Zero, I delete them from the phone after transferring them to my laptop. I am old.

DH does this and then backs the laptop up to an external hard drive, he doesn't use cloud storage

44,000!

Me too. I didn't know until reading this thread that people actually pay to store their photos in the cloud. Why on earth do you do that, when there is a free solution? Or don't you have laptops? I prefer looking at photos on a proper screen - and I use my laptop as a desktop computer by linking it to a much bigger screen ... so the photos are a really good size.

66,617 😁 but that's two kids' lives that I love to look back through. I go back and look at their birth photos at least once a month 🥰

I can't speak for everyone but I only have my work laptop which obviously I won't put private pictures on. I think that's the way the world's going now?

I can't relax with a laptop as I feel studying or working so I love to sit and look at them on my phone. I'm not young, not old.

I use iCloud because then I can see my photos on my iMac, iPhone or iPad but I generally only look at and edit my photos on my iMac as I prefer a large screen, iPhone is just a vehicle really to get the pictures to the large screen

3748 mostly of the Grandchildren.

Ah, so with using cloud storage you can look at them on different devices. That does make a bit more sense!

whswhs · 17/12/2024 22:09

55,000- have been trying to go through and delete lots!

StarryPotter · 17/12/2024 22:25

Almost 50k😳

Dh and I share iCloud storage, think it’s £9/£10 a month.

Most are of the dcs.
I love taking snaps, photos are important to me and every couple of months, I get loads printed out.
