Ratings and Reviews
Needs a lot of work
Moving from Moments to this app I lost all the AI folders where I used to go to find specific photos not knowing when was taken to browse that way. Now it takes ages to find specific photos that I don’t know when was take. Very surprised you removed a major feature the AI.
“Upload Queue” is always at zero not showing the backed up or the queued photos, however I can see there’s quite a few photos to be backed up and backing up, just not showing under upload queue.
I didn’t find a better way to pass this feedback.
I don’t want to particularly open a support ticket since it’s related to a lack of app development at this point in time. I know it’s fairly new so knowing Synology products I’m sure you’ll improve it. Really hoping to be able to import all the AI folders from Moments into this app.
No Editing Feature whatsoever!
The app works quite well for storing photos and videos. As a photographer I mean issue with this app is that there is no editing facilities whatsoever if that timer to rotate the image. And what makes it worse is it if you edit the image before uploading to synergy photos and then you’ll be edit that same image you’re stuck with the original image uploaded in other words. No changes are made to the image uploaded in Synology Photos app. It’s quite frustrating as every other image app allows even basic edits. Come on Synology! When will you be fixing this problem? I Don’t want to be forced to stop using it and having to find another solution! Pleas give us a update and timeline on this..
Features needed.
Need to be able to drag/drop to custom reorder albums and *folders*. Do this with a sort file which maintains the order on a permanent basis. Needs duplicate checking. Exact duplicates, and some kind of image analysis for % similarity. It's amazing how they can have albums created based on object recognition, but not have some basic organising features.
Also the app desperately needs Split View support for iPad.
