FREE UP SPACE
IceCream allows you to FREE UP precious space on your iPhone. The app tells you how many photos you have space to take, and then allows you to FREE UP more space or storage without having to delete precious photos, videos or apps.
We do this in a clever powerful way that allows you to keep every single photo on your iPhone, and have them all viewable, even when you are offline. IceCream allows you to generate beautiful, optimised versions of all your photos that stay on your iPhone, inside the IceCream app, while the much larger original photos, are stored in the secure IceCream Cloud. That means you can still find, view and share all your photos from your iPhone, but all the big photo files are safe in the IceCream Cloud where only you can access them.
SEND TONNES OF PHOTOS, FAST
The IceCream app is designed to send a lot of photos, fast: send up to 100 at a time. We know that you want to be able send and share photos faster, better and more simply ~ and have them conveniently organised automatically. Our unique IceCream technology allows you to send more photos, faster - and at the same time photos take up less precious storage space on your iPhone.
FREE PHOTO BACKUPS
Whenever you use the IceCream Camera, we make sure that your precious photos are backed up in original, full resolution to the IceCream Cloud for FREE. You no longer have to remember to backup, because we do it for you. If you want to check your original photos, all you need to do is head over to https://givemeicecream.com and hit the login link. From there you can privately check all your photos, and conveniently download them.
SAFE AND PRIVATE
To make things more secure, we use two-factor authentication: that means we send you an SMS message with a secure code before you can download your photos.
Latest reviews of IceCream - Backup Photos and Videos, Free Up Space in a Few Taps app for iPhone and iPad
No why is that. Do you want to call me? This is the first storage asking for my telephone number. Just imagine I am on an iPad WiFi wanting to use the app. Why should I add a telephone number just to store some pictures? Deleted
I like it so far; I at least get to keep my pictures on my phone when I normally would have run out of space. If you want to share a picture in some way that is only in the app youll have to import it back to camera roll. I dont know what security is like, but Im not to concerned considering I dont have anything risky to be worried about. The social media bit where it has its own form of messenger is kind of pointless, but maybe its because I dont have any friends who use it. Over all quite good.
Love the update! Wish I could still use the app with Location/privacy setting turned off, otherwise it eats up my battery life :(
Good concept to back up photos and gain device storage, so one star for attempt. But, to have application always running in background? Umm, no. I am a computer user who is very security minded, so as it is, location data is already turned off for photos. As a rule, applications never run in the background gathering location data, and putting a drain on the battery.
At first I had thought this was a good app. It did back up all my photos and created space but then I logged out and I tried to log back in. When I tried to log back in it would say could not connect to server.!
