It was a challenge to get set up for all the devices (Macbook and phones especially). Once the initial backup was completed it has been working well. Apple and Google actively make it hard to use local storage like a NAS. They want everyone to pay for their overpriced icloud and drive storage. Now all our photos (and everything else) are backed up to the NAS. Having a local backup definitely provides piece of mind.

Don't call it "drive". After installing it, I spent 10 minutes searching for the app in my phone. Finally found out... But "drive" is a very generic name. Google play call it "synology drive". At least call it DS Drive, to stay consistent with your other apps. Just a thought.

Reliable and versatile enough to make specific granular folder backups with the Sync function. It can upload only, have two-way sync, or download from NAS only. It has browsing categories for documents, photos and files as well as one for shared files. No issues during use, and I use it to make instant uploads from my Xiaomi 15 Ultra. But backup function seems to be limited to default camera photos and documents folder.

No longer works since update. It says NAS is not powered on or no internet connection, but when I enter the QC ID it takes me to the login page and details are 100% correct as I can connect using laptops and PCs using the same credentials. Laptops can connect fine even when not on LAN and SMB works fine. Quickconnect.to works fine. Both android and apple mobiles are unable to connect, regardless if on or off the LAN. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the mobile apps and drive server on NAS

I was hoping that synchronization between my Android smartphone and the Synology NAS would be fast, but I get a lot of errors, and I often have to wait a full day for files (like photos) to properly sync. I have upgraded my Wi-Fi network, so that is definitely not the issue.

Something is not right about this application. It shows only old data, despite newly added files and folders on the drive.

Refuses to sync pictures or zip files properly. You thinking NAS app could upload photos without throwing a fit 🙄
