A NOTE ABOUT VIDEOS ON SMARTPHONES
Many of your Videos and Photos are not actually stored on your device. They are rather on the cloud and the images you are seeing are a preview. If you upload your files directly through our server from your mobile device it will actually download the files from the cloud before uploading them. This can significantly increase the time it takes to share your files. For this reason we encourage you to share a link with us or upload in the evening when you are not using your phone for other applications.
