Almost one third of UK respondents felt this pressure and as a result often felt unable to enjoy being \u201cin the moment\u201d, with four in 10 respondents saying that if they don\u2019t flag a \u201ckeeper\u201d photo right away, it\u2019s \u201cbasically gone forever&#8221;&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>The research also found:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>&#8220;42% of UK respondents reported that they tend to be the designated photo-taker at family and friends gatherings.&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>&#8220;The most common reason for losing memories is accidentally deleting a photo or video. As well as being forced to delete photos\/videos due to running out of storage (46%), running out of space on phone\/camera during an important event (35%) and losing important photos\/videos by failing to save from a text or email (29%).&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>&#8220;76% of UK respondents admit to shouting or cursing upon realising they had misplaced a photo or video that was important to them.&#8221;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"151275 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/FINAL-_-GoPro-Moment-V2-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"328\" height=\"1024\" \/>\n<p>Rick Loughery, GoPro\u2019s Vice President of Global Marketing and Communications said: \u201cYou know a \u2018keeper\u2019 photo or memory when you see it, but the data clearly demonstrates that losing track of that perfect shot is all too easy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The research marks the launch of GoPro\u2019s new app, GoPro Quik, which aims to make it quick and easy for users to get the most out of their favourite photos and videos, no matter what phone or camera you\u2019re using. Quik hopes to solve the \u201cblack hole\u201d problem of our phone\u2019s camera roll and ensures users will never lose track of their favourite photos and videos again.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">All figures, unless otherwise stated, are from OnePoll.
