Full description
PhotoCopy is a robust image/video backup application designed primarily to use the SMB protocol to perform backups as seamlessly as possible. PhotoCopy was built for personal use originally, to overcome limitations that other applications had - primarily, not performing post-transfer validations and just assuming the upload worked properly. PhotoCopy not only allows you full control of what you back up, but also *how*. Adjust your validation method - ranging from a full "redownload and verify" to a simple "check metadata" - or turn off the validation. The choice is yours. PhotoCopy is laser focused on doing one thing, and doing it well - backing up your precious images. As more users move from cloud hosting to self hosting, image backups are becoming more and more important to many people, and we want you to feel confident that the data on your SMB is the data you sent - not corrupted, not failed, and especially not silently accepting of problems.

What's new

- Automatic backups now resume more reliably after interruptions or app restarts. - Failed transfers are retried without repeating files already backed up. - Pending file reviews are preserved across restarts, with fixes for applying and cancelling reviews. - Backups handle destination and settings changes more safely. - Dry runs no longer trigger repeated automatic backups. - Improved transfer performance and responsiveness during backups.
