A Mobile Phone To Only Transport The Sync Differences

Recommended Posts

I am forgetful chap and have lost phones and memory sticks. I am best not trusted transporting (on foot) a great deal and have no interest in running a connected machine/server to sync too (security patches, power, etc).

My android phone has a few gigabytes spare. Is it possible to only sync the differences to android at home. When at work, sync to start the day? A private cloud on foot.

The total file repository can then exceed the free capacity of my phone and I can wory less about losing stuff.

Pete,

 

BTSync is not capable of storing only difference on one of peers. All peers are equal, so all information is stored on every peer, except the cases when peer is a mobile with selective sync enabled.

 

Selective sync is an option for you, but it will require you to decide which files have changed and which files to sync to android (however, they will be auto-synced when you arrive home).
