I mostly use iCloud for photo sync. It would be nice if there was some sort of API or something that third party applications could use to upload and download photos automatically in the background, like iCloud Photos does.


I use PhotoSync [0] to backup to my own self-hosted S3 on my NAS, it works pretty well.

I use icloudpd

No uploading new photos, though.


can this be handled by a "shortcut" ? more config I know, but there are essentially CRON triggers that could be used to upload new photos to some external system maybe?


Doesn't the Google Photos app do that?


You mean like WhatsApp does on iOS?
