5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to use for enjoyment and personal protection.

This may be one of the best Prime offerings. After I take pictures with my Android smart phone, the pictures or videos are there on the Prime Cloud. I can see them on my Chrome Book, android or my Fire tablet.

Besides have great Cloud storage, there are other security reasons to use Prime Photos.

We live in N. California where the big fires happened in October. Our home was not harmed. We were advised by some friends who lost their home to get pictures/videos of the outside and do a walk through video inside with pictures and valuables. They had pictures that were destroyed in the fire.

Another friend, who now lives in hurricane prone Florida, advised me to use Amazon Prime to store the videos, as they would not be destroyed or locked in a bank deposit box whose keys got destroyed.

I did that and both videos were uploaded to Amazon Prime and are there now.

Another friend lives in a town with a well known tourist area where there are a lot of walking tourists. The town installed the new flashing amber lights that pedestrians trigger by pushing button to cross the street in cross walks.

The friend was walking with out of town family, and they were walking in the cross walk with the flashing lights. A really big guy about hit them with his convertible in the cross walk. They and other people yelled at him, and he stopped his car was getting out to kick some you know what. Our friend and his wife had their phones out and were taking pictures of the jerk, Other people were doing the same thing. Our friend told the threatening jerk that he was now on Amazon Prime's Cloud and probably Google. So he might want to get back into his car and leave. Our friend said at least 6 other people had their smart phone cameras taking pictures of the jerk.

The jerk got back into his car and drove away.

Even if you don't need Amazon for protection, you can enjoy have your photos/videos on the Amazon Cloud quickly

I like using this app. I think it's wonderful for backing up your photos which it can be set to do automatically or just back up automatically when plugged into the charger. One thing I would like though is away to sort the photos after there uploaded a little better. It's difficult and o go through them all if you have A LOT of photos. Overall it works great other then needing a better way to sort them it's a great app

What a pleasure it is to be able to access photos from such a wide variety of devices. From my echo show, to smart phones, tablets etc. Even the uploading is easy. Image quality is excellent for the devices I use and the face recognition is a nice touch. I have thousands of images and this not only places them in the cloud but helps find them when I need to search.

4.0 out of 5 stars Love Amazon Photos
Reviewed in the United States on August 30, 2020
Verified Purchase
The features are superb and we constantly are teling friends on the ease of use. However, we've had some issues with not realizing when you delete even while in an album, you're deleting permanently in all albums. We're trained now to remove from album instead but it was frustrating.
Another issue has been that photos got duplicated some how. I wish it would warn you before adding duplicates because it's hard to know which duplicate to delete and what albums you impact. I'd like to see an option by picture to see what albums it's under.
Overall LOVE and totally happy with Amazon Photo.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic photo storage. Top notch.
Reviewed in the United States on September 8, 2018
Verified Purchase
I love everything about this product. At first I was just trying it to see how it worked. I have my pics stored in various ways-disks, subs, external hard drives, so I believe in storage. It took awhile to get all my pics uploaded, but, to be fair, I have over 105,000 pics. But, once they were all there magic happened. Every time I take a pic from my phone it uploads. When I take one from my 35mm (via ad onto computer), it uploads. But, that's not all. I got a new desktop and decided to see how it would do downloading to it. Awesome. All 105,000 pics downloaded. I am extremely impressed. I had tried another famous storage site, but it took too long and was expensive. Thank you Amazon. You are amazing.

3.0 out of 5 stars The web site needs an overhaul
Reviewed in the United States on September 27, 2022
Verified Purchase
Could be better. There are two places to choose Add photos on the same page. One takes you to the File Upload window the other does not not. After you've uploaded photos to an Album the page still shows Upload to the same folder..a bit misleading and confusing. Amazon makes a fortune, touts "included unlimited storage with Prime Membership" but they are unable to provide a tidy updated web site to Upload/View photos. An Amazon team member should open an account with Flickr to see how their User Interface works via the web (not an app).
Lastly, the Random order for the Screen Saver shows repeated images vs. newer images. A type of counter should be created to offer a more even distribution when in Random mode.

5.0 out of 5 stars Easy AND fun to use app
Reviewed in the United States on October 21, 2019

We take a lot of photos. Do we all ever get to see them? Not without effort until now. Just install amazon Photos on any device that stores your photos like phones, tablets and computers. Then install Amazon Photos on your Amazon Fire TV device and you can ask Alexa to display a slide show of your photos or browse through them. The best part is when you don't access your Fire TV device for your set time limit, it will begin displaying your latest photos on your TV screen. Really fun for the family to see all their photos without effort. A big plus is UNLIMITED free storage for your photo files. Try it and you'll see how easy and useful it is.

Prime Photos is great. Keeps a safe backup of all the photos on my phone and I can easily share with family just the photos I think they should see. No more handing over the phone to show a photo. I expect that Prime Photos does much more, it has an edit feature like a mini graphics program but I haven't tried it yet. You should try it, it's free and may save your photos when you loose your phone.

5.0 out of 5 stars Ottimo per Backup, ma anche per la consultazione...
Reviewed in Italy on December 9, 2019
Verified Purchase
Da quando mi son trovato costretto a rinunciare ad un archivio locale delle mie foto, a causa della massima capacità dell'hardisk del mio computer, ho pensato di sfruttare lo spazio illimitato offerto dall'abbonamento Prime per avere un backup ulteriore nel cloud (già uso icloud). Le funzionalità di Amazon Photos non sono molto distanti da ciò che offre l'app ufficiale di Apple, sia qui che là è possibile raggruppare le immagini in album, ci sono i raggruppamenti automatici per data, per località, per tipologia di immagini, e c'è il riconoscimento facciale. A differenza però dell'app di Apple, qui è possibile indicare i volti anche da app, mentre con Apple bisogna farlo per forza da computer.
Il servizio è molto comodo, veloce negli upload, e veloce nella consultazione delle immagini. Peccato che il servizio non consenta l'archiviazione dei video (solo 5, se non erro...) ma questi non mi interessano. Nell'eventualità interessasse, c'è un servizio a pagamento che permette di archiviare anche i video.

Sono soddisfatto!

Eigene Bilder auf Photos hochzuladen und Alben anzulegen funktioniert einfach mit wenigen Klicks. Ebenso einfach und zuverlässig kann man sie dann auf dem TV ansehen, wenn man z.B. den firestick von Amazon installiert hat. Auch auf dem Smartphone hat man die Bilder über Photos dabei.
Die Website von Photos auf der Website von Amazon wieder zu finden könnte verbessert werden. Wenn man sich die Adresse nicht gemerkt hat, kann die Suche mühsam werden.
