As of today, I’ve got 247,564 images in my Mylio catalog synchronized across two iPhones, one iPad (3rd Gen - 16GB), two laptops and one desktop computer. Over the last 3 months that I’ve been using Mylio, I’ve learned how this product really works and how that vision is indeed possible, but there’s also ways to only share what you want between devices too.įor starters, Mylio only shares small thumbnails with your mobile devices by default. When I first heard that statement at WPPI 2015 in Las Vegas, I thought – I don’t’ want that!!!!!! The reason why is because I thought that my storage strapped mobile devices didn’t have the space to store all of the photos, and what a pain it would be to navigate all of that mess on them. Mylio is a product that runs on computers and mobile devices that syncs ALL of your photos between ALL devices of them ALL of the time. Wouldn’t it be great to solve the chaos that exists with images scattered everywhere and lost for years or even decades? I’ve been wanting to build a product that solved that problem for years, but until now it didn’t exist.īear with me in this long article as I introduce you to the first product to solve the headache that plagues every person who takes photos. These are memories, and they exist only on digital devices in ways that aren’t easy to view. My wife has images on her phone of the kids that were taken while I was working that I’ve never seen either. I’ve also got countless images that I’ve taken that the world has never seen, and in some cases I’ve never seen since I took them off my memory card.
Even in the most optimistic case where you have the fastest internet service known to mankind and they won’t shut you down for uploading all your photos to the cloud, how long will that really take? What’s more, we’ve seen how secure iCloud can be, so do you really want your unencrypted photos in the cloud for hackers to access? Many real photographers don’t just have photos measured in gigabytes – they have terrabytes of photos.
MYLIO REVIEWS SOFTWARE
It’s a big mess trying to keep track of them all, so usually you don’t realize what a poor job you are doing of backing things up until a device crashes.Įven a geek like me who has over 25 years of software development experience – including data protection products – has faced that sinking feeling that photos were lost when a phone was stolen or Drobo crashes ( see my story on Scott Kelby’s blog).Īpple’s iCloud, Google Photos, Microsoft’s OneDrive, Adobe Lightroom Mobile and others all make the promise that they are going to protect your photos, but let’s get real for a moment. We have images everywhere from our phone, our significant others phone, desktop computers at home & work, laptops, tablets, and backup devices.
If you read this blog then odds are you love photography, so that means you most likely have photos scattered all over a variety of devices.
