Part 01 · Overview
Welcome
What it is, who it suits, its grades and the ten things to know first
2.6
GPA, above 27 of the 45 other file storage and sync services we grade
TeraBox is a cloud storage service that gives new accounts 1,024 GB of free space. It backs up photos, videos and documents, syncs across devices and shares large files by link. The app also bundles AI features such as search, transcription, image and video generation and note-taking from saved files, with paid Premium tiers sold in the app.
To get you started, here are 9 things to know about TeraBox, taken from its own pages and our grades.

The report card
Best for free cloud storage on your phone
TeraBox gives 1,024 GB free with photo backup and link sharing. The vendor's own site showed no prices in text, the App Store lists Premium purchases from $2.99 to $4.99 without periods, and it isn't clear what Premium adds.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | C | The only price on record is App Store Premium from $2.99 to $4.99 with no billing period, so it can't be compared fairly. |
| Free plan and trial | A | 1,024 GB of free storage on sign-up, with backup, link sharing and sync across devices. |
| Features | C | Storage, backup, sharing and AI tools, but the listing doesn't say what Premium adds over free. |
| Ease of use | B | No store rating on record, but it is an app you install and start uploading with. |
| Platforms and integrations | C | Web and iPhone are listed, with other platforms not confirmed and no integrations. |
An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.
Who TeraBox is for
- Fits if you want a large free space for photos and videos
- Works for someone who only needs phone and web access
Who it is not for
- Skip it if you want a clear Premium price: the listing shows $2.99 to $4.99 with no periods
- Skip it if you want a desktop app, as other platforms weren't confirmed
- Watch out: the vendor's own site showed no prices in text
- Watch out: the listing doesn't say what Premium adds over the free plan
Good to know
Good for
- People who want a large free storage allowance for photos and video
- Sending large files by link without paying
- Users who want AI note-taking tied to their stored files
Worth knowing
- Premium prices come from the App Store listing, which shows ten purchases at $2.99 to $4.99 without periods.
- The vendor's own site did not show prices in text, so annual or web prices are not recorded.
- The App Store listing covers iPhone, iPad and Mac; other platform support was not confirmed.
- The listing does not state what Premium adds over the free plan.

Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
Keep it
To replace TeraBox you would be making files kept in step across devices without losing one. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
What you could not
- Files kept in step across devices without losing one.
- Storing and serving files for other people.
- Speech turned into text you can trust.
- A real app for iOS. Something home-made would be a web page.
- AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
What this rests on. TeraBox’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
