>automatic backups of my phone?
Full Android phone backup to a drive can be done with Seedvault on a schedule. I think you are asking about automatic upload though. I use Nextcloud to auto upload new pictures to my server as well as for Seedvault backup.
- em-bee 3y agoyes, automatic upload. schedules are impractical for phones that are not connected to wifi on a schedule. i also occasionally use the phone to take photos of items that i want to process on my laptop right away. syncthing is faster and more convenient than taking my camera and then moving the sd card from the camera to the laptop. for nextcloud i would need to set up a server that probably also needs to be always online. syncthing allows me to backup to my laptop and is opportunistic about it, ie whenever both are on wifi. i am also using syncthing to manage my audio files. on the laptop i decide what i want to listen to by copying the files into a specific folder, and that gets copied to the phone. when i am done with a file i delete it from the phone, and that gets synced back to the laptop. syncthing is perfect here, and so using it for backup in the other cases is worth it over having yet another solution.
