Hey guys, Im looking for solution to change default save path from /DCIM/Camera to another folder (that syncs with selfhosted cloud). I tried 2 versions of gcam, opencamera and few apps from play store, but cant find a way how to change save path. I also want to use non google galery, enjoying simple galery pro atm.

I have motorola moto g42 with stock OS and no root. Thx

I am using nextcloud, but I guess I dont have good setup I have tried that and its working, but if I delete picture in nextcloud folder its automatically added again. I have to delete picture in gallery first, then delete in nextcloud folder. Thats why I have set nextcloud to move files to app folder, but seems like my camera app can point only to DCIM folder so I cant open new gallery folder from camera.

Im just trying to find a way how to delete unwanted photos before daily backup at 4 AM. Sometimes I take 100 photos in a day and then I want to delete some when I get home so they dont use my cloud storage, same with backup storage. Is that not possible? Should I use your method and just keep everything in nextcloud? I feel like Im doing everything wrong and missing something important
