I keep seeing this message for months but I don't understand what it means. I've never backed up to the cloud. Does this mean they'll no longer be in my photo gallery??

@userSCQ7Xz6Us5 You may not have realized it but you must have Gallery configured to use Samsung Cloud as a backup. If you didn't you wouldn't see a notice of "7864 pictures and videos". You can check it easily enough by opening Gallery -> Settings and looking for the "Sync with..." setting.

I would back up anyway like on a pc it's better to be proactive than to be stuck wondering where your files went because you didn't heed a warning

Thank you for the responses. I've always backed up to Google Photos as well as another photo app, so is the Cloud backup necessary?
