Building an e-ink picture frame that displays an iCloud photo album
> They don't offer an appropriate API to get photos out.
There's this: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/photokit "The framework provides access to photos on the person’s device and in iCloud."
If you want to use undocumented APIs on non-Apple devices directly, there are projects like https://github.com/steilerDev/icloud-photos-sync and https://github.com/icloud-photos-downloader/icloud_photos_do... that appear to be able to do this.
- I have an extra pi4 I’m mailing to my parents to create a cloud drive for their home since they’re privacy sensitive. What’s the easiest way to make the pi read/writeable from their iPhones at home?

Self-hosted photo and video backup solution directly from your mobile phone
I use https://github.com/icloud-photos-downloader/icloud_photos_do... running on my NAS to regularly download photos from my wife's iCloud account. The photos are stored in full resolution on iCloud with the EXIF data, unlike Google Photos, so that's nice. The only annoyance is that you need to reauthorize the tool every three months. But it sends you a reminder when the time is coming up.

Rclone syncs your files to cloud storage
Sadly, it’s not configurable. It’s just an inherent limitation of the API (1). Takeout is the best alternative, but for something more realtime you can use tools (2) that wrap the browser UI which also exports full quality.

A way to auto send from google photo to photoprism?
What I did was a very painful process of using Google Takeout and gphotos-sync ( https://github.com/gilesknap/gphotos-sync ), manually merging what I knew was missing, and using file counts by month/year to track other missing objects. gphotos-sync is limited by the same API issues as rclone, which is another perfectly fine utility to use, besides the API limitations. On a side note, I use rclone to backup everything to "storj" every night ( delta sync ).
