Back Up Your Photos with The PhotoStick Mobile

Once in our lives, we’ve all been a victim of the “Storage is full” warning that our smartphones flash whenever our gallery is full of precious photos and videos. We can’t blame you, because those photos captured important events of your life and backing them up can be a pain in the neck. Lucky for you, we live in an era where anything is possible, even backing up your photos and videos in an instant: say hello to The PhotoStick Mobile.

ThePhotoStick Mobile is the epitome of convenience and organization compressed into a small USB stick that fits in the palm of your hand. With this tool, you won’t have to plug in your phone to a laptop to backup your files. All your photos and videos from your travels, parties, and random moments will be backed up with just one click — no additional hardware required. It’s a good way to keep your photos and videos from physical damage.

PhotoStick Mobile USB flash drive

ThePhotoStick Mobile was even featured in MarketWatch, Chicago Business Journal, ADVFN, San Francisco Business Times, and Wall Street Select. It has been hailed as the best flash drive for iPhone and Android and we wanted to see how it truly fares.

Just to make it clear, this review is for the mobile version of ThePhotoStick. And you can easily combine both of them!

Storage Device and Digital Organizer in One

The PhotoStick Mobile is a small USB flash drive that backs up your photos and videos with just one click. Using the free PhotoStick App, simply plug it in your phone, click go, and give it a few minutes to do its magic. Apple users might be familiar with the hassle of finding the perfect iOS flash drive for iPhone and iPad. But ThePhotoStick Mobile is compatible with both iOS and Android so there’s no need to look for other alternatives anymore.

ThePhotoStick Mobile iOS flash drive

It functions as a small USB flash drive for iPhone and Android where you can easily store your photos. With ThePhotoStick Mobile, you won’t have to transfer files from your phone to a cloud backup or an external drive. And the best thing about it is that it’s not just a storage tool, but also a digital organizer. Gone are the days when you have to manually sort out your photos because it also automatically finds and removes duplicates.

Convenient and Easy to Access

Unlike cloud backup, ThePhotoStick Mobile doesn’t require any complicated software for it to work. It’s a ‘hit and go’ device — simply download the free app on App Store or Google Play and click the Backup Files button. You don’t have to create an account or manually select the files that you want to upload.

It also allows you to be more productive. Instead of waiting until your computer finishes backing up your files, all you have to do is plug in The Photo Stick Mobile in your phone, back up your files, and you’re done. No hassle, and no need to wait around for a couple of minutes.

Powerful Memory in a Small Stick

Did we mention that ThePhotoStick Mobile can safely store up to 60,000 photos and videos? You heard it right, this featherlight storage stick has a heavyweight memory capacity.  You don’t have to worry about that annoying “Storage full” warning, because this handy tool can save your photos and access them anytime.

We also love how it supports nearly all image formats, whether it’s in .jpg, .png, or .tif. It doesn’t matter if your photos and videos have been from several years ago since The PhotoStick Mobile is able to save and preview all formats.

ThePhotoStick Mobile USB flash drive

No internet required

Backing up your photos and videos doesn’t require an internet connection. The PhotoStick Mobile is simply an iOS flash USB drive for iPhones as well as Android phones and tablets. So forget about having to connect to a Wi-Fi first before you can back up. Just plug it and go.

Debunking ThePhotoStick Mobile Myths

So you’re still not convinced that you should ditch the clunky external drives and unsubscribe from your cloud backup account, no? Here are the answers to some of the most common objections and hopefully shed some light on your photo and video storage problems.

“I can just do the back up myself, so I don’t need it.”

Of course, you can, but it would take a lot more time by going through every single file and transferring them to a backup device. It can also become confusing and you could miss an important photo or video because of the massive amount of files that you have to sort through. You could even duplicate some files that would take up some much-needed space. And what if your computer crashes? You’d risk losing all of your progress and go back right where you started. It’s very counterproductive and time-consuming.

The essence of ThePhotoStick Mobile is to do the dirty work for you so you can save time. Here are the problems that you could encounter if you try to back up your files yourself:

  • If you do it yourself, you’ll have to go through every single file and uploading them to a backup device. This can lead to confusion and you could miss an important photo or video because of the massive amount of files that you have to sort.
  • You could accidentally duplicate files and take up some much-needed space.
  • Your computer might crash. You’d risk losing all of your progress and go back right where you started. It’s very counterproductive and time-consuming.

ThePhotoStick Mobile hits a flock of birds with just one stone. It’s an iOS flash drive for iPhone and Android, plus it’s compatible with PCs that run on Windows and Mac as well. But there’s no need to use plenty of devices to store your files, just a phone will do.

“It looks like an ordinary USB drive. What makes it so efficient?”

On the outside, ThePhotoStick Mobile looks like another USB OTG. But don’t judge it quickly because although it looks just like a plain flash drive, it’s actually powered by a sophisticated software inside. ThePhotoStick Mobile uses a software that allows you to quickly search, store, and organize all of your photos and videos. It doesn’t require you to do a system setup prior to uploading photos and videos. Because of its affordability and convenience, it’s considered the best flash drive for iPhone and Android.

“I can just use cloud backup so I won’t have to carry a physical device.”

True, but cloud backup will cost more. It’s not free if you want a large storage capacity, so you’ll have to pay a monthly or yearly fee. Additionally, you’ll need an internet connection whenever you want to back up your photos and videos.

Another disadvantage of cloud backup is the amount of effort needed when uploading files. If you’re transferring a huge volume of photos and videos, it could take up a lot of your time. You also have to manually select the files that you want to be uploaded.

With The PhotoStick Mobile, you only have to pay once for the device. It’s also hassle-free because you can back up your files in just one click and doesn’t require any logins.

“Is it expensive?”

For its convenient functionality, it’s worth spending money on. The lowest-priced PhotoStick Mobile with an 32GB capacity costs only $59 with our coupon on its regular price of 99$. Prices vary depending on the memory capacity and the quantity that you want. If you buy a 2-pack or a 3-pack, you’ll get to save more.
