Samsung to Transition from Microsoft OneDrive to Samsung Cloud for Gallery App Backup

Recent reports confirm Samsung’s planned shift from Microsoft OneDrive to Samsung Cloud as the primary cloud backup solution within its Gallery application. Initial indications of this transition emerged last month, although the specific implementation timeline remained undisclosed. Information obtained from a user on the platform X (formerly Twitter) now clarifies the planned rollout.

According to a screenshot of the Samsung Gallery app within a One UI 8.5 build, the integration of Samsung Cloud as the default backup service is scheduled to commence on April 11, 2026. This marks the discontinuation of OneDrive’s role in this capacity.

Samsung Cloud, mirroring services such as Google Drive, offers users up to 15GB of complimentary storage per Samsung account. This storage capacity facilitates synchronization of various data types, including Memo, S Note, Samsung Notes, Scrapbook content, photos, and videos.

Furthermore, Samsung Cloud provides backup and restoration capabilities for voice recordings, music files, and documents. It should be noted that Samsung offers unlimited storage for core native applications like Contacts and Calendar.
