Best free app to automatically upload your pictures to the web?

    I am currently using the Photobucket android app on my Desire.

    It automatically uploads pictures to my photobucket account but I find it buggy.

    Does anyone use a free app that they find reliable? (I don't mind what service it uploads to)

    I'm taking pictures of my college notes so I have digital copies but I want something reliable that can automatically handle bulk uploads.


    Thanks in advance for any advice.

    Have you tried the inbuilt share option for Picasa?
    Works perfectly for me but Ill admit I never really tried it with bulk uploads.Usually only 2 or 3 at a time

    I'm not sure if it is what you are looking for, but you could use Dropbox. According to this: https://www.dropbox.com/help/84
    you can use dropbox you automatically upload images taken on your mobile.

    If you are interested I can give you a referral link which gives us both an additional 250Mb free storage if you use it to sign up. I don't think I'm allowed to post it, but if you PM me I can send it to you.

    I ended up using the built in Picasa function which uploaded 270 pictures files to my gmail account without a hitch.

    Just the functionality I needed.

    Thanks very much for the good advice.

    It's *supposed* to upload automatically when you take a picture while Dropbox is open ... This has never worked for me, and Dropbox in general doesn't seem to work with Meteor.

    i'll have to have a look into it a bit more. the android page on the link above doesn't suggest automatic, while the iphone page does.

    I haven't actually tried using Dropbox myself. I just read about it I and thought it might solve OPs problem. However I think long_b might be right. Meteor seems to be blocking Dropbox :mad:.

    Dropbox won't automatically upload files from an android phone, manual all the way unless they change it sometime in the future. The photobucket looks like it will do the job, "Automatic media upload"

    Photobucket does do it, but not on Meteor.
