Daily Backup
In the “Photos” daily list, you can select groups of days to back up to a file folder or a private folder.
Backing up a daily group creates a daily folder and copies the contents into it.
Two settings can be made regarding the name of the folder to be backed up.
Date folder name
You can choose between YYYYYMMDD and YYYY_MM_DD.
Split the date folder by the first tag
If you want to split photos/videos of the same date by theme, you can back them up to a different folder by turning this check on and entering that theme in the first tag of the content.
For example, by setting the tags “Drive” and “meal” as the first tags of each content, the contents will be automatically divided into two folders, “YYYYYMMDD-Drive” and “YYYYYMMDD-meal”. Contents without tags are copied to the “YYYYYMMDD” folder.
