You can also initiate a one-time backup on this screen.
Backup designates a certain folder for Amazon to watch and sync additions to the cloud automatically. There are three functions within the Amazon Photos desktop app. Enjoy the peace of mind that comes with having your photos backed up to the cloud + accessible on any device!. – I recommend changing the ‘Backup Destination’ to be the Parent Amazon folder (see settings below). 
Enable the Backup function for the folder(s) containing photos on your computer.- You may need to un-check the defaults and click ‘Choose a Folder…” to locate your folder.
Download the Amazon Photos program to your desktop computer. Enable Auto-Sync for both photos and videos. Download the Amazon Photos app to your phone. You can also search by place or by person (automatic facial recognition): None of these photos have the term ‘birthday’ in the filename or metadata. The example below shows the search ‘birthday’ returned lots of images- my son’s first birthday cake smash, my 30th birthday party with family, etc. You can type in a keyword and it’ll search the VISUAL COMPONENTS of your photos- it’s pretty amazing. Searching by keyword, location, or person. In Photos view you can search your files by face, place, date, or keyword. The PHOTOS VIEW can be seen in the Amazon Photos app or by clicking on ‘Amazon Photos’ from. The FOLDER VIEW can be seen using the Amazon Drive app or by going to. Amazon Prime Photos gives you an option to view your files in two ways- a FOLDER VIEW and a PHOTOS VIEW. I keep my photos organized in folders by month/year on my computer and I really prefer that format. Plus, the Amazon Photos phone app will auto-sync all your phone photos + videos to the cloud as well. Using the Amazon Photos desktop app, you can designate a folder for Amazon to watch- any time you add files into this folder, it automatically adds them to the cloud. Amazon Cloud Backup Featuresįor Prime Members, unlimited photo storage is free and it will only cost $12 to include videos too (up to 100 GB). Prices are reasonable for non-Prime members too (a 1TB plan costs $60 a year).īut my love for Amazon Photos extends well beyond the affordable price tag. Did you know Amazon Prime membership includes UNLIMITED photo storage? It was that claim which led me to investigate Amazon’s backup services a few years ago and it turns out… the backup service is pretty amazing.
