Import photos on the mobile app kDrive (iOS)
This guide explains how to automatically transfer photos from your mobile device (iOS) to kDrive Infomaniak.
Introduction
- Once this feature is enabled, the photos from your mobile device will be saved in a folder of your choice on kDrive.
- Foreground mode: synchronization works optimally when the kDrive app is active and in the foreground!
- Limited background mode: background synchronization is subject to the following constraints:

- The application may be reactivated automatically by iOS every 15 minutes or so, for sessions of a maximum of 30 seconds.
- At night, if your device is charging, not in use, and connected to the Internet, the application may benefit from several hours to perform background uploads.
