User Reviews

The consensus is that Synology Moments for iOS is a mixed tool hampered by reliability and performance problems. Many reviews report failed or slow uploads, background upload issues, and random files not being backed up. Stability is a major concern with crashes/freezes on iOS 14 and iPad. Users note slow processing and video loads, plus usability gaps like not being able to choose which albums to upload and missing live photo support. A few users still value it as a simple, local NAS backup/archiving option, but many see it as obsolete.

Pros

Easy backup function to Synology NAS.
Useful for long-term archiving of photo libraries across years.
Functional, not flashy—does what some users need.
Grabs photos from your iPhone and backs them up to the NAS.

Cons

Unreliable uploads and frequent failures, including background uploads not working and random files failing to upload.
Crashes, freezes, and rapid closing on iOS 14 and iPadOS.
Very slow performance: long upload times and slow video loading.
Usability gaps: cannot choose which albums to upload, no batch skip, and no live photo download.
Perceived obsolescence: app is considered obsolete or replaced by Photos, yet still available in the App Store.

Horrible app. Barely works when it does. Spent so much $$ with synology and they always disappoint. Make your customers happy not your pockets.
