How to add a cloud

Piktures can open the photos stored on a cloud, on a network drive, or on a WebDAV server.

Add an access

1. Open the Storage tab and scroll down to ADD A NEW ACCESS.
2. Tap the service: Microsoft OneDrive, Google Drive, Dropbox, Network drive, Koofr, Yandex Disk, Nextcloud, or Webdav.
3. Read the screen that opens, and tap its button, such as GO TO DROPBOX or GET STARTED.
4. Sign in. OneDrive, Google Drive, and Dropbox open their own sign-in. The other services ask for your login details.

The new access appears in the Storage tab, under CLOUD, or under HOME for a network drive. Tap it to see its albums. The first time, Piktures reads the whole folder structure, which can take a while. The next times are faster.

Free and paid

Your first access is free, whatever the service, a network drive included. A second access needs Premium or Prime: Piktures then opens the Upgrade screen.

Remove an access

• Long-press its tile in the Storage tab, then tap Remove connection.
• Or tap its tile, then ⋮ at the top of the Albums tab, then Remove connection.

The access is removed right away, without asking for confirmation.
