Upload photos as they are taken

[Mustachio]

I want an app to upload my photos to the Web as soon as the photo is saved to the SD card, without my having to respond to any prompts. An option to paste the URL for each uploaded pic to an IRC channel would be a big plus.

I know I can upload them if view the thumbnails, click the Share button, and then click a bunch more buttons to tell the phone where to upload the pic to, but I don't want to make ANY keypresses beyond the initial press to snap the camera shutter.

Any suggestions?

You want a software version of the Eye-Fi card. I would pay $10-$15 for that app.

If one of the camera apps lets you set the directory the photos will be saved in. You can use DropBox to automatically sync the DropBox photos folder with it's online picture gallery.

The default camera app saves under the DCIM folder, so if I could set DropBox to that, it might work. I'll give it a shot. Thanks!

Dropbox on Android does not have auto folder watch/sync, I believe.

I believe you guys are looking for this app:

PicPush

PicPush | 350 Nice

it works for me with the Picasa account.

Photobucket also automatically uploads your pics.

yupp ^^ Photobucket has the ability to do this. Im going to look into the picpush though

One thing I like about DropBox is that you can run it, click New > Picture, click the camera shutter, then click Done to upload it. That's close to what I was wanting...but I'll check out Photobucket and PicPush too.

There is an application called itookthisonmyphone. This app uploads all snapped photos to specified web albums like Picasa, Butterfly, Photobucket, Facebook, Twitter, etc. It also has a setting that deleted the photos from your phone as soon as it is uploaded to prevent clutter in your device.

Photobucket's app works just like DropBox...you press the shutter button then you're presented with a "try again" button and a Done button. I like DropBox better tho because you can use DB with non-image files too.

However, for the Eye-Fi emulation, it looks like PicPush is the winner. It does everything I requested in the original post, plus it's free.

I think photowall does what you're asking.

"With one button, your photo is posted to photowall.com and then sent to Facebook, Flickr or your Twitter stream."

5 bucks seems a bit much but it does work well

Thanks for the PhotoBucket tip - it automatically uploads pictures!

are you serious?
$5, i'm 49 with kids. i don't tell lies. if i keep and use an app $5 is peanuts to pay

 

[kcpowercat]

Do you also drive a dodge stratus? I'm important.

Just saying relative to other app prices for what it does, 5 seems a bit high.
