I've tried iCloud, Onedrive, Google Photos. Out of all these three, I stuck with Google Photos on my Iphone.
iClouds bad pricing and storage issues led me to switch to Google Photos, It's way better. The lack of native support on iOS can be a little cumbersome though.
The only thing I wish these cloud providers offered was a way to deduplicate photos / videos. That would make my life so much easier.

- Alifatisk 3y agoWhat makes it worse is even if you run a deduplication app on the folder your syncing to Google Photos, the synchronization is one way only, so the changes does not remove the duplicated items on Google Photos.
- ezfe 3y agoiCloud Photos has deduplication
- nytesky 3y agoYeah I ran it and shrunk my library by half. It was kinda scary since I had 100000 photos, I couldn’t really inspect the process
- treesknees 3y agoI've used an app called PhotoSweeper[1]. It can access your Photos library directly. You can manually review them side-by-side or let it run automatically. You can also set thresholds of % similarity to reduce false removals. I believe it can also move the duplicates into a separate album for review later. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/photosweeper/id463362050?mt=12 https://apps.apple.com/us/app/photosweeper/id463362050?mt=12
- ezfe 3y agoIt literally shows each photo set it thinks are duplicates, you can literally manually verify
- nytesky 3y agoI didn’t have time to manually verify 10s of 1000s of duplicates. I spot checked and it looked fine..
