Back up drone, iPhone, and action-camera media so you can clear space with confidence.

Camera Backup helps you store media from drones, iPhones, and action cameras safely in Google Photos - then clear space on your devices and camera cards without guessing what is already backed up. Shared files are temporarily staged on your iPhone for background transfer and automatically cleaned up once verified.

Inside the app

Share in. Verify. Clear space when ready.

Camera Backup empty transfer queue ready to receive shared media — **Capture** Share originals from drones, iPhone, or action cameras into the queue.

Camera Backup transfer log showing verified completed backups — **Verify** Know what is safely in Google Photos before you free device or card space.

Safety model

Back up first. Free space when you are ready.

No silent deletes

Source media is never deleted or mutated automatically. You decide when to clear space after a backup is verified.

Automatic staging cleanup

Shared files are staged locally so background uploads can finish, then deleted automatically once verified or cancelled.

Token hygiene

OAuth tokens and resumable-session URIs stay redacted from logs.

Coming soon to iOS.
