The reason is that for the longest time, I considered it as something that I was “trying out” and I was trying to work out how it would fit into my workflow. Over that time, it’s quietly absorbed itself into my way of working, and now I consider it an essential tool. If you’ve never heard of Mylio, then let me explain just what it is and how I use it. At its core it’s a photo workflow application, somewhat like Lightroom and Apple’s Photos. Where it differs is the way it works across networks and devices. Mylio allows you to create a library and then sync that across multiple computers and devices. What’s clever about the system is that, although it comes with a cloud component, images are synced directly between devices. If you create an album on one device, it will be added to the others, and so on.
You can import images on different devices and they will all sync and become part of the one library.

The software also gives you granular control over the syncing process, and you can decide whether a device has thumbnails, previews or originals. You can decide this on a per album, per folder, or even per image basis. Mylio also has a clever way of protecting your images.
It will make sure that your originals are on at least two devices (including the cloud) and then warn you if there are items that aren’t protected. That way if you loose your computer’s hard drive for example, you can rebuild the library by taking the originals from other devices. It also has it’s own cloud service, and recently they added the ability to add Amazon cloud drive as a back up device too. There’s a lot of other functionality to the software too, as well as a few limitations, and this is by no means an attempt at a review of the software. It has basic editing tools and can convert Raw files, although in my opinion the quality of the conversion isn’t great and it’s lacking some key features. It has a fast and wide ranging search feature, but that too lacks some key abilities, including the ability to search through exif metadata, and it lacks the ability to create smart folders. Having said that, the developers are aggressively developing it, and new features are constantly being added. The biggest downside, and what would probably put a lot of people off it is the cost.
It’s a subscription based service, with several tiers based on the number of images that you have and the number of devices you want to connect. This will probably put some people off, as many are opposed to the idea of a subscription for software, but that does include the syncing and cloud side in the cost. I don’t really use the image editing features of Mylio. Instead I’ve started using as a sort of Master Library.
