Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Sometimes I am connected with a slow wifi connection so I had to disable OC running in background otherwise after connecting to the network it starts to sync photos. While syncing, the network is impossible to use.
Describe the solution you'd like
It would be helpful for me to completely disable "running in background" (for example with checkbox in settings tab) and add button "sync now" to the upload tab.
Additional context
Currently, it is not very user-friendly for me. When I disabled running in background and I want to sync my photos, I have to wait some time with display on to start syncing. A simple button would help me.
TASKS
- Add checkbox "running in background" to the settings tab
- Add button "Sync now" to the upload tab (show only when running in background is disabled)

Research direction
Start in the Android app's settings tab and upload tab, tracing the existing background-upload setting and the path that starts photo synchronization. Done means users can disable background running, see a "Sync now" button only when it is disabled, and use it to start photo syncing.
