Pre-Submission checklist

  • There is no existing issue that already asks for this feature.

    If no, please add a +1, and maybe a comment if you have more to add.
  • The feature already exists in rclone (on your PC or in Termux)
  • I am prepared to help make this feature

This is a successor if #38 was implemented.

What problem are you trying to solve?

it would be great if there'd be a default question be added whether the user wants to sync photos.
Big platforms give photo sync out of the box because they want to read and use the data from pictures. And users want to have backups in case their mobile device got lost/broken/whatever.

With rclone encryption users could have encrypted cloud backups โ€” the best of two worlds!

What should RCX be able to do differently with help this problem?

Asking users whether they want to sync photos (and with which storage) in a user friendly way.

Photo sync is a must have feature for any android sync client. With RCX and encrypted remotes we will be able to sync photos securely.
Can't wait for this feature.

+1 for this

+1 I agree, a feature like this would be amazing!

Same, would love to pitch in some money to make this happen.
Also, it would be nice to have daily background syncs
