I’ve always had a love-hate relationship with my cell phone. As in, I love it and it hates me.
My phone ran away from home a couple months ago and have been using a backup for a while. Losing a phone always hurts more when you have pictures you hadn’t saved to the computer yet.
I’ve written before about the instant-upload feature on Google+. Last time I had a phone incident, I was able to view my pictures in Google+ still because they were automatically uploaded to a private album whenever I took them. It was nice to have them, but they weren’t full resolution. Not anymore!!
Setting up my new phone last week, I noticed there is an option to turn on full-resolution instant-uploads to Google+. Whaaaa? I am SO excited about this because I now have a full backup in case anything happens to my phone. Theoretically, I can also organize the pictures onto my hard drive without ever having to plug the phone into my computer!
Read instructions on how to turn on full-resolution instant-upload here. There are some storage limits, so I’ll have to make sure and go online and delete ones I don’t want.
Google+ is owned by Google. I work for Google. My affiliation with Google in no way affects or sways my opinions on its products. The opinions expressed here are my own.
I’m definitely going to check this out! Thanks.
You should! It’s saved me twice already!
Same thing as my cloud option for my iPhone!!! so glad that you found that feature!
I figured there was something similar for the iPhone!
