Still the best

No comparison for uploading to Flickr!

Please fix upload on latest iOS 9.3.4 and iOS 10

Kindly fix the upload to Flickr on iOS 9.3.4 and 10.0. Additionally, Google photos as an example doesnt require to be open for background sync. Kindly implement the same for CameraSync as well.

Over 3 years now...

Ive been using CameraSync for just under 4 years to upload my Camera Roll to an FTP server in my home. It works well, and well worth the price. Ive discovered one small issue recently, however, which will only affect a small percentage of users. I take a LOT of photos. I currently have over 8000 on my camera roll and the sync process now takes about 15 minutes. The app is blank for about 13 minutes, then the photos appear. I assume when that happens, the app is busy determining which photos it has already uploaded. The actual upload process takes the usual amount of time. I would very much like to see that delay addressed by the developer. I have also started deleting uneccessary photos from my phone in the hopes that will help speed up the process. For 99% of all users, however, this app will likely perform quite well. It certainly has for me.

Dont buy!! Doesnt work!!

Gives error of ran out of background time. It says in description that it uses the location services. Still it works for few mins and then stops. Useless for uploading batch of photos. Feeling cheated as the description says that it works FLAWLESSLY. DONT BUY

Preferred choice for photo/video sync

i have tried a few and this is my top choice for photo syncing. I needed something with good recovery and sync to Box.

Peace of mind.

Heard about CameraSync on @macpowerusers podcast. Easy to set up with multiple cloud services. It gives me peace of mind knowing that my photos & videos are backed up in multiple places!

Great when it works. Has killd my whole internet before

Ive seen it completly kill my internet on large uploads. Even my desktop computer reports no connection avaliable. Stopping the upload makes everything work again. Had to remove the program. :( Other upload programs do not do this.

Works pretty well

I live rural - my Internet and cell phone service is pretty tenuous . It took a while to get all my photos synced into Box . A short learning curve about what to do every time the background synch gives up . Versatile app -I saw one other that Id like to compare . I give it 31/2 stars .

It used to work, now it doesnt

When the app worked it was perfect. It performed as advertised and expected. Something happened at some point though and now it fails to recognize that there are any new photos to upload. Im currently waiting for an update to the app or a response to my support ticket to see if it will work again.

Backgrounding fails

You have to leave it open for it to sync. Even though they said they fixed the bug for box users to not have to log in again, it still arises. The back grounding fails after a minute and it tries to restart from the beginning.

Awesome photo management tool

I use this app on all of the family iOS devices so that all of our photos are synced to DropBox. When they sync to our little home server they are moved into archive folders for safe keeping and easy access. The selective sync options and available services are awesome. Like some others though, Im having a few issues with the background syncing. Its inconsistent. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesnt. It would be really to have this fixed but even without that feature working perfectly, its a great application. I dont have to worry about managing iPhoto libraries or doing exports to have an all exclusive photo archive anymore.

Not bad app, background upload not working good

App is ok, but as i said, background upload is not working good.. It stops after 20 minutes or so, and i have to reopen app to continiue it.. Regret buying it

thanks!

Thanks for making such a great app. Love it so much!

This app has accomplished....

For a couple of years I have wanted to save my iPhone pictures all in one place. I have attempted to do it manually numerous times and failed. This app automatically in less than 24 hours has saved almost 2500 pictures that Ive been taking since 2007 and put them in my Box account automatically. I now can access all those pictures on any device anytime I want and I can clear my iPhone all of those pictures. This app is certainly worth a few dollars that it cost. Five stars all the way for this one!

Just what I needed ...

Did exactly what I needed ... moved all my older iphone photos to Flickr. Would have liked adjusting the time it would run while Im checking another app. But not a big deal when it took care of everything else. Very satisfied. And now Ive got a good alternative to Flickrs autosync. Thanks!!

Great app. Love sync to AWS

Hated paying ridiculous price for iCloud storage. This was a great app. Hope they support other file formats other than images soon

Reliable

Its a seamless way to safely get stuff off your photo roll. WebDAV support is great. Wish Id found this app sooner!

So far so good.

So far this has been a great app. Would like to see Vimeo integration.

Great Utility

Does just what it says. Great support for multiple cloud storage systems. Sync by location is very helpful, and the notification lets you know its working. Its a paid app so Ill be stingy on my fifth star: could use a design update. Also the app runs out of time running in the background (which may be out of the developers control); but how about some other options when it does? A "click here to continue" button? Not having to reload the camera roll? If the app cant sync my gifs to Flickr, can the app remember those and stop trying over again?

Good app

This will be awesome app if sync would work even when this app is closed, which does not. I have to remember to open it and it will do sync. I dont like my apps to be open all day. App should help to not to think about, but I guess it was done this way cause will drain battery.
