Feature detail

When uploading many photos which are already sorted into albums locally, it would be nice to have those albums copied to the server so that the photos don't have to be sorted again.

Platform

Mobile App

This can be reword as backup and preserve album info from mobile device

I'm not sure how easy this would be to do, might be possible on iOS, but on android the amount of different gallery and camera apps might make this problem far too vast.

Well, on Android, you select albums for backup and those albums should be preserved

Great feature, but not only in mobile device, if this function would be available in combination with Ticket #34 this would be great!

[mind-overflow]

definitely a +1 for this.

it's super useful if e.g. you want to upload both camera pictures and generally less important media that gets sent in group chats, but you don't want the camera roll to get all mixed up with those images.
it's currently impossible because even if you manually add all the uploaded pictures to the "camera roll" album, every time you take a new one you have to manually add it and that just gets tiring imho.
