Download Synology Photos from the app store.
Once logged in you can follow prompts to upload photos and/or setup incremental backup (from now moving forward but not loading what's on the device now).
¶ Other Issues with Synology Photos
¶ Handling of Live Photo & incompatible formatting
By default if you have Live Photos saved on your camera they will be uploaded as such. I don't like that and have left it on accidentally lots of times.
Also, live or not the photo may not be stored in a standard .jpg format. The files have a .HEIC extension and might require special viewers (synology will view it but a user that can download the image may not be able to).
To address this BEFORE you take the pictures, on the phone go to settings->camera->formats and turn on Most Compatible.
To convert them AFTER the pictures are taken this is a great free utility...
¶ Convert on Windows
(to convert photos in Synology Photos app, download them to Windows, convert them, delete and replace in Synology Photos)
