Google Drive stopped uploading to Google Photos on August 10, so I built a Mac app that offloads my camera cards and uploads with rclone

On August 10, Google turned off Google Photos backup in Google Drive for desktop , and there's no desktop Google Photos app to replace it. That was how my JPGs got from my Nikon Z 8's cards into Google Photos, and without it the rest of my routine (copying cards to the Mac and a backup drive by hand) was cumbersome. So I built Photo Offloader. You insert a card, and it: copies everything to the Mac and checks each copy with SHA-256, reread from the disk rather than memory mirrors the

痛点：Google Drive for desktop 于 8 月 10 日关闭了 Google Photos 备份功能，且没有桌面版 Google Photos 应用可替代，导致摄影师无法再用原来的流程把相机存储卡里的照片自动上传到云端。

目标用户：使用存储卡拍摄、依赖 Google Photos 做云端备份的摄影爱好者和半专业摄影师（Mac 用户）

证据：On August 10, Google turned off Google Photos backup in Google Drive for desktop, and there's no desktop Google Photos app to replace it. That was how my JPGs got from my Nikon Z 8's cards into Google Photos... Setting up Google Photos takes some effort (your own Google Cloud sign-in for rclone). It's optional, but it's part of the reason I built this

变现：Mac 应用一次性买断（15–30 美元）或按年订阅（约 20–40 美元/年），可加高级功能（多相机配置、多目标云端、校验报告导出）

MVP：检测存储卡插入 → 以 SHA-256 校验方式拷贝到本地磁盘，并从磁盘重新读取验证 → 可选镜像到 USB 盘 → 通过 rclone 把 JPG/视频上传到指定 Google Photos 相册，RAW 文件保留在本地 → 菜单栏显示进度与失败原因，并禁止写入或删除卡片

竞品：Hedge、ShotPut Pro、Photo Mechanic、Lightroom Classic 导入、ChronoSync、rclone 手动脚本

摘要：Google 在 8 月 10 日关掉了 Drive for desktop 中的 Google Photos 备份功能，作者因此自建了 Mac 应用 Photo Offloader：插入存储卡后进行 SHA-256 校验拷贝、可选镜像到 USB 盘、再用 rclone 把 JPG 和视频上传到 Google Photos 相册、RAW 文件保留在本地。作者坦言目前只有自己一个用户，尚未在其它相机上测试，也没有任何付费或收入数据。
