Got new Z Fold 6

Replacing a Z Fold 3

Used Smart Switch with USB C to move everything 

It didn't move pictures in gallery and provided no error message. Already sent Z Fold 3 back to Samsung for $900 trade in. Lost all pictures after February 2024 with no recovery.

Why is their no software verification that everything moved and a time consuming manual effort

Oh nooo. That sucks, sorry to hear. Always manually check but your best bet is to sync them to the cloud. That way they upload everyday.

Sorry to hear that and definitely have been a victim of it myself. It has lead me to use a backup app. SmartSwitch is much better than it used to be but not perfect.
I highly recommend utilizing the Google Photos app which automatically uploads your pictures when you take them (if you allow cell data usage otherwise it only does it on WiFi).
OneDrive, Samsung Cloud, and Google Drive will also backup your phone and pictures.
