- `Your Did`: This is your decentralized ID based on your password
- `Your Content Root CID` (This is hidden by default): This value is needed in order to retrieve your data on another account. We are working to enhance the protocol side to make this value retrievable but right now if you lose it there is no retrieval method. This value changes after each upload (Private)
- `Your Private Key` (This is hidden by default): This value is needed in order to retrieve your data on another account. There is no need to save this as this is automatically being created from the DID (Private)
- `Fula Account`: This is the Fula account that the tokens/payments for backing up your data will be deducted from. For testnet initially there is no charge but also no guarantee for hte data you upload (Not private)
- `Your PeerID`: This is the peer id that the application uses to connect to other nodes (Not private)

## Future Plans

1- Completing the browser based application
2- Sharing with others. You can easily share the uploaded files with others in or outside of Fula network and set expiry date, give write permission, and anything oyu do on the cloud. This feature already exists in the protocol and we just need to implement the required interfaces for it
3- Integration with AI. We are working on integrating the application with on-device face-detection algorithms
4- Easy import from Google/Apple Photos. We implement a feature to easily migrate your files over from other applications.
