We could go on, but the list of declined opportunities and missing features is excessively lengthy. There should have been two USB ports at least, and FAT32 (along with maybe ETX4 formatted) drives should have been accessible. And, on that subject, most NAS boxes support sharing printers on USB or connecting to a UPS, but neither of those is supported here.

Amazingly FAT32 isn’t included, probably the most common format for memory cards and flash devices.

The one (and only) USB port only works with NTFS, exFAT and HFS external storage devices. Sadly, cloud support isn’t the only feature that Promise tailored for very selective use. It doesn’t address the fact that many people use Dropbox, OneDrive, Amazon S3, Baidu Cloud, Box, Azure, HiDrive and a dozen other cloud services.

Unfortunately, this only works on Android in the US, as that functionality is disabled beyond those geographic borders.Ĭreating Smart Albums by location (GPS tag) works, but there is no way to create or change tags in the viewing application should you wish to more accurately place them.Ĭompared with the Cloud Sync functionality that Synology has in its NAS boxes this solution is remarkably limited. What it can do on iOS and Android is secure photos, videos, music and other known documents, ignoring all the other cloud data that falls outside those basic definitions.Ī selling point that Promise makes in its promotional material mentions how this device can automatically create Smart Albums based on using facial recognition tags that are applied by Apple and Google Cloud stored images.
