> I suspect people want their entire photo folders mirrored into Nextcloud from the device, which would fit under the "backup utility" category. Exactly. Many people use Nextcloud's auto-upload to backup important data from their phone. In addition to photos, I use it to backup FreeOTP and WhatsApp, for instance. This does not work with the version from Google Play, see https://github.com/nextcloud/android/issues/14334 https://github.com/nextcloud/android/issues/14334 EDIT: After some research, I think even that use case should be possible with SAF, you just need to move your backups to external storage that you can access via SAF.
