iOS Device Management

Administrators can configure how mobile users with an iOS device interact with FileCloud.  

Configuring Automatic Camera Uploads

iOS users can automatically upload photos and videos from their mobile device without manually having to upload.

(warning) As an administrator, you must first enable this feature before users can configure it on their mobile device.

Why would I enable this feature?

  • This is a very convenient feature and it mobile users to know that your photos and videos are always saved in a safe location.
  • Instead users saving all of their work files on their mobile device, they can save them to the FileCloud.
  • Mobile users can spend time constantly managing their images/videos to free up more space unless they are able to save them to FileCloud. 
  • If you are concerned about privacy and security, work-related files and photos are stored securely in FileCloud.

(lightbulb)  Keep in mind that with the amount of photos and videos generated by the mobile devices, the storage size can run out quickly.


To enable automatic camera uploads:

Note: The Allow Sync Apps setting in Server Settings must be enabled for Allow camera uploads to work. By default Allow Sync Apps is enabled.

  1. In the FileCloud admin portal's left navigation bar, scroll down and click Settings. Then, on the Settings navigation page, click Endpoint Backup .
