minus-squareBearOfaTime@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6arrow-down1·11 months agoWhat if you move the photos into the DCIM/Camera folder?
minus-squareresonate6279@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6·11 months agoThen it works. They just don’t let you manually select the folder. Has to be DCIM/Camera
minus-squareLunch@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·11 months agoWhat if one has a stupid Sony phone with stupid “Photography Pro” camera app, that doesn’t let you change the download path? Any tips?
minus-squareLUHG@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·11 months agoAhh 2 of us already. Wtf are proton doing? Seriously it’s android. We have loads of weird and whacky photo dirs.
minus-squareBearOfaTime@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·11 months agoGet Foldersync. It can automatically move the files there for you, instantly, or on a schedule. That app has been for years a lifesaver for me to put files where I want them.
minus-squareLunch@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·11 months agoThanks for the suggestion, but sadly that app is listed to have ads and it’s not open-source either, so for me personally that won’t work. However, I was recommended an app called Media Merger on F-droid, worked flawlessly for me!
