Compatible with Android, iOS, Mac, and PC, its cross-platform nature gives users access to their full photo library wherever they are: work, home or on the go. Whether it’s through a web browser, a mobile app, or a desktop program, the service lets users beam their pics up to the cloud. Unlimited online photo storage is one of several lesser-known perks of Amazon Prime membership, though non-Prime customers can pay $12 a year for the same deal. It even has the ability to hunt down duplicate pictures to cut down on your digital clutter. Integrating into the company’s line of desktop and mobile apps, the service provides almost anything you’d want from a storage service, including access to Apple’s printing service and RAW file compatibility. There’s no comparing that to Amazon or Google’s free-for-unlimited-storage pricing, but as far as user-friendliness is concerned, iCloud’s photo storage can’t be beat - so long as you’re purely an Apple user. The latter backs up all your photos ever and is free if you only use five gigabytes of space - though who could get away with that little storage? It’s more likely that you’ll have to pay, which ranges from monthly charges of $.99 for 20 gigabytes to as high as one terabyte for $20. The former stores your 1,000 most recent photos in the cloud, making them accessible across all your devices for free. Actually, Apple has two online photo storage solutions: Photo Stream and iCloud Photo Library. If you’ve got any Apple handheld product, there’s a good chance that you’re already using this service (and you may not even realize it), through something called “Photo Stream.” This is representative of how convoluted and confusing Apple’s online photo storage options have become.
