Wish this was still supported

Best way to share photos - download and send a link. Too bad you’re not supporting this anymore. No other program does this. Was super easy and convenient.

Disappointing to see this going away

This is the problem with software / web interface tied hardware. As of today yea I was able to enable my local access but again another product that is having support dropped. Disappointing

Sad to see it will no longer be supported

Very disappointed that the unit will no longer be supported. I replied on using it from anywhere in the world. It really helped Me to offload my photos keeping my phone ready to take more and still access my full library.

Please reconsider!!! Or at least let it still function without any further development for those who used it. 😀

Works great but need minor tweak.

Had the ibi for 3 years now and it runs great. Updates are good but noticed once I upgraded from my iPhone Xs to 14 pro then 15 pro the top two corners of the iPhone with functions, do not work well. Maybe the press function area was coded too small for my fingers? My fingers are average size male. But no matter if it’s hamburger menu, X icon, or whatever function they put it only works 20% of the time. Had to press multiple times to finally hit the small invisible target area to work. Most of the time I’m just closing the app and open it up and start all over again.

All other features they have works well and runs great!

Ibi

It was a product that I really liked ! It was nice to put your photos on and then watch them on your tv, have bad eyesight , but since they deleted that option it is almost worthless to me !!

iPhone 14

Does Not work if you have a new iPhone 14. Needs a software fix ASAP

Keeps getting better

I purchased ibi 2 (or more) years ago and I found it useless and just shoved it aside ashamed that I wasted my hard earned money.
Recently, I had to buy a new iPhone and eventually my iPhone discovered the ibi and new versions of its software. I am now exploring features when I get a chance.

Can’t Login

Stupid update just ruined my day! It ask me to login in - search for my device - found it! Saying it’s already connected that I need too ask owner to invite! I’m the frekem owner. Now I can’t login…. Same repeat over & over no other. Options. ANGRY need important pic in there before my vacation

Very bad: TV apps support going away

I bought this device only because we could view the pics and videos on big TV. Starting 2022, all TV apps support is being withdrawn, meaning this device is just another crap backup drive. That is the reason San disk dropped the prices.

Not trustworthy

I purchased an ibi and enjoyed it up to a point. Love that my mom could use my ibi device. Love that my photos could be backed up automatically. Love that the connection between my iPhone and ibi will switch to local when I’m on the same network. Love that the ibi will try to search for dogs or people for me (even if it shows goats as dogs haha). The one thing I do not love which has turned me away from my ibi is it’s lack of support for all live pictures. I can view vertical Live Photo’s well. Horizontal Live Photo’s do not save as Live Photo’s. They save on the ibi device as still photos. This is frustrating to me. I want to be able to trust my ibi to store all my photos, but I can’t if it’s not going to save my horizontal Live Photo’s. I talked with a representative and he stated,

“ I would like to inform you that if any Live Photos are taken horizontally will not back up as Live Photos.“

Really good product except for Live Photo support. The representative did not show any initiative towards fixing this issue.

May work well for Android.
