Syncthing or Resilio Sync for regular, instant, no-fuss between devices you control.
I use Syncthing-Fork in my phone (has more flexible sybc conditions) to keep specific folders in sync.
I use Resilio Sync on my file server just for the Selective Sync feature, which enables me to easily grab any file from the server from anywhere.
Quick but not instant. Did bite me yesterday when my password database didn't update on my mobile before i left home.
Technically no, not instant, but very close if you setup a sync job to be more sensitive.
The desktop client (Linux/Windows) has a lot more flexibility with scanning. Not much you can set in the Android client, even with ST-Fork.
For anything I absolutely need to be on my phone, I permit it to sync over cell, like a password DB. Plus that's tiny. Like any photos I take sync instantly - it's worth the data cost from a backup perspective. But local backups by Neodroid only sync on WiFi and when charging.
Fortunately ST-Fork lets you set this in the individual folders.
