Apps to sync photos from iPhone to Computer?

[Phat^Trance]

Im looking for good and simple apps to sync all my photos from my iPhone 11 pro max to my Windows 10 computer (via Wifi and mobile data).

Are there any that you guys recommend? If possible, i would like the app to have a good gallery feature too, were i can view my photo gallery directly via the app (like google photo).

I have around 800GB of photos and videos and i want them all synced. i dont want to pay more than 50gb on icloud subscription.
Since i have my own server at home its better and cheaper for me to just sync the photos with my server than getting the 1TB icloud option to send the photos from my phone to my computer (or vice versa).

The best option would be an app like Google Photos, but with a gallery thats liked to a folder on my computer (instead of the cloud).

What sort of server is it? If you have a NAS such as a Synology they often apps that will do exactly that (for example Moments on Synology will do exactly what you're asking for and has an app that will display photos from your server on your phone, allow you to sync them to your phone and upload photos from the camera roll back to the server)

Athough Synology runs on Linux, I don't think you can install the packages on a non-synology box. You can install Synology DSM (which is their OS) on any x86 machine using xpenology so you could theoretically instally a VM running it I guess

No, i have 800gb photos on Google photos (free version) account and a backup of them on my server. Since google photos free version is soon about to end, i want to find an alternative method to access all my 800gb photos via my phone. Im not interested in paying 1-2TB cloud plans when i have a server (with 130TB drives) up and running 24/7.

The best version would be an app that is connected to my computer, so that when i open the gallery app, it will display the photos that i have stored on my computer (instead of an cloud account).

Are there any such apps?

Nope, its a Plex server (desktop computer) running Windows 10 with i7 Cpu and 130TB HDD.

Can't attest to how good it is, but Plex does photos... and even does 2-way sync (ie upload new photos from your camera roll)... but you need Plex Pass. There is also Amazon Photos which is free if you are a Prime Member.

Plex photo is really bad and has tons of bugs, even standard stuff doesnt work anymore since many month back and the plex team doesnt seem to be doing anything about it.

I cant even open the iOS app and enter the photo section without the app crashing etc.
