Works well if you need to sync with cloud services with a small number/size of data(~10GB) but anything larger than that will take a very long time to sync. Also, the auto-sync function is more like a scheduled sync. It will check and update every x hours/minutes that you define. So it doesn't live update upon new things being added. I'd recommend using Syncthing if you want a more robust service for syncing data across devices without using a cloud.

For me, the instant sync works from my mobile out to the cloud as soon as I change a file, but it doesn't seem to work for incoming changes (when I change a file from my other devices and the cloud updates). Is there no mechanism for it to be pinged by the cloud service to tell it a change has occurred and to sync? I've looked all through the options to try and figure out if there is a setting I'm missing but haven't found anything. I'm using an online Nextcloud service for it.

Great app! However I have one little suggestion. I am using the instant sync feature to move my photos to my personal cloud and then it is set to delete the copy from my phone. Everything is working perfectly...except...it does it too fast! Sometimes I take a pic to send to someone but before I can send it...it's gone! Is there a way to hold off 30 seconds or so before doing the instant sync?

This app has been a big life saver... especially since Dropbox implemented their 3 device limit for their app. When I have a home desktop, a laptop, a MS Surface, an Android tablet, and phone, this had helped. I use this to help keep my phone clean by syncing my camera folders and deleting what I want want from my PC. Great for my curated running music too. I use this on my kids tablets as well to sync their music and movies for when we go on trips.

Excellent app for syncing photos on my phone with Backblaze B2, or really, any compatible remote sync endpoint (e.g., Amazon S3). Wayyy better than the really poorly made official Backblaze app! Free tier has all the features, but this app was definitely worth upgrading to and buying the premium license. Thanks again for making a great app, Tacit!
