How my brother's iCloud account was stolen

I highly recommend PhotoSync for iOS. I believe it’s about $25-$40 for a lifetime license. It’s hugely configurable in terms of targets, triggers, and schedules for upload. But most importantly to me, it’s been rock solid and I’ve never run into an issue with it. Only thing to remember is to open it once upon reboot. Works brilliantly after that.

Seconded. I don’t keep photos on my phone for very long, instead I regularly upload them to a self-hosted PhotoPrism instance via PhotoSync.

Make sure to check the saved photos. I stopped using it after I found that random photos were blank after the export. It wasn't reliable, and I only backed up 20Gb, so not that much.

I definitely check it regularly because I’m insane; but in the years I’ve been using it I’ve thankfully never had the issue you describe.
