Cloud storage

[englishmale]

I was wondering if you have any plans to incorporate access to online storage such as Google drive etc, I feel this would be something a lot of people would want, especially for smaller ROMs. It would allow us to access our game collection across various devices without having to load the same games on every device. You could also incorporate your own cloud storage, I'm sure people would be willing to pay a monthly subscription to access it.

Hi there,

Thanks for the great suggestion here. At the moment, this isn’t currently possible within LaunchBox Android. While the app does support NAS setups, there’s no support yet for consumer cloud storage providers such as Google Drive or similar services.

That said, we really like the idea, especially for Android where storage space is often much more limited and users may be moving between multiple handhelds, tablets, or phones. Being able to maintain a single centralized ROM library in the cloud rather than duplicating games across every device would definitely be a nice quality of life improvement.

We’ve gone ahead and created a formal feature request for this so it can be tracked properly internally.
