Automatically move files from "camera uploads" to other folders

Hello everyone, I have 4 people in my family that constantly take pictures. I have an iCloud + account so that I can make backups of all our iPhones and iPads. Problem is that it is out of storage ...

Welcome to the Community, Dante1_66! 

 

Unfortunately, as you also mentioned, it’s not possible to do this automatically; since all photos/videos will be uploaded in bulk within the “camera uploads” folder, you’ll need to manually transfer them to another folder/organize them after that. 

 

If you need something else though, I'll be happy to help.

How about using an automation that moves files from Camera Uploads to specific folders I set in the automation?
