Photosync is basically a small piece of software you install on your server or any computer/laptop in your home network. Then for each device you want photos backed up from, you install an app. I use it on my Android and my wife's iPhone.
The software will automatically back up any new pictures that are on your phone (including camera gallery, whatsapp, MMS, screenshots, anything!) to the server. You can set parameters on when backups are done. I set it to backup anytime the phone is connected to Wifi and a power plug. You can also set it up to backup whenever the phone enters your home network, e.g. when you return home.
You can also choose to backup to Amazon cloud, Google drive, dropbox, or a bunch of other cloud services. You can use FTP, WebDAV, pretty much anything.
One last thing is that the author is very nice and responds directly to your emails. I have emailed him twice in the last few years and he worked me through fixes.
I would recommend Photosync highly. Mine is set up on my home server. Photosync sends pics to that server. Then a Synology device backs up the server. Family pictures are important to me -- I want a backup of a backup.

You will be better off by using Google photo. This thing is not secure at all.
Yes, you can do syncthing (setup is kind of .... not user friendly), but you still need a drive, no?
While I do not think this should be your ONLY backup, but for $40 - this is not bad and AFAIK very simple.
Only way I can see to backup up to another drive is to manually download your photos using the desktop app and then drag and drop to another drive.
Have you figured out any other way to backup the ibi drive?

Initially synced all photos from Google Photos. After that the app stores from iPhone/pixel whenever on wifi. One key feature missing is freeing up space on the phone after backing up. I use Google photos for that after making sure Ibi is all synced.

Also does this sync properly for large video files? When I used some other tools like nextcloud, that is one area where I found it to fall short. If it doesn't sync, does it notify, so that those can be manually moved? (like over USB by connecting phone to ibi to move it quickly for larger files instead of wifi)
I opened one up today and it was DOA. No lit LED or whirling noise so I took a multimeter to see if I was getting anything from the adapter. 0V. I tried a few different outlets and no go. I decided to slam the adapter onto my butcher block in the kitchen and the adapter started working. It was showing 12 volts on the meter. I plugged the ibi in and it started blinking.
After downloading the app, it was easy to set up. Crazy easy and the software looks decent. I have a 512gb iphone 12 pro and i started a backup. Lets see how long it takes. I have some long videos (over 30 mins)) for content creation so that'll be a good test as some of my other apps get hung up on long video files.
I'll try the second ibi tomorrow when I get the time.
Before I delete the backed up photo, I'll back it up to one of my NAS drives so I'll have a backup of a backup
I seeing same issue
My transfer hung and hers stalled at onset, since then unplugging/replugging does no good - I'm getting a DEVICE IS NOT CONNECTED error.
I'll troubleshoot later but it's not looking good...

I'm syncing about 4k (file count not resolution) media files including about 660 videos and some 360 VR photos and 360 VR videos and panoramics and I'm 80% done. I think the last group of files are videos because it's taking much longer than the first few thousands.
I wouldn't personally have two users sync'ing just because it's an smr drive. Random access simultaneously with various jobs doesn't work well with those drives cuz of buffering requirements and the weak processor in the ibi. Just don't.. Wait until one person is done sync'ing. So far so good but I hope I didn't jinx myself.
Also, don't unplug the ibi.... at least not so fast. You'll cause filesystem integrity issues due to buffers in memory not being written out to disk.. When you added your wife's set of pictures that little processor is generating a list and hanging up the whole system. Just let it do it's thing... or just don't sync the 2nd set of photos (wife's) until yours is done.
Update:
Ibi finished syncing my files at 6:20 (started at 3:30pm) so it took about 2hrs 50 mins. Not bad.
Now sync'ing wife's iphone. She has about 2500 pics/videos.
