    Just a warning: Be careful of the photo feature, if you have Google+ installed on your phone, by default it seems to assume you want the pictures online.

    I would have liked a tick box to activate that behaviour on my phone, rather than it including me, from the start.

    Just got a bit of a shock to see stuff that I had photographed, end up on my account. Nothing too gross, just a photo of a parcel I had sent, but still..

    I think you can disable that in the options of the app. Also, when it uploads it, it won't be shared with anyone so no-one can see it until you specifically share it out.

    Yeah as AlmightyCushion said, they upload to a private album and "They are visible only to you until you share them.".

    It might catch you out on data charges though if you don't have a decent data plan. To disable, in the app go to menu > Settings > Instant Upload (disable).

    Edit: you can set it to only do uploads when you're on wifi.

    foto joe, it got me yesterday, as my credit vanished late afternoon. Oh well. It is the sort of thing that only gets you once. Once you know..


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,689 ✭✭✭joeKel73


    Yeah it should be either disabled by default or ask when you first run the app.
