Digi Storage Web Interface

Getting started

The Digi Storage web interface is the first point of access to your cloud storage account. From here you can download your Digi Storage PC apps (Windows, Linux, Mac OS/X) and the Digi Storage mobile apps (Android, iOS). Also from here you can change your personal details (password, notifications, profile picture, etc.).

The first connection to the Digi Storage web interface :

  • First create your Digi Storage account using our self-service portal from where you can manage all your Digi Services. For Romania you can acess https://digi.ro and login to your Digi account . For other countries this URL will be different. Then go to the "Services" section and create your storage account.

  • After creating the account, you will receive an activation email with your credentials. Click on the link from this e-mail to activate your account.

  • Access the Digi Storage URL https://digi.storage and login to your account.

  

On the left side of the screen you can find the following sections:

  • "Digi Cloud" folder (or "DIGIStorage" folder) - is the root folder that contains all the files uploaded to the cloud from your PC and mobile devices

  • Shares made by other users with you

  • Mappings made from the PC client via the "Add Place" option (see "Desktop App" section). With this feature, local folders can be mapped from your PC to the cloud account without actually transferring any data to the cloud

  • your Dropbox account, if you've linked your Dropbox account to Digi Storage
