1) what you said - SD card to USB reader
2) With Capsule desktop app, you can import from anywhere, so if your computer has a SD card reader, you can just import the files from SD card directly into Capsule @Jack. We'll look at USB C when there is more market adoption, unfortunately because we don't have the Apple's brand cred + their billions in the bank, we can only design for what most people want. Good comment though. Will look at that in the future! regards

We've looked at RAW support before. And exactly as @Lee said, the amount of brands, and prioritary formats esp for Canon and Nikon makes it an extremely difficult engineering task. Our plan in the long run is likely to move toward supporting it, but given the size of the current team we had to pick our battles. In short, hopefully we will support RAW, but I can't provide a concrete timeframe. Hi @Martin:
Your photos will be safe on the hard drive if the Capsule fails - I don't know about exploding ;). Totally get what you mean about redundancy. For RAID support, we'll need to enhance the hardware. It's on our roadmap. @Won Chak Leung:
We could consider allowing users to change the date. Yes, user tagging will be supported out of the box. So you could tag / group photos however you want. We hoped that the auto tagging & smarts will take care of 90% of use cases, user tagging can do the other 10% that require more human context @Ravipart:
1. All devices will share the same pool of photos. Access, delete (we archive for 12 months, then permanently delete), and sharing is for the same pool of photos 2. I personally would like to ship before May 2018, it's not a guarantee, but based on current scope of work that we can anticipate (and things may pop up that we can't). Now, I'm not a lawyer nor can I play one on the internet :p But given our backers made the purchase now, when the GST regulations haven't been finalised, it would be unfair for the government to charge it during delivery. This issue isn't isolated to us, but all Kickstarter / Indiegogo projects that deliver after Jul 2018. 3. No upper limit on HDD size. Capsule currently works with all HDD size and formats you can throw at it (except for bootable drives - which I reckon we can solve, just haven't had enough customer demand for it) @Jennifer:
Ok, yours is the exact use case we target - I'm actually in the same boat, with photos across hard drives, computer, mobile, Social. With you computer photos, just drag it into the Capsule Desktop App, it'll backup via WiFi, and will work in the background to eventually finish. The reason you want to do that is once your photos & videos are on Capsule, the Smarts kick in, and you'll discover memories you haven't seen in a while, all from within the Capsule App :D With the phone, just install our app, and it'll backup photos & videos in the background. One of our Beta users has 15,000 photos (incl iCloud), and that was done in 3 nights when she left the phone on charging and Capsule running in the foreground. From then on, any new photos you take should backup instantly and automatically. Lastly:
Thank you for backing & believing in us. Please tell your friends about us so we could make Capsule a reality! warm regards

I mean each device got their own profile and, all content will be stored in the same data pool that every device can access, delete or share? 2. Most of KS project it seems to be delay in delivery (based on my experiences), if the capsule is shipped directly from overseas after 1st July 2018, how GST works? 3. How big of external HDD the capsule can take? like up to 5 TB. 4. +1 adding SD card slot Cheers
I like the way that Capsule can help me to organise the photos automatically, but it would be nice that I can have another option that I can organise photos myself, like, organising the order, tagging the addresses and people, like the way I can do on Facebook.
Btw, HDMI can be considered so that we can stream the photos on TV
Is it possible the connect my devices to more than one Capsule to create kind of redundancy? You know... in case the first Capsule explodes or something :-)
Also @Martin for precaution, we don't auto delete (it's not hard to do, but seems TOO magical :p). But we will offer the option to Free up space on your phone as a feature by detecting what photos has been backed up to Capsule :D
The key design decision though was everyone seem to have hard drive lying around. It's a lot easier just to plug them in and have photos & vids made avail on Capsule apps immediately instead of waiting to transfer to internal drive. But stay tuned, we're always keen to push the envelope, so keep your eyes peeled, we may surprise you yet ;) @Martin @Ralph. I'll DM you guys individually. Re how we store photos on videos on hard disk. We encrypt everything in transmission (when you stream them to your phone), but not on storage. A deliberate design decision to NOT have consumers beholden to us if our product fails. You can take the hard drive used with Capsule and plug it into anywhere and your photos & videos are under the "Capsule" folder!
it destroys the timeless design if I have to put external SSDs next to it.
I was just going to ask the same question Paola already asked. I want to pledge for one metal (done!) and one non-metal Capsule. How can I do that? Kickstarter will only change my pledge if I try.
Also - will you offer combined shipping?
Best regards and best of luck with the campaign, Ralph
just a short question. Will it be possible to automatically delete photos from mobile devices or computers as soon as it has been synced to the Capsule?
Is it possible to make more than 1 pledge? I would love to make an additional 2 pledges to use as gifts for family members.
Thanks,
Paola
Just backed this up, but i was wondering how you are different from
