often fails to upload, so you try to upload and it duplicates files. When you want to delete file to start again it won't allow you until you've deleted files in folder however you can't select all! you hahe to select and delete each file one by one which takes far to long if you have hundreds and hundreds of files in one folder. AVIOD.
UPDATE: since the last update, the Livedrive app on my Chromebook does not back up files. "The battery is too low to start a backup." UPDATE 2: This Chromebook issue was resolved. Everything backs up as it should!
Reliable and easy to use. It has features that more expensive apps do not have. I appreciate the availability of the app on my mobile devices and the ability to view pictures without having to download them first. Highly recommend.
Almost perfect. Multiple uploads on Android would give it a 5.
Why are download speeds so low? Wifi - full signal!
Useless app cancel my free trial now
Does the job
Love it
Streaming video is back working in full screen on S5. Though it does still sign you out on each phone switch off/on, other than that a great product & service.
It works fine for me. I can see all the files in my briefcase and backup section. No problem to stream them directly.
Why is this not working anymore. It's been months since it's backed things up on my phone or computer. I haven't gotten any useful response from the customer support emails.
The list of folders doesn't show the path of the original. When backups include the folders from various users, folders like Documents, Pictures etc can't be differentiated. Also the spec says that photos are backed up automatically from phones and tablets. Buy I can't find any record of them in Restore.
Can't do much with the app. Doesn't upload from a folder on your cellphone to a folder within live drive. Can't copy paste file nor folder. Doesn't show preview of PDF files like it does with pictures.... Just to name a few problems......
No Mobile Backup on Note 4?
Mobile backup doesn't work with the integrated sd feature of marshmallow, keeps saying "failed to query external storage". Needs fixing to allow internal storage to be selectable, at least the DCIM folder...
Used to be excellent. 5 stars. But now my pc version has stopped working, and I can't login either on PC or mobile. No response to password reset. What's going on?
Until the briefcase works as good as Google drive then only 2 stars. Can't move, upload to a specific folder, as part of android explorer/es explorer.
Some earlier reviews highlighted some problems but since installing it on my Moto earlier this month it's worked fine.
After update i am now able to login again. I don't Recieve the error message Anymore. Works great. Thanks
The application is great. But I have a grudge table player of the application does not support the FLAC format. I hope, and it will be possible.
Can't login. Keep saying my credentials are wrong
Greatly improved!
Love the new feature, I would however comment on the low upload speed (<150kB/s on Galaxy S5). Also I haven't been able to upload more than a file at once. Option to upload whole folder would be much appreciated.
The old version worked just fine, but this is a long awaited update that takes Livedrive into the 21st century.
It would be simpler if pressing the files opened them instead of having to press and hold for the dialogue box. Can't see why the default option is to get to the file details.
New design looks good. Mobile backup shall be configurable, for example I just want to backup photos I take with my phone and not 10 GB of photos I already have on my PC. Thanks Stefan
Says my credentials are wrong even though they work on Web page fine. Even tried changing password and still says there wrong
It's about time they added the mobile backup feature. Thanks!
Do not trust livedrive to actually back up your data. I have been using it for years, believing my files were safely backed up. integrity checks confirming everything was OK. my HD failed, so I tried to restore to a new disk. only now Livedrive reports that 22000 files out of 30000 were never backed up successfully! what is the point of backup software that does not actually back up your files? I have tried contacting support, but have had no response at all. Avoid this company at all costs
