New Universal App: CameraSync

App Store Description: CameraSync for iOS4 allows you to upload all pictures & videos from your Camera Roll to your Dropbox, iDisk, FTP server, Amazon S3 bucket, Flickr account or Box.net account.

Do you regularly take photos on your iPhone and want to make sure they're backed up and always accessible? CameraSync has got you covered.

Tired of e-mailing photos and screenshots to yourself just to get them onto your computer? Tired of having to connect your iPhone to your computer just to get a couple of new photos? CameraSync will make sure they're all ready & waiting for you.

Got an iPad with a Camera Connection Kit? Want to be able to upload the new photos you've taken on your camera from anywhere? CameraSync can do that for you.

• Background Uploading - with iOS4 multitasking, after you've started the app, CameraSync will upload your photos even in the background while you use other apps. It will even alert you when it's done.
• Zero Interaction Required - once you've setup your accounts, all you need to do is open CameraSync to keep your remote photos up to date. You don't need to pick which photos to upload, or confirm the upload, or fiddle with settings - it just works!
• Full Quality Uploads - CameraSync doesn't compress or resize your photos & videos so they are uploaded in the full quality you took them in, no pixels left behind!
• Smart Syncing - CameraSync remembers what it has uploaded so if you delete a remote file you don't want anymore, it won't just sync it again.
• Retina Display Support - CameraSync fully supports the retina display with gorgeous high resolution graphics.
• iPad Support - CameraSync can upload photos you've imported to your iPad using the iPad Camera Connection Kit.
• Automatic iPhoto Import - Just follow the short tutorial here to enable photos and videos from CameraSync to be imported into iPhoto automatically.

Has anyone gotten this to work?. Mine just keeps saying "connecting" for a LONG time.

Does it let you send photos from your computer to your iPhone and maintain full resolution?

[Doug Chapin]

From the developer regarding hanging on Connecting...
"Yesterday we discovered this bug with the app when running on devices with an older firmware (pre- 4.2). We've already sent a fix off to Apple and told them to hurry it as a critical bug fix. It is already in review and we're hoping it should be available within the next couple of days - although you can never be sure!"

Richard, it goes the other way around - from iPhone to "cloud." For the "cloud," you can use Dropbox, box, iDisk, or any FTP. It pushes EVERY photo/video on your phone to your choice of site at full resolution. You can get it to go automatically into iPhoto (tutorial and more info here)
