DS Uploader

Utility per Synology DiskStation per caricare più facilmente i file e supporti.

Please Note: This is a third-party app for your DiskStation and is not created from Synology.

DS Uploader is a separate upload utility for Synology DiskStation owners that makes it possible to easily and quickly upload files to the disk station or queue them for later upload on a WifI connection.

It has two main modes.

Separate File Upload

Files can be uploaded to the DiskStation by sharing them with the application. Simply select files or text data and choose the "share with" option of the respective app. When you choose DS Uploader you can choose a folder on one of your shares on DiskStation. You can even present a standard folder to always upload your files to the same directory.

File uploads will only occur in case there is a WiFi connection established. In other cases DS Uploader will remember the files to be uploaded and upload them once a WiFi conenction has been established.

Automatic Media Upload

In case you select a path for automatic media upload in the settings screen. DS Uploader will watch your media library for additions and automatically upload these files to the specified folder. This makes it easy to keep the pictures taken in sync with your device.

This service will only run in case you select a directory in the config screen. Otherwise DS Uploader will have no background services running.

Requested Permissions and why they are needed:

- Internet: DS Uploader needs this to connect to the network and your DiskStation.

- Network State: DS Uploader needs this to know whether you are connceted to a WiFi or not.

- Read Storage: DS Uploader needs this to access files on your storage system that you want to get uploaded.

- Write External Storage (on devices prior to Android 4.3): When you upload files from data streams to your server it is not guaranteed that this data will still be there when we try to later upload it to your DiskStation. Therefore we create a local copy of the file in a cache folder on your SD card (deleting it once it has been uploaded). Writing to this cache needs a permission to write to your SD card on devices prior to Android 4.3. We don't write anywhere else on your SD card.

- Boot Completed: To restart the media checking service in the background once the device is restarted this is needed.

- In-App Purchase: If you use the app very frequently we will display a small nag screen prior to frequent uploads and ask you to support the app development by buying DS Uploader for a small amount. You can always chose to ignore the nag screen and the app will still work fully. Thank you for your help!
