Hello everyone. I’m rather new to the Apple/iPhone ecosystem.

I have an iPhone 7 running iOS 15.8.3. I’d like for all new files in a particular folder (/var/mobile/Library/Preferences/wiki.qaq.trapp/Recordings)
to automatically be uploaded to the cloud (such as Google Drive or iCloud). How can I do that?

If it makes any difference the iPhone has been jailbroken.
 
Hi blanket down,
Usually if you want cloud storage to be running you would need to have your Mac/iPhone running the latest software, (18.3 I think) because apple does have this thing of not letting you upload to the cloud. You could maybe if you wanted to upgrade to an iPhone 13??? So that way it would be smoother. Then you can just put your files into files(the blue icon) and as long as you have cloud space (Settings, tap on your name, iCloud) it will automatically upload.

Hope that helps!

thanks for your reply, apple8and6. I appreciate learning about what the latest iOS can do that my iOS15.8.3 can't.
Is there some alternative besides getting another iphone? (This iphone 7 was a gift.)

Im so sorry, I didn't realize it was a gift😭
Im not too sure, but maybe you could just move all the bits and pieces into files and hopefully it works!🤞

no worries :)
What do you mean move into files? The stuff in the folder are files.
