## Review summary

Users praise ibi for easy setup, automatic photo backup, local network access, simple sharing via links, and viewing memories on a TV. However, recurring themes dominate the feedback: SanDisk/WD stopped supporting the product, leaving it effectively unusable for many; devices frequently appear offline or fail to connect across iOS/Android/PC; the app is unstable after updates, with login and password reset issues; compatibility problems with newer iPhones (size and UI) and removed features (TV apps, Live Photo backup) degrade usability. Overall, strong value when it worked, but persistent support and reliability issues deter future purchases.

### Pros

- Easy to set up and use.
- Automatic photo backup and safe storage.
- Local access on the same network with seamless switching.
- Easy sharing of photos via download links.
- TV viewing of photos.

### Cons

- Product is no longer supported / discontinued, making it effectively unusable for many users.
- Device frequently appears offline or cannot connect across iOS/Android/PC.
- App unstable after updates, with login and password reset issues.
- Compatibility issues with newer iPhone models and small UI elements (e.g., touch targets).
- Withdrawal/removal of features (TV apps, Live Photo backup) reducing overall usefulness.
