What else does it do?
Organise your life: get all your content you keep on your smartphone, computer, tablet, USBs and hard drives and save it into BT Cloud for safe keeping. You can file everything into folders.
Share your content: share individual photos to entire albums and even the largest of files! Just send a private link so people can easily download what they need – they don’t even have to be a BT customer. You can even post things directly to Facebook and Twitter straight from your BT Cloud.
Get your files anywhere: you’ll never have to go without getting hold of your files again. Just log on to BT Cloud and see your photos, listen to your music, watch your videos and work on your documents when you need to.
Never waste time searching for your content: because everything is automatically backed up into BT Cloud, you will know that it’s all there together in one place.
If your PC crashes or you lose your phone: you don’t have to worry about losing your photos and documents too. With automatic backup, all of your files will be ready for you to download from BT Cloud onto your new device.
Work from the latest documents wherever you are: so no matter if you can’t get hold of your PC, you can use any other device to log onto BT Cloud and access that document you were working on. All the changes you make will be ready for you to access when you’re back on your PC!
Get your content even when you’re offline: so if you know you’re going to be out of Internet access and you’ll want to listen to your music or watch your videos, like when you’re travelling, you can do that by marking files “offline”.
We can be trusted: We will never use your personal content in marketing, profile your files to serve you targeted ads, or sell your data to any third parties. What you have in your BT Cloud is yours and yours alone. All your content is stored within the EU and protected by EU privacy laws.
