I've recently acquired a Fujifilm X-E2. I've installed the Fuji app and can successfully transfer the photos from the camera to my Pixel (Android) phone. Now I want them to automatically sync with Google photos so that I can view them on my iPad. However I don't seem to have an option within Google photos to select the Fuji folder. I get a choice of folders to sync and Fuji isn't one of them. By comparison when I installed Nikon Snapbridge I was immediately asked if I wanted to sync this folder.

Has anyone done this successfully?

So if you open your Camera remote folder in Photos you do not have Back up & sync bar with toggle on top?

Problem solved.  They were there all along, I just couldn't see them.  The issue was that the date in the camera (which I bought used yesterday) was set to 2016 so they were right down the bottom of my photo collection.

Your question alerted me to this because I noticed that although I couldn't find the photos from the X-E2, I could see photos from a previous Fujifilm I had so I knew something was working.
