Sync - Secure cloud storage

Cloud files from your phone

Sync is a cloud-storage app for people who want to keep files available across devices and share them with others. From an Android phone or tablet, you can reach files stored in your Sync account, upload photos and videos, and send links to large files. Shared folders also support collaboration with other people or a team.

Privacy and sharing

Sync says its storage uses end-to-end encryption, so the company cannot read the contents of your files. Access controls are part of the service’s approach to protecting stored material and managing who can reach shared files. That makes the app relevant for users who want cloud access without treating a shared link as unrestricted access. As with any storage service, check the service’s privacy policy and sharing settings before placing sensitive material in an account.

Who it may suit

The app is aimed at people who need mobile access to documents, photos or videos they keep in cloud storage, and at users who exchange files through links or shared folders. It is less useful if you only want to manage files on one device and do not need cloud access or collaboration. The listing describes a free storage allowance, but the amount and any account limits should be checked in the service’s current terms.

Listing record

Sync - Secure cloud storage is published by Sync.com Inc. in Productivity. The listing shows a rating of 3.88 out of 5 from 5,431 reviews, with 1,000,000+ installs. Those figures give a sense of the app’s reach and user response, but they do not establish whether its features or policies fit your needs. Its stated focus is encrypted storage, access across devices and controlled file sharing.
