the mobile phone with the best camera hardware available does not allow e2e encrypted syncing of the photos you take on the device. you have to use icloud photos. icloud photos are not end to end encrypted so apple and the fbi can read them all.

does anyone know of any photo sync apps for ios that work continuously that can talk to my own devices?

i really really really miss syncthing on mobile. it's the only thing i truly miss from graphene.

@sneak I *think* this is the solution:

apps.apple.com/us/app/photosyn

I don’t have experience using it, but it’s been on my to do list to try for a while.

@sneak if you try it and it works well, please try and publish your thoughts on it. :)

@mike my first thoughts are that its table stakes features (full res sync) are paid features - and not just paid features, but *subscription* features. i use a new apple id on each device i use, and this means i now have to pay either $7/year or $24/device. this requires purchasing gift cards because payment cards link my identity to the apple id/device.

@sneak oh, dang. I didn’t realize it was a subscription — I really only saw people referencing it online as a solution and added it to my to do list.
