User reviews

The app UI and settings are fine. What I wanted this app primarily for is to sync my photos and videos to my nextcloud server. However, the problem for years with this app is that auto sync is finicky in that it works sometimes randomly and sometimes never regardless of battery optimization or even leaving the app actively opening. It still appears after all of this time there is no manual/force sync button in the UI. At this point I'm thinking of uninstalling and using something like FolderSync

Good but not great. The auto upload seems to work when it wants to, would be nice to have it check and upload on a configurable schedule so I don't have to turn it off and back on again in hopes that it starts working. When the camera isn't closed when taking a picture, for instance, auto upload won't consider newly taken pictures until the camera/photo apps are closed.
