Yes, pCloud turns 12. The past year has felt like a rocket ride around our sun. It’s been fast and exhilarating. We went places, we were busy building things (still in the making but good things take time), and generally we kept your data safe while having a good time doing it.
Supercharging Your Cloud Experience
On the product front, our team has been busy supercharging your pCloud. Even the smallest tweaks were a little nudge toward making pCloud feel less like work and more like magic you barely notice. Now, let’s take you behind the scenes to highlight how we’ve worked tirelessly to improve your experience.
Mobile Apps That Do More (Android & iOS)
On Android, staying organized is now effortless. An auto-upload folder structure keeps your photos and files neatly sorted, while fresh new icons make navigation feel crisp and clear. We’ve raised the bar on security too: passcode lock and biometric unlock keep snoopers at bay. The crypto scan suggestions add a subtle layer of guidance for managing files like a pro. HLS streaming makes media playback smoother, while drag-and-drop boosts productivity.
Meanwhile, over on iOS, we went big with a completely rebuilt audio player. Think adjustable playback speeds, sleep timer, podcast mode, AirPlay integration, easy track skipping, custom playlists, and even Bluetooth headphone controls. It’s not just an upgrade. It’s the soundtrack to your life, refined.
Automatic Upload also got a brain transplant. You can now choose to upload only while charging, exclude specific albums, pause or resume at will. Moreover, the app can neatly file everything by year and month. We’ve made storage management friendlier with new subscription options, smoother payments, and smarter space-freeing tools.
A Sleeker, Smarter Web Experience
We’ve given my.pCloud a serious glow-up. It’s not just a new coat of paint. It’s a full-on redesign. The new interface is modern and so intuitive you’ll wonder how you ever put up with the old one. Managing your files now feels like flow. Sharing links? That’s been reimagined too with more preview options.
Photos got their moment too. Finally, you can view and manage your media in a dedicated section. Just hit Photos on the left menu and quickly dive into a sea of memories. Thanks to the timeline order, finding that one perfect sunset selfie is easier than ever.
Under the hood, we’ve turbocharged performance across the board. Pages snap into place, actions respond instantly, and everything just moves the way it should.
Oh—and mobile? Revamped. Now, while you’re on the train or in line for coffee, the mobile web version keeps up effortlessly.
Lightning-Fast pCloud Drive (Mac, Windows, Linux)
Over the last year, on our pCloud Drive platforms we tackled speed and usability head-on.
On Windows, we’ve gone for a fresh new look. The app has been redesigned from the ground up to feel cleaner, sharper, and more intuitive. Under the hood, a brand-new WolfSSL implementation powers performance boosts you’ll notice right away.
On macOS, quick access is now just a click away as the Dock icon and Applications button open straight into the pCloud Drive interface. Updates are easier to catch thanks to About-tab notifications, and setup is smoother with a scannable installation-guide QR code built right into the installer. We also streamlined navigation by moving the About tab into Settings, polished Notification and System preferences, and—just like on Windows—upgraded to WolfSSL for faster, safer performance.
On Linux, it’s all about stability and what’s coming next. A new WolfSSL core drives efficiency. The redesigned Settings screen and improved update functionality keep your current app rock-solid. And here’s the big one: a completely new Linux application is on the horizon.
Around the World
In April 2025 we exhibited at Japan IT Week in Tokyo. It was our first time on that stage. And in case you don’t know, Japan IT Week is massive. The spring 2025 expo drew thousands of tech professionals and exhibitors. While in the country of the rising sun, we also doubled down on education. The day after the show, we threw a pCloud Academy meet up in Tokyo. It was full of tips, trivia, and a quiz where one lucky attendee snagged a free 500GB plan.
Looking to the Next Orbit
So, another lap around our sun brings us to today. We are grateful, a little awe-struck, and already brimming with ideas for pCloud’s year 13. We updated, iterated, and yes, even partied. We’ll save the big stats for now, but know that our orbit is ever-expanding.
We step into the next round with the same Swiss precision and friendly tenacity that got us here. The cloud market is booming and AI is humming. Meanwhile, our servers are standing by, ready to secure, sync, and share whatever comes next.
Cheers to you, our incredible users, for making this wild ride possible. We may be celebrating, but the gift for you is here.
We’ve got plenty of space (in the cloud) for your data and even bigger plans on the horizon.
