— Easily find photos by keyword search.

*At present, the instant upload backup of mobile phone photos will generate folders under Home/MyPhoto/SmartUpload on the NAS. Each folder has a maximum of 999, so if you have many photos to upload at the same time; for example, 4000 photos on the mobile phone, it will cut into five folders.

Path: Home/MyPhoto/SmartUpload

*For NAS model AS10 series user, if you have more than15000 photos in your phone and want to auto-backup at one time, we suggest go to NAS Off-peak Hours to disable background process and enable background process once upload finish.
*It may take a while for photo indexing and thumbnail making especially for some entry models may take a day to show up if you upload a lot of photos at the same time.

Ratings and reviews

Asustor's apps are incredibly buggy. Wish I had played around with it more before my return period was over. The first AiFoto would crash when trying to connect and auto backup/upload tasks would be stuck at partial upload. AiFoto 3 just keeps crashing when you look at the tasks tab and it's just stuck on the same number of uploads remaining. It's set to run in the background and it's been given permission to run in the background but it doesn't auto backup. Unfortunately, I have no other options to backup my phone photos automatically. I guess I'll just stick to periodic backups.

doesn't work on pixel 8, if you try and turn on automatic backups the app will restart and go back to login, this puts you into a login loop every time you try and turn in automatic backups. it works in a pixel 9 pro xl strangely though just not on a pixel 8.

Works well. Only got 4 out of 5 because it could use more facial recognition or AI help to improve the experience.
