I use iPhone13. Pictures taken by my iPhone turn nicely up in the Arc app at correct time an location. My problem is that the photo album in the Photos app gets too crowded. Can you suggest a strategy to solve this? Can I store the pictures in Dropbox or another place and have them showing up in the Arc app?

Hi @torej!

Unfortunately as a solo developer I don’t have time to build support for multiple services in most cases. I have to focus on only the most commonly used service, which in this case is Apple Photos / Photo Library.

To deal with your photo library getting too full, I recommend turning on iCloud Photo Library in your phone’s iCloud settings. That will allow your library to expand beyond the storage size of your phone.
