Yandex Disk restores automatic photo and video uploads
The automatic upload of photos and videos has resumed in the Yandex Disk mobile app. This is one of the final stages in restoring the service following damage to the company's infrastructure.
Users can once again automatically save photos and videos from their smartphones to the cloud. The settings allow choosing between uploading via mobile internet or Wi-Fi. For subscribers of Yandex 360 plans with unlimited automatic uploads, such files do not occupy the main Disk storage space.
Additionally, the service team has restored video streaming: videos can now be watched directly in the app without downloading them in full beforehand.
However, the restoration is not yet complete. Some documents, photos, and other files may remain inaccessible for viewing or downloading. Yandex warns users about the dangers of third-party instructions and programs that offer to restore access to data.
On November 10, the company announced that engineers had managed to restore access to more than 97% of Yandex Cloud customer data. Another 2.8% of the information could not be recovered due to critical damage to equipment and the absence of backup copies from clients.
