And then “Everything else you’re currently backing up to the Samsung Could will continue to be backed up there with no Storage Charge”. I store nothing in the Samsung cloud and expect to continue to store nothing in the ONeDrive cloud. You’re using it - do you know what the charges will be?Īnd that’s where it tells me what I’ve been seeking “After the move, Gallery will be continuously backed up to OneDrive.” I think/hope I can turn that off.
#Samsung backup to onedrive free#
“You’ll get 15gb free for a year” No mention how much it’ll cost after that. I happened to open the Samsung Drive and it says “no files” so I dunno where my backup stuff is going!! I see that it tells me “Make the move to MS OneDrive” and i see what’s going on, at last. Nope - I just checked and my new OneDrive account has three things: an empty directory “Documents”, and empty directory “Pictures” and a “Getting started with OneDrive” PDF. Under my OneDrive Photos folder, it created a subfolder called Samsung Gallery with all the photos and videos backed up from my phone. I got the same message of Samsung Cloud going away and prompting me to jump to OneDrive. Basically there’s no MS-ness on my devices ĭo you have any folders or files already stored in OneDrive, or just the ones that Samsung Cloud is supposed to be moving over?

The only thing I had to do was “connect” to the OneDrive cloud.
#Samsung backup to onedrive install#
What’s the alternative?Īnd I didn’t need to install the OneDrive app on either device. In order to backup/sync *SOME* cloud service has to bridge the devices. I don’t like MS much but I guess I dislike them less than google and since it seemed that Samsung was “greasing the path” to switching to OneDrive, I made OneDrive account. So samsung tells me they’re shutting down their cloud and explictly says “get a OneDrive” account. I thought that was great, because the only alternative at the time was to use the google cloud and have a low-level, gut distrust of google. What came with the tablet/phone is to use the Samsung cloud. The Backup/Sync stuff is built in and uses a cloud storage system to effect it. Really? Why would anyone use Microsoft drive anyway, anywhere… I’m sure that it is a “good” app, I’m sure it works, but more Microsoft? Throw the baby out with the bathwater.
