Stop repeating the same pictures when there are new ones to show
Hi Sabrina, thanks for opening up this issue. I just wanted to get some more details about what you are experiencing. Is this a bug or a feature request? Are pictures repeating as you scroll through the list or are you talking about the same photos being shown between sessions on the same day?
Hi,
I'm using resplash as a wallpaper changer on my pixel 7 pro. I use collections with a lot of photos to randomly pick from but I keep seeing the samen pictures on my background. Like the algorithm keeps forgetting that some have already been used.
Does this clarify it?

@sabbbi Yes, thanks for the clarification! One possible explanation for this is using multiple collections but having one with fewer images. This can skew the randomness because first a random collection is selected, then a random photo is selected from that collection. So if you have 2 collections selected for auto wallpaper and one has 5 photos and the other has 100, you are much more likely to see a photo from the collection with 5 photos. Let me know if this sounds like your situation.
