Me and a buddy just set up syncthing and use that when we need to do this and don't want in third parties involved. Turn it off when you are done.

    I use resilio sync across my work and personal phones and I use it to backup my phones to my nas. No need to turn it on/off, it's accessible only via secret key or shared link and it's encrypted.

    I know sync isn't foss but it's the best one I've found over the years and it just works.

    It's a bit more consumer focused, easier for Grandma kind of thing. Syncthing isn't hard, but does have in my opinion a bit more difficult of an initial setup with features like introducers that can make things difficult if configured wrong.
