There is a app on the phone that auto-sync's any time I am on my local WiFi. If you want to expose it to the net or use a VPN to your house you can have it sync anytime you want it to. I run immich as a "app" on my truenas scale server but it would be dirt simple to set it up as a VM or on a raspberry PI or something.

Part of why I set it up on my TrueNAS system is because that also happens to be my largest networked storage that is also backed up and runs ZFS for stability so it made sense to me. Running it as a app means basically zero extra admin for me so it works.

I think I posted about immich under https://immich.app/ You can technically run it for free but they do like if you are willing to buy a license to support the project. This is one of the projects funded via the group that Louis Rossmann works with.

It also has local facial recognition/ai/etc for search that makes it really easy to find stuff/people.
