So, you want to backup your Samsung photos and files to the cloud so that they're safe in case something happens to your phone. Well, I've got some good news for you. You can do just that with Samsung Cloud.

First, let's take a look at how to access the Gallery app on your Samsung phone. Once you open the Gallery app, you'll see all of your photos and videos organized into albums. If you want to backup certain files, you might need to use a computer instead of your phone.

There are a few ways to do this. You can go to samsung.com/cloud and sign in with your Samsung Account. From there, you can upload files from your computer or use the Samsung Cloud website to manage your cloud storage. This is also where you can view all of your synced photos and videos across multiple devices.

Now, let's talk about Samsung Cloud Drive. This is essentially a file or folder that stores anything you put into it will be stored on your Samsung Account so that you can easily go and download those files without compressing or adjusting the files at all.

For example, if I want to create a new folder in Samsung Cloud Drive, I can just select menu -> create folder and name it whatever I like. Then, if I want to add a file to this folder, I can just copy it into there.

Another option is that you could use the My Files app on your device which is basically Samsung's take on the Android File Manager. If you go into the My Files application, then down here, you will see different cloud accounts so right here I have Samsung Cloud Drive. It shows that I've used 8.7GB of my 15GB storage available.

So, when I open that up again, I'll see a folder called download and backup. And if I open this folder, I can see some files I had synced, even though I hadn't opened Samsung Cloud Drive on here before yet.

If you want to create another folder, you can do that as well. For example, let's just say I want to add a video clip, and hold down select menu -> move or copy, actually maybe I want to copy it because I want to keep it there so I'm going to select copy Samsung Cloud Drive -> YouTube.

Now, the file will be saved onto my cloud account, and I can access it from here on my tablet or even on the web. You might also like this feature of being able to specify which files you want to backup, because maybe there are certain files that you always want to have with you, no matter what.

You could simply add those files right into Samsung Cloud Drive when you sign in and then all of your information will be right here in the Cloud Drive account. You might also want to check the trash if there's anything that you definitely want to make sure is removed from the cloud so that's just a little handy tip on how to use Samsung Cloud Drive.

Now, let's take a look at how to access those files on your Galaxy Tab s3 device. When I open my files application and go into Samsung Cloud Drive, it will show me all of the same files, including the new folder I created earlier.

I can select a file and it will open up to play that file, without having to upload it to YouTube or anything. So, there you have it - Samsung Cloud is a great way to keep your photos and files safe, no matter what happens to your device.
