9/10 people I saw in the store when I worked retail repairing phones never setup any sort of backup for their photos. Never plugged it into their computer never setup Google Photos or iCloud photo backup, nothing.

99% of those phones with issues were out of storage space because the phone was filled with pictures that existed nowhere else.
