I have been using Samsung now for a couple of years in line with the Google play store. But as these to companies grow I feel them moving further apart and the questions I sometimes have start to be harder to answer and when answered are confusing. I remember when you would just by something and right away you new it was yours and you could do as you pleased now you buy a product and you have to add other separate products to it(apps) to get its best potential and along the way it all becomes frustrating and at time's makes me so mad I just want to walk away. I feel like any photos I take on my phone should be mine and be easy to access and download at any time I want instead it seems that companies are holding are data hostage and are content to make steps like taking or downloading photos as hard as they can for the simple customers that aren't programmers or code writers. I'm also tired of 2 things working great one day and then the next somebody is changing things up and making harder on us IE THE CUSTOMERS

If you don't like any of the cloud backup services, you can always go out and buy a USBC thumb drive and back up all your photos there. However, you will need to carry that with you all the time if you want to access the photos on it. Or, get phone with a larger hard drive capacity. Either way, if something goes wrong with your phone, or something goes wrong with the USBC thumb drive, your photos are lost because you don't have a cloud backup.

No one is holding your stuff hostage. You can download it to any device at any time.  The more you want to do with your stuff, the more likely you are to have to buy an additional app.
