Sync for Files synchronizes your phone’s photo library, including the albums and folder hierarchy, to the Files app (On My iPhone, USB drives, NAS devices, and Shared folders). For users who like to organize their photos into folders and albums, Sync offers many advantages over saving your photos and videos to the Files app and manually recreating your folder structure within the Files app. - Sync automatically creates folders and albums you have created in your phone’s photo library in the Files app. - Saves the video component of Live Photos. - Saves the edited versions of photos and videos. - Mirror or back up your photo library. - Synchronize your entire photo library or only certain folders and albums. In summary, each time you run Sync, it will make sure any changes to your phone’s photo library are updated in the Files app, overwriting, renaming, saving, and deleting items from the Files app if needed. Sync will also NEVER delete any photos from your phone. Sync performs a ONE-WAY sync only, making a folder in the Files app match your photo library. Any changes made in the Files app will not be synced to your phone, rather, the changes made in the Files will simply be overwritten the next time you run Sync.
