What should I use if I want to pay for a secure storage that detects faces and automatically backs up my wife's pictures?
Since switching to google photos I haven't had ONE single tech support request from my wife. That's priceless to me and worth the $100/yr alone lol
- mrfusion 6y agoDoes Apple offer some thing like that? Or is it only for photos you take with their devices?
- voltaireodactyl 6y agoI had this question for a long time and the two options I came up with are this: 1) Apple Photos -- obviously only works on macOS/iOS devices (although not only with photos created by their devices -- I imported everything from way before ever getting an iPhone, for example), but it's damn near flawless in my opinion, and even creates nice little presentation slideshow/videos called "memories" all on it's own, about one a day (highlighting specific people, events, or places). 2) A Synology NAS using their PhotoStation package + their mobile/desktop uploader apps (or PhotoSync on mobile, which is a bit more rock solid). Face recognition isn't as good as Apple/Google, and there's no automated AI stuff like Apple/Google either, but it works much better than I honestly expected, and I have no complaints from my mostly-tech-clueless family. Plus you own the hardware. I ended up opting for both.
