Synology Moments

Why is this still here?

This app is obsolete and replaced by photos. Not sure why still in the App Store

This app cannot even perform the basic functions of uploading my images. If you leave the oboe to do its thing, it will pause the uploads and likely have a connection error when you return to check its progress. The interface is also seriously lacking…of you have a batch batch of photos to upload, you can’t “select all” and skip what’s already there. Auto uploads seems to not work, etc. Mobile connectivity is a major selling point for your NAS, and it fails. Let alone the fact that you have multiple apps and it should all be included into one.

Just as duplicates can be set to automatically skip, there needs to be a toggle (probably on by default) to skip items that cannot be backed up due to the file format. You should not stop backing up files just because you run into one file you don't understand; skip it and move on. By the way this still feels like a bad way to handle it, and you should just backup the file even if it isn't in a format that you can understand. What's the point of a photo app that A) doesn't understand all of the photo formats and B) refuses to back anything up that it doesn't natively handle? It's a file, copy it over and just leave a blank thumbnail because it doesn't understand the file. That's what it does inside the gallery when it doesn't understand the new RAW formats that the latest iPhones take.

This app is a must for photo back up and organization. The back up function is easy to use. However, the organization function is bad. Also, the app keep frozen on iPad every several months. I have to unload it and reset the app. Really annoying. Suggestion: - Improve the photo search ability. - keep the original album created from the device when backing up. - add the function to delete unwanted faces in face recognition page.

So, this worked great until I upgraded to dsm 7.0. Now moments is gone from my disk station, and not available in the package center.

Can you please add searchable descriptionsAs a property to each photo? I would love to be able to tag a photo with a statement like "Electric bill"And then later search the term "electric bill" to find the photo

This app can only upload iphone’s live photo, but can not download live photo from this app. I hope developers can add this function, or can edit live photo to choose which single photo to download.

Background upload is the major issue with this app. Another problem with Moments is the quality of playbacks of videos uploaded. However, there are some good features that exist in Moments but not in the newer app Photos. Will continue using moments for time being.

The one thing it is supposed to do, IT DOESNT. Random image files do not upload. And if you aren't paying attention you wouldn't notice. I'm too afraid to attempt "clean" to see if the ones if doesnt copy are left behind. This is a HUGE flaw.
