The app is horrible after the long gone refresh click is gone. My photo file structure is constantly tweaked by my family as they upload photos and without the refresh feature I can no longer see the current file structure in order to upload. Great server, great photo and video upload speeds IF AND ONLY IF I can see the file structure.

Doesn't work with Synology drive. Can't change location of the ds photo folder, so there is no way how to sync pictures with Synology drive. Upload is fast, but browsing uploaded photos is too slow, takes almost a minute to open a picture. This app is totally useless

I spend a lot of time debugging this app. It's not able to create all my folders/albums, after talking with the support team (more than 1 week) it has problems with indexing and database... Don't loose you time guys.
Zach Whittle
2020-04-21T05:45:25.200Z
Would be a great app, if it ran better. It's super slow, especially when compared to someone accessing the same server with the iOS app. Seems to be an issue across all of the android DS apps.

Fix your stupid app. I got 2 weeks of use out of it, and thought it was amazing. All of a sudden "Log in - Unknown error". DS File works just fine, why can't I get past the Login screen on any of my devices with THIS app?

I keep having errors about self signed certificates, which isn't true... One missing feature would be to upload/backup photos only while the device is charging. That would allow my device to be more energy efficient, to wake up my NAS less often and batch upload without hassle. Additionally, whenever I make images & videos available offline by downloading via DS Files, DS photo reuploads the copies as separate files... backing up my backup copies...

Simple but finicky app. I mostly just use this to make sure our mobile devices pictures are backed up, and in that sense this app is great. Runs quietly in the background getting everything. Browsing and searching is cumbersome though with permission errors popping up or the folders not displaying the updated pictures.

2020-02-27T22:47:41.534Z
Terrible. Omg worse! Most images are blank. Doesn't always upload images but won't tell you. Looking at a photo I've backed up. On my home network. 'the photo can't be downloaded just now, please try later'!!!

The filter functionality does not work. The keyboard closes as soon as I go to enter my keywords. If I by chance manage to enter it fast enough, it shows the results for a second before refreshing and removing the filter. Terrible experience, especially with a large library where filtering by keywords is absolutely necessary.

Really solid app. Good UI, even on tablet. What I'm really missing is a way to download pictures to my mobile device. I can share copies and links (public and private, nice!), but can't download. Weird oversight. Also, please let me rotate pictures!

Could not use this at all, could do with a simplified tool to set up the router to port forwarding, im not a techie on this and most people would not be, i gave up after multiple tries, Shame really does look good but not to pull all my hair out! So Dropbox is the anlswer that was so much easier to use

Will not connect. I have a brand new Synology 420j, but this app keeps telling me I have to check the IP and version. Other DS apps work.

(1) Doesn't connect to the NAS using a hostname. Can only use IP address OR QuickConnect ID. iOS version of the same app can connect using hostname. (2) Can't share photos using other apps like WhatsApp. PLEASE FIX!!!

App works okay to upload pictures. Interface is it very user friendly. Must do steps in exactly the right order. Once you click upload you cannot create a new album. Albums must exist prior to starting upload procedure. This isn't how most save as style dialog boxes work. bigger issue is that pictures on my phone are not sorted in the albums I have. I have thousands of pictures which are sorted. The only way this app sorts them in the upload window is by time. Takes me forever to pic my photos.

2019-05-10T20:26:11.895Z
This is an excellent app. The one MAJOR issue I have with this is the file limit if 2gb for photo backup. Video files are getting larger and larger with every iteration and generation of mobile phones. 2gb is no longer a large file. The limit needs to be removed asap. My video files are way bigger than 2gb on their 4k 60p setting. Please fix this. It's way overdue.

Backup does not upload the photos under subfolder of DCIM. For example, my phone (Samsung S8), only stores the photos under directory DCIM/Camera, which causes none of these photos being uploaded to the NAS.
Kris Pass
2020-01-19T10:56:21.345Z
Not very user friendly. Photo backup will not let me create a folder to backup to. slideshow wont work if more than 10 pics in folder. App gets less user friendly over time.

works flawless, Amazingly easy and fast. easy to access and make changes. many others complain about the app or the Synology, they just don't know how to manage a cloud system nor server setup, as an IT professional, this app pretty much does what it supposed to. Make sure your Synology and all the required apps up to date while this one up to date. not knowing how to run a server is the issue for other users who couldn't get it to run stable.

Uninstall and forget all DS apps and others similar offerings from Synology since they neither work 100% of the time against Synology's own NAS hardware. Just use a powerful file explorer like Root Explorer, etc, that offers connection via SAMBA. Sure, you may not be able to auto sync content with file explorers (you can do it manually though). You do, however, get everything else working with your Synology NAS like in-place editting, etc, and it works 100% of the time with a file explorer.

2019-10-21T04:26:03.218Z
After multiple attempt to login, I figure out that you have to install application called 'Photo station' inside the Synology itself. Ok. But it finally does not work as I need. For example it has a limit for 300 items for upload. I have 1400 now and don't want to spend more time for looking the solution. It better to find out third party software or write down your own
Martin Dentith
2018-09-18T23:05:36.525Z
It's ok. Does what it needs to do with minimal fuss. Three minor gripes. Photo backup doesn't always automatically backup on Wi-Fi as stated in previous reviews The timeline is my favoured view. Why can't it be set as the default view? It could also do with being a little more polished aesthetically. Otherwise can't complain.

Synology android apps are nothing but a failure. As always, DS photo never ever lets you login peacefully. Despite putting correct IP address, username and password, login always fails.

simply doesn't work on my android phone. Other app like DsVideo, DsFile work well, but I can't connect to my NAS with DS Photo. An error message like "Login failed.Please make sur your Synology NAS IP is correct and the DSM version is newer than 6.0" Well 1) I used the same account tto login to my NAS with DS File, DS video... 2) my DS version is 6.2.2... So what's wrong???

Frustratingly bad app. On android its completely random if I'm able to see full size images in my albums. Thumbnails display fine, when trying to view full size some display, others just get a black screen with refresh symbol. Photos that work vs photos that dont exactly the same .jpg format. Useless app.!

I like that fact it keeps all photos in the same order I created but WHY I can't share folder with subfolders in it??? All my pictures already sorted by years folders with month folders in it and no way to create sharing album for the year that includes all months subfolders and pictures in them 🤔 when i try to add month folder to shared empty year folder app stops working

I no longer can move photos between albums. States I do not have permission to manage folders. I checked as admin and the user permissions are set properly. I still cannot move photos if I sign in as admin user. Therefore this is a bug. Happens on both iPad and Android phone. Browser on computer works as expected.

1. Filter doesn't seem to be able to read TAGS, so you cant search by entering tags. 2.App only sees images in /photo folder. I want to be able to select mycustomfolder with images. Indexing mycustomdolder doesn't help because Photo Station sees only the images in /photo folder.

Real potential here, and should be a great way of accessing the photos on your Synology NAS. But the app is buggy, crashes constantly and often displays images partially off the screen. 🙁

Unbearably slow app. I have 100/100 connecition and File manager is mutch faster for viewing photos. Please optimize this app. It shoud be snappy and convenient app not a liability. Im really dissapointed and feeling cheated.

The entire synology is waste of money. Cannot access app outside of my home network. The support sucks. And the only solution they come is quick connect. I am sure the product works, but the support and the tutorial sucks. Therefore would not recommend this.

Unreliable. I use this to backup photos from my phone to my NAS. Whilst away from home, wifi off, nothing for the app to do, it consumes prodigious amounts of battery - doing what? When I return home, wifi connected, the app might - or might not - start to back up my photos. Often it does sweet nothing and I have to open the app and press 'backup' in the menu before it decides to start. Edit: unable to handle heic format photos, so now totally useless.
