Backup is really important when using any gadget such as a smartphone or PC. We always end up storing a number of photos that are important to us. People always step back and think hard before permanently deleting any photo from their smartphones. Thankfully, due to cloud backup, we can easily move or copy our favorite photos online. Even if the photo on the smartphone gets deleted, you still have it on the cloud storage. Google Drive is massively popular for allowing to store almost anything on it. Hence a lot of people use it. However, Google also offers exclusive cloud backup for photos in the form of Google Photos.
