What is cloud storage and how does it work?

Cloud storage is just a computer somewhere else that holds your files. You upload photos, documents, or videos to it from your phone or computer, and you can get them back from any device with an internet connection. It's like renting a locker at a storage facility, except the company takes care of all the hard stuff for you.

Cloud storage is a service where a company keeps your files on their powerful computers (called servers) instead of only on your device. You get access to those files from anywhere you have internet. The company handles all the security, backups, and maintenance. You just upload a file once and it's instantly available on your phone, tablet, and computer.
