iCloud does what you are looking for, seamless (most of the time) data sync between your devices only. Nothing is shared externally unless you specifically do it. It actually works really well despite what some people around here will claim.

Maybe I am missing something, but why don’t you just put all your pics, vids and docs on Google Drive? Wouldn’t that be your “Google Cloud”?

Don’t you put that evil on me! But seriously, if ICloud does do all that (i’m not too familiar with it) it wouldn’t necessarily be a bad thing to have something like that on Android too. Except for all the lawsuits

Sounds like you want iCloud.

i totally agree. imagine if Drive was really your Google Filesystem, so you could see your emails (and clicking them would launch GMail), your Picasa/Google+ pictures, your Google Music files, etc., etc. that would be amazing!

I’m almost starting to hate being tied to a “Social” profile. Especially tired of ones that REQUIRE you to share an actual name.

Yes, Auto-Sync would be huge… plus i’ve had android since the OG, so i’ve been storing pics on Picasa, Video on You Tube, Docs on Google Drive, etc… I find it pretty unorganized and annoying… i would just like a single “Google Cloud” to take care of all of this and have Auto-Sync… Plus apps that are compatible with all devices to download with user data onto new devices if one chooses. Seamless integration on all devices… With a single cloud server all of this would be possible.

Of course. That’s the Internet way. You can’t make money off of people letting them remain completely private!

6 different accounts? I’ve only ever used one. Are you asking for an auto-sync of Google Drive files or something?

You guys need an app that takes advantage of this.

Made by me, preferably.

I wish Google would concentrate more on a complete cloud service, rather than shoving this Google+ down my throat. I am not interested in sharing all of my information with 500 “friends”. if i was, i would use facebook. I don’t understand why they are forcing everyone to join this, when some of us are only interested in a complete cloud service to privately store docs, photos, videos, and everything else on your phone, tablet, and laptop without having to announce every step you make to the world. Just give me an Android/Google Cloud that lets me take my life with me everywhere i go seamlessly, without having to sign in and use 6 different accounts in order to accomplish that. – Rant Over.

This “upgraded experience ” wouldn’t include a free erosion of my privacy, would it?

So now we get even more requests to install a website’s app when we visit?
