So apple have Icloud which allows easy access and downloads, sync
We have now Google drive or one drive. Samsung going backwards, will make it a lot harder when upgrading and going through all the photos to put back on your phone.
I'm having the same issues. When I received the message about samsung cloud ending and to sync with one drive. I did this both times I received the message. I have lost pictures, however I have some? Any ideas why?
Go to files Internal storage Dcim That's where your pics should be on device.
This is very poor from Samsung, nothing to do a basic transfer of photos. I have just bought c drive USB storage and I will download directly onto that along with gdrive.
This is not good Samsung
I could never see apple getting rid of Icloud can you
My advice is back up in multiple places use Google photos for photos etc. Google one will back your phone up like contacts messages etc very much like icloud does
