I use the camera upload feature on my iOS devices to keep mobile/table pictures in sync with my PMS. I would like to see an option to sync deletes as well, which is how true synchronizations should work. For example, when I delete a picture from my camera roll the picture should also get deleted from my Plex Photos library. It would be nice to have this as an option to enable and disable to accommodate user preferences.

Agreed! I think Google Photos does this. I get so many pics from photos my kids take, it would be nice to just delete them once.

Another idea, uploaded photos that are deleted from the camera roll could be moved to a recently deleted folder.
