files is completely manual and dependent on the user. It's not really a 'backup' in that it won't automatically sync.

The first catch of course, unsaid, is that after using their service for a few years they will charge to keep you existing photos - the free is most likely temporary. It seems to me there would be some kind of catch.

I just found out that Amazon has a service for unlimited backing up of full resolution photos. This is how faces and things appear to search for photos. I actually find this feature very helpful. I wouldn't be surprised to find that just about all Web photo sharing/storage sites, especially 'free' ones, were using uploaded programs for AI training.

I was surprised when my iPhone came up with new collections of photos that I didn't ask it to make. I doubt if they're the only ones doing this. When enabled, you agree that the Services may use image recognition technology to group together photos containing people with similar facial characteristics, and to organize and tag your photos.'ДЄmazon Help & Customer Service вЂ“ Amazon Photos Terms of Use 'The Services may provide auto-organization features and functionality, including features and functionality that allow you to sort your photos by the people, objects, and scenes in those photos and the metadata associated with those photos.

from Amazon, instead of from other vendors.ДЄmazon Help & Customer Service вЂ“ What is Amazon Photos?ДЄmazon might use your photos to train their AI programs on how to recognize people, objects, and scenes. You can 'create custom keepsakes such as prints and holiday cards using your favorite photos,' so Amazon is probably hoping that people who store their personal photos in Amazon Photos will buy prints, holiday cards, etc.

'Amazon Photos is for your personal, non-commercial use only вЂ¦ you cannot use it with a professional photography business or other commercial service.' Google Photos will end its free unlimited storage on June 1st, 2021 Google is also introducing a new policy of deleting data from inactive accounts that havenвЂ™t been logged in to for at least two years.' The change will happen on June 1st, 2021, and it comes with other Google Drive policy changes like counting Google Workspace documents and spreadsheets against the same cap. Of offering unlimited free photo backups at вЂњhigh quality,вЂќ Google Photos will start charging for storage once more than 15 gigs on the account have been used. Get a few million hooked, then jack up the price or at the very least make it mandatory to pay monthly (rather than occasionally) There is a huge jump for 10 bucks to 150 bucks and a 2TB threshold will be easy to pass if five years. I could easily see 2 TB being included with prime forever, to make them more competitive vs google Certainly with new cameras and raw you can can do a 400 gig card pretty fast so over 2 TB will be the norm in a few years.ДЄfter they jack up the price you have to pay for a while, as moving your 4 TB + of photos is a huge investment in time and energy. However based on google et al I say its temporary, and any major investment in time will be quite expensive later. A service for 20 bucks per year assuming you ok uploading once a year -using it as extra backup ( I would never use cloud for more than an extra option)Д«ut even if you have prime compared to other photo uploading services it seems cheap. Maybe its temporaryДЄs well you only need to use PRIME for one month, upload photos, then upload again, years later and/or retrieve photos. I have the tablet and they offered the photos upload. It seems that you get the backup photos if you buy there tablet - with or whiteout the prime subscription. Great bargain if you are a Prime customer. Maybe I just missed the option, but is there a way to say don't back up videos?Д«TW, Amazon photos includes backup of RAW files. My only issue is Amazon keeps bugging me to pay for video storage. The Windows upload app can be a little crazy at times but it works. I have used the prime backup for many years. Also, that plan limits storage for files of any other types (video, for example) to 5GB. You have to pay for a Prime subscription in order to get the 'free' unlimited photo storage. But what is the catch in the immediate now?
