You tell me how to automatically sync photos across iOS+mac devices using non-Apple services. I'll wait. (hint: it's a monopoly, you can't use other services). Yeah, I know you can do a manual backup to e.g. Google Photos. It's not the same as seamless bidirectional sync.
OneDrive supports automatic syncing of photos from iOS to the Mac.
Will it actually do it in the background on iOS though? It's been years since I had an iPhone, but basically you had to keep the phone awake to keep the sync moving for any application that wasn't Apple's.
And it's the software I hate the most on my mac
Provided it…actually works, which shouldn’t be a high bar, but it’s one drive we’re talking about here.
And provided it doesn’t lose your stuff. Again, should be a core competency, but it has a track record of messing that up.
And arguably here, you’re trading one giant for a net-worse one?
Dropbox works also. It would be cool if one could do it via usb like other phones before.
