Still using Samsung Cloud? You need to move files NOW

Samsung Cloud features will be completely terminated on June 30.

What you need to know

Samsung is about to pull the plug on its cloud storage service for Galaxy owners.
If you are a Samsung Cloud user, you should soon start migrating your data to Microsoft OneDrive.
Samsung will begin deleting all files from its cloud service starting July 1.

Samsung announced last year that it would wind down its Samsung Cloud service in 2021 in favor of Microsoft's OneDrive, which is one of the best cloud storage services around. As spotted by our colleagues at TechRadar, a notice on the Samsung website makes it clear that Samsung Cloud will soon stop supporting Gallery Sync, Samsung Cloud Drive, and Premium Storage. It also warns that users may lose their data in case they do not take urgent action.

Since Samsung Cloud is being shut down, the Gallery and Drive sync features for My Files on Samsung's best Android phones and tablets will now be supported by Microsoft OneDrive instead. If you are in Group 1, you will be able to migrate all your files from Samsung Cloud to Microsoft OneDrive until March 31. Users in Group 2 markets, however, will have until May 31 to start moving their data.

In the second stage of the Samsung Cloud shutdown, which will begin on June 30, users will be allowed to download all their data from the cloud to their Galaxy device or PC. After the second stage, Samsung will begin deleting files that aren't migrated from the Samsung Cloud. If you have a Premium Storage subscription plan, it will be automatically canceled from Stage 1.

In order to migrate your files to OneDrive, you'll have to open the Samsung Cloud app on your Galaxy Device and head over to :More > Settings > Link with OneDrive. You can also start the integration from the My Files or Gallery apps by making your way to :More > Settings > Switch to OneDrive. While Microsoft offers only 5GB of cloud storage to free users, Samsung Cloud users will be provided 15GB of free storage for the first year.

The hidden cost of food delivery

Noah Lichtenstein Contributor Share on Twitter Noah Lichtenstein is the founder and managing partner of Crossover , a diversified private technology fund backed by institutional investors, technology execs and professional athletes and entertainers. More posts by this contributor What Studying Students Teaches Us About Great Apps I’ll admit it: When it comes to food, I’m lazy. There are dozens of great dining options within a few blocks of my home, yet I still end up ordering food through delivery apps four or five times per week. With the growing coronavirus pandemic closing restaurants and consumers self-isolating, it is likely we will see a spike in food delivery much like the 20% jump China reported during the peak of its crisis. With the food delivery sector rocketing toward a projected $365 billion by the end of the decade, I’m clearly not the only one turning to delivery apps even before the pandemic hit. Thanks to technology (and VC funding) we can get a ri

Slack’s new integration deal with AWS could also be about tweaking Microsoft

Slack and Amazon announced a big integration late yesterday afternoon. As part of the deal, Slack will use Amazon Chime for its call feature, while reiterating its commitment to use AWS as its preferred cloud provider to run its infrastructure. At the same time, AWS has agreed to use Slack for internal communications. Make no mistake, this is a big deal as the SaaS communications tool increases its ties with AWS, but this agreement could also be about slighting Microsoft and its rival Teams product by making a deal with a cloud rival. In the past Slack CEO Stewart Butterfield has had choice words for Microsoft saying the Redmond technology giant sees his company as an “existential threat.” Whether that’s true or not — Teams is but one piece of a huge technology company — it’s impossible not to look at the deal in this context. Aligning more deeply with AWS sends a message to Microsoft, whose Azure infrastructure services compete with AWS. Butterfield didn’t say that of course
