Auto-upload photos and videos from mobile devices
Configure unlimited auto-upload of media files to Yandex Disk if you take a lot of photos and videos with your phone or tablet. This way your photos won't be lost even if something happens to your phone or tablet.
With unlimited auto-uploads enabled, photos and videos don't use up space on your Yandex Disk. They are available on the service page and in the mobile app, under Photos. However, RAW photos in DNG
format are an exception: they upload to the Camera folder and use up Yandex Disk space.
Note
Unlimited photo and video auto-uploads are only available with a Yandex 360 plan.

Which folder will my photos and videos be in?
Once auto-uploaded to unlimited storage, media files appear in the Photo and Feed sections. Photos and videos uploaded to unlimited storage won't sync with the computer program. However, RAW photos in DNG
format are an exception: they upload to the Camera folder.
If you want to sync photos and videos with your computer:
- Open the Photos section and copy photos to the desired folder on Yandex Disk.
- Download photos and videos to your computer using the Yandex Disk 3.0 desktop application (see instructions for Windows, macOS).
- Disable unlimited auto-uploads: photos and videos will be uploaded to the Camera folder and use up space on Yandex Disk. To learn more about auto-uploading to the Camera folder, read this article.
