It does the job for uploading and backing up your photos... Kind of. So sometimes for whatever reason, the app stops automatically backing up photos you've taken. I've had to manually sign in to check and start the uploading process. Sometimes I've had to restart the app to start the backup process. Sometimes I can't sign into the server when away and not on my home wifi. Lots of issues, but does work in backing up your videos and photos.

Looks amazing, but occasionally gets: Unknown error occurred: empty response body, and can't upload anything anymore after that. It seems to happen with screenshots and downloaded images the most. While I'd like this to be fixed on the back end, ideally this would not block uploading every other photo in the meantime. All in all, can't wait for the official release.

At first, all was well. Now, I have had every issue under the sun...and it's only been a week using this app. Within the past week, it has stopped uploading all photos and videos (no settings have been changed), uploads duplicates (despite it being set to specifically not do so), won't allow me to delete photos or videos, and finally, after I tried opening the app for the last time about two minutes ago, absolutely nothing on the app will load.
