Android gallery + transparent cloud sync

Photo backup should not be a black box.

SyncGallery shows what will be backed up, what already exists in the cloud, what was shared, and what will change next — before automatic sync touches your files.

Built for photos and videos on Android phones, tablets, and Samsung DeX.

The usual backup problem

You changed phones and now the same photos exist in several places
You do not know whether a photo is really backed up or only visible locally
Your cloud contains duplicates, but deleting them feels risky
You shared photos with family or friends and later lost track of what went where
Your backup runs automatically, but you do not fully trust what it is doing

Backup should be automatic.
But control must stay visible.

Preview the first sync before anything changes.

SyncGallery scans your device and cloud first, then shows the planned actions before it uploads, skips, or removes anything.

First-sync preview showing detected files and planned actions before any change runs

See new, existing, duplicated, and skipped files before sync starts
Match files that are already in the cloud instead of uploading duplicates
Start with a clean plan instead of guessing what the app will do

Automate the boring part.

After setup, SyncGallery can keep selected folders and rules in sync quietly in the background.

Scheduler status showing automatic sync running in the background

Scheduled and background sync for selected media folders
Rules decide what goes where, so you do not repeat manual work
You can still open the app anytime and see what is happening

Every destination becomes a button.

Send a photo to backup, family, friends, or another cloud folder directly from preview. Tap again to take it back when the rule supports reversible actions.

File preview with one-tap actions for upload, share, and remove

Route the current photo to a named cloud destination with one tap
Use different buttons for backup, family folders, friends, or projects
See the status on the photo instead of remembering where you sent it

No share-sheet hunting. No hidden copies. Your most common destinations stay on the photo itself.

Stop dangerous changes before they spread.

Automatic sync is useful only when it is predictable. SyncGallery adds protection around bulk changes and conflicts.

Bulk-change threshold settings protecting against accidental mass deletions

Warn before large deletions or unexpected mass updates
Detect conflicts instead of silently overwriting important files
Keep a visible record of what changed and why

A task manager for your sync.

Backup should not disappear into a background service. SyncGallery shows live progress and past operations in plain language.

Tasks history showing the full log of past sync activity

Watch current sync progress while it runs
Review previous uploads, deletions, skips, and errors
Understand problems without digging through cloud-provider apps

Share selected photos without losing the trail.

Create shared cloud destinations, route photos there from SyncGallery, and keep visibility over what was shared.

Family shared folder showing files shared with specific people and cloud destinations

Use named destinations such as Parents, Family, Friends, or Archive
See shared photos grouped by rule or destination
Change your mind without manually hunting through cloud folders
