User Reviews

Users broadly praise Resilio Sync for fast, cloud-free cross-device syncing and easy setup for backups. However, recurring issues include mobile-to-desktop sync limitations, UI/UX inconsistencies and hidden features like sorting, and intermittent syncing problems such as pending transfers. Some mention NAS dependency and storage quirks, but the core feedback centers on solid peer-to-peer syncing with notable usability and reliability caveats.

Pros

Direct peer-to-peer sync across mobile and desktop without relying on cloud.
Easy setup and generally reliable for keeping backups across devices.
Fast transfers, including large files.
Good for sharing files across devices.

Cons

Mobile-to-desktop sync limitations: iOS/iPad cannot sync with desktop, reducing cross-device reliability.
UI/UX issues: incomplete features, unclear terminology, and a sorting bug that hides the date-added sort option.
Occasional syncing hangs or interruptions (folders stuck on pending or transfers stopping unexpectedly).

App seems to work well but you have to select each individual file or photo individually. What kind of design choice is this?! I’m synchronizing tens of thousands of photos from a few select photo albums on my phone. Why can’t I select the album? Or why can’t I drag and select ranges of pictures? Instead I have to pick each photo individually and that takes FOREVER! I finally gave up after selecting 2,000 photos and decided to try a different app that does allow me to sync an album. I can’t see using this app without the ability to add albums. Hoping this will be fixed in the future because I want to use this app, it has promising features, but right now it’s too slow and too inefficient to use with tens of thousands of files. Please add ability to select a photo album and include updating changed pictures that have been added or removed from the selected album. I’m sure that I’m not the only person who has faced this issue.

I used to have no problems with the app, but now the connection between my Linux laptop and iPhone keeps dropping after just a second. I’ve tried everything I can think of including direct connection and nothing works.

This app seems to backup photos fine. It also allows me to upload or download a file or two without issue. However, there are a number of problems. I think the most important one is the Files app integration just seems plain broken. I can see a few of my folders, but most are missing along with all my files. Second, the capabilities and user interface of the app feel incomplete. Finally, I think the terminology should be cleaned up to make things more clear. For example, the word “remove” is used to mean “delete the local copy of this file and replace it with the placeholder”, as well as “delete all copies of this file across all devices”, depending on context.
