Have you got a Samsung Galaxy smartphone? Lucky you as it means that you get 5 GB worth of space on your smartphone. There are various ways for you to utilize this space, such as storing your pictures, music or audios, contacts, numerous apps, and the list goes on. However, for many users, this limited storage might not be enough which is why Samsung offers the facility of saving excess data on Samsung Cloud.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

You must be wondering how this mechanism works. For your assistance, we have compiled a comprehensive list explaining how to go about this feature.<\/span><\/p>\n

Product Spotlight (Duplicate Files):<\/strong> <\/span>Use Sorcim’s Clone Files Checker<\/a> to clean empty folder and remove 1000s of duplicate documents in your PC.<\/p>\n

Clone Files Checker follows Google Software Principles. It will not ask you to provide email address to download the software.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

How do I use Samsung Cloud?<\/b><\/p>\n

Besides serving as a backup option in case of insufficient storage, Samsung Cloud also offers the opportunity of protecting our data in case of phone theft or a system failure. Our data can easily be retrieved if the phone gets lost or goes through any other damage, so it is not necessary to carry the device if we want to access all the data.<\/span><\/p>\n

The only requirements needed are a stable Internet connection and login details. Furthermore, Samsung Cloud does not need to be connected to a Personal Computer by going through the hassle of connecting USB cables every now and then. To retrieve the data from another device, you just need to log in to our Galaxy account. The wireless data recovering process is extremely user-friendly. A suitable expression for this process will be that our data is stored in the Cloud. This is how you resume your tasks directly from the point you last worked on them.<\/span><\/p>\n

Initially, this facility was available only through smartphones and tablets. However, due to recent updates, you can now gain access from computers as well. For browsers, an extended security measure is added for the protection of our personal data. We only have to enter a password just once, registered via our contact numbers\/email. The details of this Username and Password are stored in our computer\u2019s memory permanently.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you opt for the storage plan which offers 50 GB, you need to pay $0.99 per month. For upgrading to the 250 GB plan, you need to pay $2.99 per month.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

        Option 2: Eliminate duplicate copies on this Cloud<\/b><\/p>\n

        When organizing files, duplicate images and documents cause a major hassle. The issue is prevalent regardless of what device we use; when you use Samsung Cloud for a couple of years, this might result in the accumulation of a lot of unnecessary duplicates. Deleting these files helps massively in retaining more storage for our Samsung Cloud account. This is how you can utilize more space without upgrading your account. Moreover, as we delete these files, our processor responsiveness increases allowing us to enjoy better web surfing and faster app usage. Search results also tend to get faster without any hanging issues.<\/span><\/p>\n

        Following are the steps for getting rid of duplicate files:<\/span><\/p>\n

        Step 1: Enter your login details on the Cloud<\/b><\/p>\n

          \n
        • For PC, select Google Chrome web browser.<\/span><\/li>\n
        • After searching for the Cloud website, you need to click on it.<\/span><\/li>\n
        • Tap the option of Sign In.<\/span><\/li>\n
        • Enter your Samsung Cloud login details and Sign in.<\/span><\/li>\n
        • You will need to enter the password only once on Samsung Cloud through your phone number or email id that you have registered or the one that you used for your initial login.<\/span><\/li>\n
        • Type the password and you\u2019ll be able to sign in.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

           <\/p>\n

          Step 2: Download files as you normally do<\/b><\/p>\n

            \n
          • As soon as you get logged in, go to the Gallery on your Samsung Galaxy phone.<\/span><\/li>\n
          • Select the desired number of files you want to download; tap the O button so that you can choose multiple files simultaneously.<\/span><\/li>\n
          • Click on Download.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

            Note:<\/strong><\/span><\/em> The highest number of files you can download is 500. These files can also be downloaded concurrently.<\/span><\/p>\n

             <\/p>\n

            Step 3: Scan the files for any duplicates<\/b><\/p>\n

            Important Note: In case you are not comfortable with downloading all files on the device, you can use <\/span>Cloud Duplicate Finder<\/b> to scan and delete duplicates on OneDrive or you can simply follow these steps:<\/span><\/p>\n

              \n
            • Search for <\/span>Clone Files Checker<\/b> on Google.<\/span><\/li>\n
            • Select the Add icon which is towards the left, choose the destination folder which will contain all the Samsung Cloud files that have been downloaded.<\/span><\/li>\n
            • Following the selection of the destination folder, you may select any variety of scan filters available.<\/span><\/li>\n
            • Use the All Files option through which you can search all types of files to gain as much storage as possible.<\/span><\/li>\n
            • Use the Custom option to select the type(s) of individual files for duplicate scanning. This feature makes it easier to view the search results and takes less time.<\/span><\/li>\n
            • Click on Start Search.<\/span><\/li>\n
            • Once the scan has been done, click the Review & Fix button in the scan results pop-up.<\/span><\/li>\n
            • Click the Select Duplicates button and choose an option on which kind of files (newest, oldest, most modified, least modified, select by location) you want to retain from each duplicate group.<\/span><\/li>\n
            • Click Select Action and choose between permanently deleting the duplicates or moving them to a folder.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

               <\/p>\n

              Step 4: File Upload<\/b><\/p>\n

              Once you have removed your duplicate files and freed up space on your Samsung Cloud accoun<\/span>t, you can upload them again on Samsung Cloud.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
