My ondrive account used to backup my photos, which was perfect.
I've had my s24 ultra for a while and recently my one drive has stopped backing up my photos and instead only shows the option of sanusung sync.
I do not want this.
I have gone through a the steps to unlink accounts, etc that is advised to remove the Samsung sync, which works for about ten minutes before Samsung sync overrides the camera backup in one drive once again.
This is beyond ridiculous. If this can't be resolved I will get rid of my Samsung phone and buy something that let's me choose how I use my one drive app, which I pay for and have had for MANY years.
Please can someone advise on how to stop the Samsung sync taking over.
As far as I know Samsung has not synced the gallery for quite some time now since they don't offer cloud storage beyond backups. I don't see the option at all for Samsung gallery sync.
To turn on OneDrive sync go to gallery settings and it should be at the top of the settings list. Make sure you have enough storage in your OneDrive account.
The OP stated that they do not want the gallery *synced* with OneDrive, but backed up. There is a difference. Syncing means that when you delete a photo from one location, it deletes if from the other, unlike the Google Photos backup, which will keep a backup photo in Google if you delete from the Gallery but delete it from both locations if you delete it directly from Google. Because I have the A54, which still has an SD card, I have the option to sync the gallery to OneDrive or simply back up selected folders on my SD card to OneDrive. I chose the backup.
