[SOLVED] Automated local folder move/sync actions? - eviltoast

What is a free and preferably open-source way to automatically move files from one folder to another on android?

My case: Basically my Camera app doesn’t allow for me to set where to store the captured photos, so I have to move them each time. How can I automate this?

I want to make all files that appear in one folder, (/DCIM/Photography_Pro/) moved to (/DCIM/Camera/).

Solved by suggested app in comments; Media Merger on fdroid!

    It would be good if possible as I already use SyncThing. But I dont think so?

      I think FolderSync can do folder to folder

      I use it for backing up to Drive, but it looks like it should work folder to folder.

      Not sure if it’s the best option though

        I looked at foldersync, but the free version seemed a bit limited and said it had ads.

          Ah yep, I think I had the pro version in that case

          Hopefully others suggest similar apps. It seems like a simple task
