Gracias por crear app como estas !
Almost perfect but…
I will use it to replace my Google Photos and iCloud (Photos).
This application is perfect for syncing photos and videos with Backblaze cloud storage (which costs less than competitors).
However, there is one critical issue and tree key improvements needed before I can fully use the application and switch from Google Photos to you + Backblaze:
1.When tapping on a photo, do not open the one from the row above.
2.Add a “Photo Library” view that combines all photos regardless of the album (similar to the iPhone Photos app).
3.Once a photo is opened, allow swiping left to move to the previous photo (this is not currently possible).
4.Enable automatic synchronization that runs periodically in the background when the app is open, just like Google Photos.

Excellent
L’application me permet de faire une backup et de la maintenir à jour sur plusieurs fournisseurs de cloud différents dont Storj (S3) qui est une solution très rentable. L’application est peut-être encore un peu trop « technique » et pas assez « user friendly » ou simple à comprendre, mais elle fait le job, même avec beaucoup de photos.
Et les développeurs sont réactifs et à l’écoute pour améliorer l’application donc c’est agréable !

Nice tried
If the app can add photo management (move photos between folders)and allow existing bucket for storj, a bit more intuitive, will definitely give it 5-star
Response from developer
This app is not designed to be a s3-compatible storage file browser of your existing buckets. For that there are other apps that are designed to let you browse your existing storage buckets and transfer files. Photos+ by contrast is a complete Photo Management Library with image AI, geolocation tagging, partner sharing, etc., similar to for example Google Photos or Amazon Photos but one that uses your own s3-compatible account for its storage. As such, it requires that all photos be added through the app and it’s also why it requires selecting an empty new bucket in the initial configuration. Album move/copy will be added soon. Thank you.
Awesome
This is an amazing photo app !
I have been storing my photos on Google drive and looking for something that would manage my photos easier
I highly recommend this app

Great potential
The app has great potential to break the connection between cloud storage and a service running over top of it, in this case photo and video galleries. For it to work for my family I think I need to wait for an android app, and it’s a little light on features, but I can see some nice bones here. Will be keeping an eye on it. A macOS desktop app may help too, to pull down media for importing in to Lightroom Classic. Though I have to consider how expensive that may be at $0.01 per GB.
If anyone else is curious, they create two folders in your bucket, one with originals (original HEIC and MOV files, not exported jpg and mp4), one with optimized previews. Clever IMHO, they’re doing something like NextCloud but distributed where each client does and takes what it needs from “dumb” cloud storage.

I KNOW THIS GUY1111111111
I know this guy great app
Great alternative!
It took a bit initial convincing to get my wife, mom, and dad to sign up for this app and share our photos with it instead of using facebook, but now that we’re finally on it, we totally love it! Now we get to share all our photos without having to upload them to facebook and have to deal with all the annoying ads, and not to mention their horrible algorithmic feed where photos appear out of order which drives me crazy. I particularly love how the activity section shows everything in chronological order and in a list format where I can quickly scroll down to see everyone’s new photos, and the dark minimalist theme of this app makes it so much more comfortable to view photos.
Since we installed this, my wife and I hardly share anything to facebook anymore, now we just post the occasional photo on facebook for the distant relatives, but all the more private stuff we never really felt comfortable sharing on facebook to begin with, we now share on this app without worries since its completely private between just us. It’s almost like having our own mini private social network, just for ourselves. The only thing that I think is missing is a commenting feature, though frankly I think I actually like it better where I no longer waste time adding silly comments to photos.
