ThePhotoStick® Omni 128GB Flash Drive & Memory Stick – Photo & Video Backup USB for iPhone, Android, Mac & PC – Multiport Connection for Easy File Storage & Transfer

Seeing all the bad reviews, I went ahead and took a chance it works great. I downloaded over 5000 pictures and it took probably 10 minutes to download everything. The only difference is I downloaded the mobile app instead of the regular app and it just went right in and perfect gonna give this one to my sister and I’m gonna order the bigger the bigger size the 512.

I purchased this backup device to save my wife's and my phone photos and save them on our home computers. I have a Pixel 8 and she has an iPhone 14. So we need one piece of equipment to work with two different systems. this product does it. After downloading the app to make the life pack up product work it took me about 10 minutes to master the app and started downloading files. I was able to back up both phones in about 15 minutes. I would recommend this product to anyone. Great product at a reasonable price for what it does (saves memories and important files that can be easily accessed).

Worked, kind of, initially but, after a short while, quit altogether. This app/device is a serious resource hog, which won’t let go of those resources, and ultimately puts a serious drain on the battery. Backing up the photos was easy enough, albeit a sloooooowwww process, but don’t even try creating albums and moving photos to those albums. That’s when everything came to a screeching halt. The app doesn’t work at all now and, even though I’m no longer attempting to use it, my battery shows that PhotoStick is using 70% of my its capacity. Pinterest only shows 3% and I’m a serious Pinterest junky. Hmmm! Oh… and a word about the app itself… it’s awful. Poorly designed and not well thought out. The initial backup and album creation parts were OK but moving the photos over to created albums was not intuitive and cumbersome. And, as a bit of cred on my part, I am a software engineer in a career that spanned about 30 years. As an FYI, I am using an iPhone 14Pro. Parting words: I am deleting the app so I can get my resources back and take the drain off my battery. Ugh!

This photo stick works as advertised and was easy to use with the app. I was able to free up about 2.1gbs when my icloud couldn't be saved to.It was quick to set up and begin downloading photos.I did not like that I had to choose each photo to move, which was time consuming. I did like that it was easy to do as well as downloading multiple files.If a whole folder could be downloaded at one touch, this would be 5 stars.

easy to pair with IPHONE

The media could not be loaded. My sister is very non-technical, so when she said she wanted a photostick, I knew she was looking for a complete plug and play device. This sounded like just the thing, but I decided I would test and make a little video for her in case she had trouble. I have a fairly new Android phone, so I didn't anticipate any problems. Generally, the problem is that the phone doesn't recognize the Photostick drive. I did all the things suggested--delete the app and reinstall. Unplug and replug the device. I thought it was a bad stick, so I tried it on my PC. Worked like a charm there, but that is not what I was trying to back up. Back to the phone, I tried a generic USB stick to see if the phone could even detect USB drives. It does--just not the Photostick. When I use the back arrow, to go back to the main menu, I get this message: "An error occurred selecting the root folder. Please try again". I have already been through the tutorial and troubleshooting online, but didn't find a solution. So, for my phone, it doesn't work. I am afraid to send it to my sister, because if it doesn't work immediately out of the box, she won't know what to do.I have an old phone I used before I bought the new one and decided to test it on that one. I had better luck with that one. At first I had the same problem with it, but by leaving the stick plugged in while I restarted the phone, it then recognized the stick and it worked as advertised. Based on testing with 2nd phone, I would have given it 4 stars.If I were buying it for my phone 1 star, for my old phone 4 stars. I am going to send it to my sister, but I think there is a 50/50 chance that it will work (an expensive experiment).

Convenient

The Pho tu I stick has a. Erynpoor documentation and the product support is completely unreliable. When you send them an email, they provide you in their with their opening hours as if you tried to call them by phone and they provide no indication that they will provide you with a reply. Try to avoid buying this product if you need technical support.
