I really like the way that dropbox has instant upload, so that all of the pictures I take with my phone get automatically synced when I connect to wifi. Is there a way to do this for other folders? I'd to be able to sync all pictures (downloads, instagram, whatsapp, etc) in this manner, is there a way to do this with dropbox? Or another app that can do this?

Hello, I have a question about the Gallery on the Nexus Galaxy. Is there a way to delete the "auto synced" albums from google+ and synced photos?
I wanted to use the gallery just for local photos that I take with the phone and that I import onto the phone from my computer, yet for some reason, even after I stopped syncing photos with google+ & synced photos, those stupid albums are still there, AND I cant take them off.
Has anyone found a way to take these off just so you have your camera album and other local only albums?
Thanks!
Mike

Link is not working ,i would like a solution to the problem too.
Picasa web albums. Go there, log in with your Google account and delete the albums
Edit: search picasa on Google. Its not an app
I still want these images on my google+ account, just not on my phone >_< is there a way to do that?
Have you tried to disable photo sync in the account and sync settings?
Yes, I have both that and instant upload turned off. I have also unchecked google+ to mkae sure that it wasnt that... But still after uploading new albums, those stupid picasa (or w/e) albums continue to come onto my phone! It's really annoying and stupid! I don't get why they can't realize that some people dont want all their public photos where their private ones are....
The USB connection on my Mac works fine with the little tool, but I would rather have some kind of wireless magic.
This is what I wish for: I'm coming home, my Nexus says "hello" to my WLAN and checks every X minutes if my Mac is active. If yes, start the two-way sync for the whole gallery – that means camera photos, screenshots, WhatsApp images and so on are transferred to my computer and new images are moved over to the phone.
If WiFi is disabled, the phone is in a foreign WLAN or my Mac is not reachable, the Android app should sleep.
There are a few apps, but I haven't seen the perfect solution. Take for example …
Dropsync: Multiple folder sync in the pro version. This seems very nice for Dropbox sync and should work with some aliases on the Mac to my Dropbox folder, but I have the extra step with the cloud in between.
doubleTwist AirSync: Looks nice, but I have no clue if it can be configured to run in the background (Android and Mac).
There are a few more apps with a PC background service which are unsuitable for me.
Is there a "nice and easy" app?
I use Google + and Picasa. The new Picasa desktop client syncs Google + galleries.
I have my phone set up to sync pics to G+, and my Mac syncs the G+ pics to the desktop client.
I would have opted for Picasa & Google+, but I can't get it to sync all folders on Android and the desktop app is a horrible mess with graphic problems on my Mac (Snow Leopard). :/ Or am I just too stupid?
So … this seems to be an unsolvable Problem.
I have all of my Picasa photos synced with Google+ - so everything I add to Google+ (Instant Upload to a PRIVATE gallery) gets synced over to Picasaweb. If I ever need my photos, I just grab them from Picasaweb. I don't keep photos saved offline because I have 20gb of storage on Google's servers (only $5/year - so cheap). Plenty of storage for docs, photos, etc.
Hi,
I wonder if there is a possibility to sync photos in my mobile phone and tablet not only to cloud at picasa/google+ but also to my hard drive in my computer. I would like to use google Instant Upload for this instead of some 3rd party apps and clouds. Because e.g. Dropbox syncs the photos from my phone and tablet pretty well but does not sync photos on mobile devicec. I would like to view photos from my mobile phone on my tablet too. And I want them to be synced automatically. Is there a way to do this? I wanted to try desktop Picasa for syncing but I cannot sync Instant Uploads "album".
Any ideas or tips for your way doing this? Thank you!!!
Any way for this?
I don't think that's possible.
The only way to do it will be manually I guess. After you tap (enlarge) on a friend's pic on WhatsApp, the image is stored in the WhatsApp/Profile Pics folder in your sdcard. Open that image and set it as the contact image.
I don't think auto syncing from WhatsApp to Contacts is implemented yet. Can't even think of a 3rd party app doing so.
I have activated app-data syncing with my gmail account, but my photos still aren't being synced like they used to before i installed LineageOS.
The gallery app itself does not have any kind of options / settings menu as far as i can see.
It's a hassle to manually upload or share images when i want to share them.
How do i get my photos to sync every time it is on a non-mobile internet connection?
