They missed the thing with storage. Android makes it difficult to route pictures and videos anywhere other than Google photos. Which pretty quickly fills up your free 15GB storage quota. It then nags for paid storage. Technically savvy folks find ways to get around this. But, it traps a fair number of people into paying for storage they don't really need.
- leptons 3y ago>Android makes it difficult to route pictures and videos anywhere other than Google photos. How?? I take photos, they are stored on my phone, and I can share them to any of a a few dozen apps I've installed that have nothing to do with Google. My photos also sync to a local NAS every night, thanks to another non-Google app that was pretty easy to set up. I haven't ever used Google Photos and my use of photos isn't hindered at all.
- andrew_ 3y ago> Android makes it difficult to route pictures and videos anywhere other than Google photos I've been an android user for well over 10 years and find this to be wholly inaccurate. I have pictures backing up automatically in three different places with no friction whatsoever. Be it Google Drive, iCloud, OneDrive, Dropbox, or Amazon - you pay for cloud storage. This is a known fact.
