Features & Capabilities

Livedrive is a leading online backup and cloud storage service. It lets you access documents, music, videos, and photos stored on your Windows PC or Mac from anywhere. The desktop software automatically backs up important files to your online account, and the Chrome extension keeps everything synced for quick, secure access on the go.

With Livedrive Mobile for iOS, you can automatically back up photos and videos, view photos in full-screen slideshow mode, view and edit documents anywhere, stream music and video, and share files with friends and family. Note that a Livedrive account is required, and mobile uploads and sharing require a Briefcase or Pro Suite plan.

User Reviews

User reviews for Livedrive on iOS are mixed. Many praise fast desktop backups and a visually appealing new UI, and some find the iPad video streaming useful. However, a larger share report critical reliability issues: the app crashes or freezes frequently, users cannot open or access their files, and navigation and features are frustrating or missing. Some note updates removed useful UI elements and that bug fixes and updates are sparse. Overall, the app shows promise in speed and media streaming, but stability, file-access reliability, and ongoing support need significant improvement.
Pros
  • Fast backup/upload speeds (desktop app; initial backups quick).
  • Visually appealing new app UI.
  • iPad app streams video well (good media playback).
Cons
  • Frequent crashes and instability; app often freezes.
  • Inability to open or access files; errors like 'folder is empty' or 'connection to Livedrive failed.'
  • Terrible or confusing UI with missing features; navigation and essential functionality lacking.
  • Poor/update cadence; bugs persist and updates are infrequent.

I foolishly signed up on some 5-year deal, paid $447 five years ago. I didn't use the service, and never heard from livedrive again. But I did hear from my credit card, because another $447 charge popped up out of the blue. No warning, no nothing.i tried to cancel the account but was "told" that the payment for the next 5 years would not be refunded. I launched a dispute with the credit card company, but was unsuccessful. Livedrive told the credit card company that it was my responsibility to understand the terms of the trial period. Trial period?? That was finished five years ago. I'm not even sure if my account cancellation was successful, but I sure will find out before the next time they come to rob me of $447. Beware this company.

Big fan on the briefcase. At one point several months ago; documents edited on a PC stopped opening on my phone. Talked to LD. They can reproduce it but fidnt fix it Not having access to important information is bad for my paycheck!! I made a briefcase folder inmy DropBox And mapped L drive to it and moved the contents over. All good now.
