QuMagie

This ain’t it. What possible sense is there to display a page full of microscopic random frames from each movie with total runtime displayed over each? No file names, no option to change the display. May as well just have a single button that says “make random selection”! Was this design ever reviewed by a person or was it just OK’d by AI? And this is supposed to replace Qvideo? Update- it gets infinitely worse. If you grow tired of qumagie using 100% of your nas cpu to the point it logs you out while it is trying to group faces and objects (doing a horrible job of both - though it does a fairly good job of saying your raw and jpeg versions of the same image are “similar”) and you decide to delete this abominable app from your nas, you will find that deleting qumagie also removes/invalidates your existing Qphoto and Qvideo databases, rendering those apps useless well before their official EOL. Photos and videos are still there - you just can’t access them with Qphoto or Qvideo. You have been warned. Probably should have been using a simple file manager in the first place…

I can’t comment on the features because I can’t get anything to upload. It constantly stops unless I’m actively staring it, and even then it stops. Network is good and so is WiFi connection on phone. Large videos stop for no apparent reason after finishing uploading. Pretty much useless at this point. UI is fine, if not dated as others have mentioned. Hope they get the uploads working soon.

As others have wrote, this is pretty typical of QNAP apps as for this recent release (1.1.0) it’s at least useable. It still has quite a few issues where I’ve already sent support tickets like any videos uploaded by an iPhone are iOS only and can’t be viewed by Android/Windows. No iOS Live Photo’s support, no iPad native/universal app, creating accounts for NAS users as an admin can cause confusing permissions issues when creating a NAS album, no ability to share from the mobile apps (have to create shares thru web UI). I’m sure I could go on but the basic functionality to at least upload your photos thru your phone and backup photos at least make this update at least more useable now. Gave this release 4 stars (really 3.5) as it’s more useable than some of QNAPs other mobile apps (Synology not a lot better either) but at least this app is still getting updates.
