Be prepared for a long wait for first download of photos.
You Ned to be aware the first time you use it it will take a long time to download all your photos unless you only have a few. However it is easy to use both downloading and accessing afterwards.

Not as described
After lengthy research, I decided this stick was the one for me and I bought this size for my ipad, phone and laptop. I made sure to buy the Universal version and it came shortly before the birth of my grandchild - the reason I knew i would be swimming in photos!Laptop - tick, Ipad - tick, then onto the phone to sort 7,000 photos - only to fond it wasn't going to acknowledge my phone for love nor money - but it did keep telling me I needed to get a Universal stick??Having emailed the company and received no reply, I decided the only way to feel better was to leave negative feedback in the hopes that it would save someone some money further down the line, by not buying this product.

Backed up all photos with no problems at all
This item backed up all the pictures + videos from my PC & Android phone so easily.All I had to do was plug the stick into the usb socket on my computer, follow simple instructions and the backup just started. It took quite a while but I now have a copy on the photo backup stickI then connected my phone to the PC and again I followed the instructions and the backup stick copied all the photos & videos from my phone.I recommend this product.

Product doesn't work at all
Bought the bigger drive version of this which broke quickly returned it for a refund and thought id try this USB stick version. This also doesn't work. It takes ages to backup and consistently crashed and you have to start all over again. Never got further than 25% of my pics to back up before it crashed. Then if you start again it downloads a second full copy of pics again which means storage gets used up. If you de duplicate pics it deletes the pictures already downloaded ie you wipe the stick and start again. Tried this multiple times over a week. Same issues on phone or laptop Complete waste of time

Doesn't do what it says it will do
This does NOT allow you to plug your phone into it and 'find' all the photos on your phone and save them on this stick. The only way you can get photos on to this stick is to copy them first on to your PC and then move them over to the drive. You can do that with any USB stick (that cost a lot less) so why I paid around £60 for this I have no idea. Oh I know, it was because I believed the claims that the supplier made. I'll know better next time.

Easy to use
This little stick is very easy to use and has good capacity. It comes with a couple of adapters so it can be plugged straight into many devices, or used as a normal usb.

Very very slow!!!!!!!!!!
Painfuly slow ,first time and also when you back up new photos it starts at the beginning and re backs up the ones it has already done. would not advise anyone to buy it!

Not straightforward
This piece of tech does store all photographs and allows a modicum of organisation. However, it didn't upload immediately, I had to search for the program that started the software and once the photos are uploaded organising them seems impossible. It did remove duplicates very efficiently.
