Nextcloud alternative with iOS app for auto photo upload? (alien.top)

I am using Nextcloud and along with the iOS app, I can automatically upload my iPhone photos as I enter my WiFi but boy, is Nextcloud finicky.

Is there a reliable alternative with an iOS app?

Very weird you have this issue on IOS. I have 4 IPhones that auto uploads without issue on different IOS versions. Is your server instance updated? I found that if nextcloud is outdated but the phone app is on latest version will have some issues.

I don’t have any issues with the upload function itself, it’s mainly how every update nearly breaks something. Plus I am using external storage (NAS) instead of a local drive.
