There are solutions like ente and immich but I think they both are pretty overkill for my use case. I almost never look through my old photos so I don't need an app and a web UI or whatever. The face detection thing does not entice me either. I don't need encryption either.

Is there a simpler solution for this? I am thinking of just writing a script that syncs the camera folder using adb or something like that. But before I create a jank monstrosity I thought it would be better to ask around.

Huh, I've had it run on battery for years, is there some serious bug with that? I don't have it run on cellular data or in battery saver mode though.

I had it initially setup to run on Wi-Fi too, battery or charging.

Then I had my battery drain to 30-40% during afternoons, when I'm used to reaching evenings above 60%. Check app usage on settings: Syncthing.

Since I use it mostly for backing up photos, I found it better to enable it only when charging.
