Camera Roll Sync 1.3.0.0
If the last options doesn't seem too appealing, then you can opt for having the photos sent to a cloud service like OneDrive as they are taken or you can perform the transfer manually whenever you have some time.
Camera Roll Sync is aimed at Windows Phone users who need a reliable means of having their pictures uploaded in the original resolution onto their OneDrive account.
Uncomplicated interface, focused on practicality
The application comes with a simple GUI that will not impress through any visually appealing elements of graphical design, as it relies more on the functional aspects.
The few functions are displayed upfront, so you don't have to go through any complex configurations to complete the job. The image previews as the pictures are transferred are well-sized and of very good quality.
Once in a while, you will come across some reminders that prompt you to leave a rating for Camera Roll Sync, but you ca deactivate and dismiss them with a couple of taps.
Quick setup and one tap synchronization
This utility is all about simplicity and there are very few things you will have to configure to make the transfers happen. Thus, you need to input the OneDrive destination folder, which can already exist or will be created automatically when the sync is triggered.
The other parameter you can tinker with is the date after which the taken snapshots will be transferred in the cloud. With one tap on the dedicated button you can start the synchronization and watch how the queued files are delivered one after the other into your OneDrive account.
The speed of the transfer may vary a lot depending on a lot of factors like the Internet connection speed or the actual size of the digital pictures queued for transferring.
To make sure everything goes on well and there no errors appear, it is advisable to leave the application in foreground until the upload is complete because switching to other utilities might have a bad influence over the process.

Bottom Line
Design / UI6
The looks of this app lack any visual appeal and since the graphics are so common and dull it loses a lot from the visual perspective. |
Function8
The ease of use is a definite asset and Camera Roll Sync does its job very well, but it needs some more advanced features like scheduled uploads. |

A bit too inquisitive, this application requires access to some sensitive areas of the system for no good reason. |
Battery4
While the utility is running, the battery usage is pretty high since it needs a lot of power to carry out the synchronizations. |
Price10
A quite valuable tool overall, Camera Roll Sync offers its entire functionality completely free of costs and annoyances. |

Made to work on almost every handset out there, the application needs to be installed and used onto a Windows Phone 7.5 or higher device. |
