Safety starts with understanding how developers collect and share your data. Data privacy and security practices may vary based on your use, region, and age. The developer provided this information and may update it over time.
Unusable Since Last Update. After the last update, the app has been unusable. There have issues with uploads, syncing, and an error message constantly pops up. Most importantly, I now cannot access files in my vault as the app says it's either been removed or I do have permission. Even there is no issue accessing it on PC. Frankly unsettling that OneDrive might delete my most important files without my knowledge or permission.

It's doesn't sync or backup properly at all. I don't like the fact that whatever you've uploaded appears to be there but physically isn't there at all. It just deletes most all of it into the recycle bin which you used to be able to restore it. Now, it just completely disappears, no restoring whatsoever. Instead of adding more features, will you please fix the ones that aren't working first. Considering, we are paying a monthly subscription for it. Thank you!

Microsoft, your OneDrive app really SUCKS. I've been your subscriber for Microsoft 365 (residential) for so many years, and the app half the time is either loading, lagging and not reflecting the latest attempts to upload or revise files. It is unfortunate that you're the dominant player w integrated office suite (Dropbox cloud including its app is more stable). The day that your dominance wanes, I'll be the first one to kick your subscription out. Don't be so complacent.

What’s new
You can now display your media files on a Chromecast receiver or TV from a compatible device. Look for a Cast icon showing in the top toolbar. We hope you enjoy this top-requested feature!
