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.

https://github.com/newhinton/Round-Sync. Not in any app store and have to download and install from GitHub.

It is an Android wrapper around ~~rsync~~ rclone.

Setup a remote, setup tasks, and setup triggers. Mine syncs every night. It supports encrypting with your own keys. Large number of remotes supported from self-hosted to cloud.

That looks neat and useful. It is an Android wrapper around rclone not rsync. Thanks for sharing.
