Should at least offer 10-15GB as the fee tier at least, it’s 2023. Or add 5GB per owned/registered and in use device.
There really should be something in the 500GB-1TB range for like $5-6 or at least just allow people to buy multiples of the lower tiers
Please. And the 200GB price should get bumped down to $2 to match Google’s low-tier pricing.
It’s incredibly silly that you can just run out of the top iCloud storage tiers. It’s not something most people will run into probably… but it’s really weird that they won’t just sell you more. Glad there’s some higher tiers now, but I hate bucket sizes like this. I wish it was more granular and we paid per byte or something.
But that way they cannot charge you for the storage you don’t use
This is almost certainly the primary reason why they do this… It’s just a dick move. Especially since, sure, per byte the accounting gets more complicated… but there’s no reason to not let people buy storage in reasonably sized increments. Even 50gb at a time would be an improvement.
hey so what are you guys using to back up your iphones or at least the photos? i guess some of you use a mac or a NAS with some kind of software? or are we all paying clpud subscriptions?
PhotoSync app with a nas
icloud 200gb and photoprism for the rest
PCloud, once in a lifetime payment. Quite happy with it and works well with RSync
Just buy it on black friday as it's usually their lowest "on sale" price (they are always on sale it seems)
