I have Synology photos setup and working. It's also saving files from my phone. Question, if I setup another user with their own credentials and put Synology photos on there phone. Will the NAS us the same app to save their photos into their own Synology account or will it merge to mine? tia
 
Solution
Standard setting is to save it under the home folder of the user.
user can change the destination to shared folders as well, if that user has permission to write there.
Sorry to sound a bit dense but does that mean when I set up a second user (not admin) account and assign email and login details they will have completely separate folders if I then put synology photos on their phone and then use that to back up instead of google drive?
Its the main thing I bought this for and I have enabled this for my phone and would like to do this for my wifes phone as well.
