Sushitrain is an open-source iOS and macOS app that brings Syncthing-based secure file synchronization to Apple devices, built with a Go core and Swift front-end. It supports selective sync, on-demand streaming of remote files, photo backup, and deep iOS/macOS integration like Shortcuts and background sync.

Use cases

  • sync files between my iphone and other devices using syncthing
  • access files from my home computer on ios without a vpn
  • selectively sync only some folders from a large syncthing share
  • automatically back up iphone photos to my syncthing folders
  • stream files that aren't stored locally from another peer
  • synchronize photo albums as send-only folders

When to choose

  • you use Syncthing and want native iOS/macOS access to your synced folders
  • you want on-demand access to files stored on your own devices without a VPN
  • you need automatic photo backup from iOS into Syncthing folders
  • you prefer an open-source, self-hosted sync solution over cloud storage

When to avoid

  • you need full continuous background sync, which iOS limits for any app
  • you don't use Syncthing and just want simple cloud file sync
  • you need a Windows, Linux, or Android client (use official Syncthing instead)
  • you want a turnkey service rather than managing your own peers
