Modern times have led to the evolution of smartphones into nothing less than the most convenient media creation as well as consumption devices. The average user has more data to be stored than ever, hence, leading to more stress on convenience of storage — and what better way to aid that, than by cloud storage! Yes, cloud-storage, in a short span of time, has gained great prominence in all aspects of modern computing. And if you are still wondering about which apps you should get for that, look no further.. we are here with a round-up of the best  available options in the play store.
1) Google Drive
Any user aware of cloud services shall know that Google has been among the pioneers of the service itself with the Google Docs services. Well, its been sometime ever since this service has seen a transition to Google Drive which is more of an incorporation of all your media and documents into a single seamless application. Google Drive can not only be used for backing-up and accessing your files but also for editing your documents on the go with a simple interface which even has Google Cloud Print integrated into it. And with all the nooks and corners of the original Google Docs covered, this app comes highly recommended! Head-on over to download it from the Play Store.

Dropbox is among the most popular apps for cloud storage available on Android. Handle your documents, videos, pictures or whatever you like wherever you want– whether it be on your PC, your tablet, or your smartphone.

Wuala has a first hand encryption engine right in the app which effectively encrypts each and every upload before sending it over to the cloud-end. The security aspect of the device is so handled that even Wuala itself doesn’t really access your app lest it isn’t encrypted by the engine. The usual features for accessing, uploading and downloading your files on the cloud are present as well along with features for sharing and group-collaboration. The app is free to download.
8) Megacloud
If accessing and managing your files and documents with an added perk of an intelligently integrated sharing system is something which irks a hiccup or two for you, we suppose that you shall look no further than Megacloud. This app empowers you with pretty decent integration and sharing options for social networks along with decent back-up space too. With options like  creating direct links for your files and direct music streaming, the app has pretty-much everything that you can ask for. Go get it for free from the Play Store!
9) Cloud Print
Cloud Print is one app which you can consider as an obvious conclusion for all your cloud-storage needs. Working in tandem with Google Cloud Print service, the app efficiently does what it’s supposed to do — print documents from over the cloud with support for many common file formats like pdf,jpg,docx,xls,ppt,txt,xps, etc. Throw in a few more features  like mail, sms and webpage printing into the equation, and you have an app that has all bases covered when you have something to print. The app doesn’t cost a penny on the Play Store.
So that makes it to a total of 9 apps before we round-off our list! We have tried hard not to let-go of any prominent cloud service on the Play Store but its best to give them a shot and see which one suits you the best. Lets hope next time you are in for something which requires these, you’d be on cloud 9!
