    Am I the only person on earth running out of 2TBs of ICloud storage?

    Posted: 29 Jan 2022 07:21 PM PST

    It's 2022 and photos and videos are taking up huge amounts of data. I have always backed up my photos to my computer and back up those photos to back up drives. I have 8Tb HDDs and 4Tb SSDs. But over the last few years it has become harder and harder to back up files from my iPhone. Connecting my phone and transferring them back in 2010 to around 2015 used to work but would take forever. But after 2015 it almost became impossible doing it via the cord. Once the lightning cable came out I had to add a PCI USB c to my computer thinking all my photo transferring problems would come to an end…. I was wrong, it was the early days of USB c so I thought it was the PCI card. I ended up upgrading my computer to one that had a USB c just so I can transfer photos. I was so excited, I had over 500Gbs of photos at the time and was finally ready to back them up. Needless to say I couldn't get it to work. It would go halfway through and give me errors and then I was getting confused on what was saved and what wasn't saved.

    This wasn't a cheap computer either it had 32gbs of ram with 2TB ssd. So after researching I found out you can go to iCloud and download 1000 photos at a time and have been doing that ever since.

    But the problem I face now is I have to back up to OG HDD drives since SSDs have their own issues but still back them up again to an SSD since it's faster.

    Fast forward now to 2022 and hard drives really haven't grown the way 4K and 5k videos & photos have. I don't mind shelling out a couple hundred to back up my data but the iCloud just hasn't grown at the same pace as either. Also 1000 photos at a time when you have 30,000 photos is taking up a huge amount of time.

    Everyone that I talk to says I am crazy to have filled up 2TBs of iCloud so maybe I am in that small % that has used that much but mark my word in the next couple years a lot more people will be agreeing with me.

    Just fyi when I back up my phone I normally delete 75% of my photos normally only keeping my favorites that I have saved.

    As most of us iPhone fans know Apple just brought in boatloads of mula, I think they should double their icloud space across the board and maybe offer more options that go way beyond what they offer now.

    Anyone else getting close to filling up their icloud? Anyone suggest other options? Anyone on here know of a better way of storing all of this? I always think about if I were to print even half my photos how much it would cost. Although most are videos so I really don't know what to do. Lol

    export text conversation?

    Posted: 29 Jan 2022 07:34 PM PST

    Hello. I'm new to this subreddit. I couldn't find this topic discussed before. I apologize if it has, but I need some help.

    I've just lost my best friend. We had a text conversation going back months and months. I'm hoping to save this, perhaps as a PDF, so I don't inadvertently delete it.

    I use an iPhone, but she used Android, so this is SMS. It looks like I'd have to go message by message in the native app, which just isn't practical. There are third-party apps, but I don't know where to start. Ideally I'd like an app that doesn't cost too much.

    Does anyone have a suggestion or opinion on how to go about this? I also have a MacBook Pro, if that makes any difference. Thank you.

    Reprice: a new beautiful Amazon Price Tracker

    Posted: 30 Jan 2022 01:25 AM PST

    On the desktop there are multiple browser extensions that provide this service but in the mobile world there was no app that satisfied me on both UI and features. So, I tried to create an alternative with the app Reprice.

    After selecting an Amazon product using the integrated Amazon Browser, you can choose to be notified on every price change or when it drops under a set value. It considers shipping price and allows you to get notified if the seller is Amazon, Amazon Warehouse, Third parties or all sellers.

    I care about UI and I think Reprice is nice from this point of view but any feedback is appreciated. It's free and you can track up to 4 products at the same time without paying anything (in-app purchase if you need more).

    Here's the Apple Store Link

    Do you think it's a valid alternative to Keepa or CamelCamelCamel on mobile? Which features would you like to see improved?
