Nothing worked

Spent over an hour tapping ever pic to transfer to my desktop computer from my phone. You should have to just slide your fingers n get over the pics as you move down. Totally ridicules for moving thousands of pic. After I got done nowhere was there a button to start the process of moving the pics.

Seriously Unimpressed

The concept for photo and video transfers is rather simple, but PhotoSync developers have this process all over the map. They don't properly display nor distinguish between source and destination within their program. They have a wealth of options, and the capabilities appear to be there, but the app is kludgy and they have made it more complex than is necessary. They claim that the wi-fi interface and file transfer is fast...but I disagree. I invariably have to put the IP address in the browser and download the zipped file...and it's not fast. I have had the program crash during wi-fi attempts routinely, and my system is state of the art. I also connected via USB port, and it's still fercockt. I cannot imagine how it's gotten the rating it shows.

Awesome app and great support!

I’ve been using the app almost a year now to sync photos to my NAS. Very reliable. When I contacted their support with some questions, they responded within a day and resolved my questions. Highly recommended

Can’t handle larger iPhone photo libraries

I got the subscription to this based on a co-workers review of the product. I have to say after two days of using this I am dissatisfied enough to want to uninstall it. When transferring a large library (Recent album for me) it does not handle files with identical names. That means if you took more than 10,000 photos and your photo numbers started rolling over again, you are bound to have duplicate names like “IMG_5312.HEIC”. PhotoSync doesn’t understand that, and will just copy over the files (using SMB to transfer to a network folder) without telling you. Not good for a program that is meant to back up your photos. I’ll be looking for any other option for backing up my photos. There are also other interface issues I didn’t like.

Family sharing is a scam

Paid full price for lifetime premium because it family sharing was advertised but it doesn’t work

Awesome app, and they offer a lifetime license

I love the app. Simple to use to sync my photos to my photoprism instance that I self host. I LOVE that they offer a lifetime license. I am so sick of subscriptions.

Excelent program

Been using PhotoSync for quite some time now. It is my go to program to offload all the large photo/video files on my Iphone, esoecially when I reach my icloud storage limit It is VERY flexible and allows uploads to all sorts of file storage places, plus deletes your large video files once they are uploaded to your NAS, file server, windows share drive etc SUPER USEFUL program!!!
