Press release
touchbyte releases PhotoSync 4.6 for iOS
PhotoSync 4.6 fully supports iOS 15 including a new Smart Album for RAW photos. It also includes additional metadata support, resizing of videos (optional), as well as support for Pro cameras that support FTP transfers (Premium only).
PhotoSync is free to download. The free version allows you to fully test all transfer functionality but transfers only in reduced quality. This limitation can be removed by upgrading to PhotoSync Pro (one-time purchase inside the app). All existing PhotoSync users do not lose any functionality and are automatically upgraded to PhotoSync Pro. This release also introduces PhotoSync Premium with exclusive features for power users. Premium is available as an upgrade inside the app (one-time purchase or subscription with free trial, special discounts are available for existing users).
Here are some of the new features:
