iCloud

I got tired of that message saying that I was running off of free storage space on iCloud. I upgraded my plan: 50GB for $0.99. I'll be ok for some months I guess.

That's why I went back to android. Hate running out of storage.

But in Android you don't have something like iCloud, do you?
The phone has 128gb of storage and you can save 5gb for free in the cloud to acces by iCloud, or upgrade your plan as I did. With android if I wanted to save my info in the cloud I had to use something like Google photos, they give you 15gb for free to save the photos/videos in the original size and it shares the storage space with gmail and google drive. If you wants more than that you have to pay so it's the same than Apple does.
I like that in iCloud I have all my info together without the need to sign and open every single thing one by one.
I like Google as well but I prefer iOS instead android.

You can put a memory card in the Android. I have a galaxy s8. I'm not sure how much storage it has but I've yet to run out of space and I have pics on here from 2 professionally photo shoots, which usually have around 80 pics. Plus I take pics of Colette every day. I use Google photos, but I think you can download and use I cloud too. Idk I use Google photos when I had iPhone too, because I already had it. Google photos is completely free. I have years and years of pictures on there.

I had a 128gb memory card in my old Samsung. Problem isn't with the cellphone storage but the storage in the cloud. What I don't like about google photos is that it takes photos from other google products that you use too, and also if someone else wants to share a photo with me (with my email who everybody uses for everything although I don't know them ) I'll see their photos in my albums. I can delete them but it's annoying that google add those photos there without ask for confirmation.

You need that much storage? 128gb plus 5gb and another 50gb? That's a lot. Are they all pictures and videos?

Yes I need because I am very lazy to download the photos on my computer. My cellphone has very good camera with HD resolution, this is why my photos and videos size are too large.

What kind of stuff are you putting on icloud? Oh, from other comments, I guess photos. I tend to use 'airdrop' to put photos onto my computer although I use a cord occasionally. I am nervous about security issues and do not currently have my photos backed up to icloud. But i'm probably not a big risk, either -- people are not swarming to find any personal photos I might have.

Photos and videos mostly, but I dont have a iMac so I guess I could not use airdrop to transfer files, right?

Seems like you couldn't use airdrop to the pc, but you might be able to use a different app

Disclaimer: I read about it but haven't looked carefully. Seems most people like it, some don't.
