The major cloud storage services (DropBox, Box, etc) have services that allow the auto uploading of photos taken from the iPhone. This frees up space on the device. Is there a way to upload directly to SM?
Well every person you can know,
And every place that you can go,
And any thing that you can show,
You know they're nouns.

    Hi There!

    SmugMug currently has two apps on the Apple and Android app stores. Both allow for uploading, though at this time only Camera Awesome will upload automatically to SmugMug if the settings are enabled. The option is in 'Settings' under 'Backup'.

    You may want to take a look at PhotoSync, it's a third party app that allows uploading to SmugMug from the Camera Roll: http://www.photosync-app.com/photosync/en/features.html

    Below are the links to our Apps.

    Android:
    Camera Awesome, Camera app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.smugmug.android.cameraawesome
    Smugmug Browsing app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.snapwood.smugfolio

    Apple iOS
    Camera Awesome, Camera App: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/camera-awesome/id420744028?mt=8
    SmugMug Browsing App: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/smugmug/id364894061?mt=8

    I hope this helps.

    Thanks for the tips. I'm going to give CA a shot for a while.

    McKSauce:

    I know this is an old thread but I was searching for this exact auto upload feature as a backup of my phone photos. Will Camera Awesome preserve my phone's metadata and photo's full resolution when uploading? I hope to get the auto upload feature in the Smugmug app soon, if you don't mind adding that to the feature request.

    Secondly, I'll look into Photosync. I'm always wary about giving my login credentials to a third party service/app. Can you vouch for them, not just for their features, but for trustworthiness?

    I us PhotoSync as I have said above (iPad & iPhone)when I'am traveling because you can add a caption before you upload to SM

    Which Camera Awesome 'Backup' options must be turned on to auto backup to Smugmug? Thought they were for backing up to iphone Photo Camera Roll.

    • Cloud Archive

    Cloud Archive must be on. That will send your pictures from Camera Awesome! to your SmugMug account. Archive over wifi only will only upload photos if your phone has a wifi connection.
