FileKeepBox vs iCloud: price, privacy & iPhone backup

Your cloud. Your rules. Here is an honest comparison — including where iCloud wins — so you can pick the storage that fits you.

FileKeepBox fills the gaps iCloud skips: 100 GB, 500 GB and 1 TB at prices iCloud doesn't offer. If you need 2 TB, iCloud is the cheaper pick at $9.99/month.

iPhone backup

Both back up your iPhone photos and videos. iCloud is built into iOS and backs up automatically in the background. FileKeepBox backs up in one tap from the web — free to start, no app install needed — and works on any device, not just Apple. If you want a second, independent copy of your photos outside Apple's system, FileKeepBox is a natural backup for your backup.

Privacy: the real difference

iCloud encrypts your data and Apple states it doesn't sell your information. But Apple is a giant platform company whose business touches advertising and services. FileKeepBox makes a plain promise in its Privacy Policy: we never look at your files, never train AI on them, no ads, never sell your data. Your files are yours — your cloud, your rules. FileKeepBox also offers a Private Vault: a folder encrypted on your own device before upload, so even FileKeepBox can't read it.

Where iCloud wins

Honestly: iCloud wins on deep Apple integration — automatic device backup, shared albums, and syncing across iPhone, iPad and Mac with zero setup. If you live entirely inside Apple and want everything automatic, iCloud is hard to beat. FileKeepBox wins on price for 100 GB–1 TB, on privacy, and on working the same everywhere.

Extras only FileKeepBox has

Invite a friend and you both get 5 GB (up to 50 GB). Share storage with your family (up to 5 people in one pool). A backup-health page that verifies every file and emails you a monthly report. In-browser video playback and ZIP preview on share links.
