Hey, i’m working on a podcast’s app, that contained also a700+ lectures, i want to know which drive will be the best for me, because i saw that with google drive i had some problem like the fact that iphone can’t run the audio links from google, but from cloundinary it works, so i guess there is few more things that i don’t know yet that can be really critical for me in the future. my database is already stored in google drive and i need to find new one cuz the iphone’s bug, so before i’m starting to transfer all my linksto a new one, i need to know which drive is the best for me? a one that works fast with glide, (cloundinary works faster then google drive - with audio files) that you can recommend? ---

The best one is Glide’s storage, you should be able to store your audio files there and run them without any problems. Or, as you said, next option is Cloudinary. I have seen many reports about files being stored on Drive (both images and audios) not being able to play, so that’s not an option that we recommend. ---

The glide storage it’s only 10gb so i think that cloudinary it’s my only option… ---

The storage limits are not enforced on Pro Plans - how much storage do you expect to use? ---

Then you might want to speak with @Ian or someone from Glide to know how they work with apps that have more than 10GB in storage. ---

So your data can’t work with the free level of Cloudinary? It’s one of the best free tiers out there but yeah it gets expensive when you need more. ---
