[Feature] Create album when moving photos

[pabloscloud]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I'm always frustrated when I selected a bunch of photos and click on move and notice, I forgot to create the album first.

Describe the solution you'd like Instead of only showing existent albums, show a field where the name of a new album can be entered.

Additional context I tried to open a new tab in the browser too and created an album, but that album won’t show up in the other tab, so it needs to be refreshed and the selection is gone.

Hi there! 👋🏻

Thanks a lot for filing this!

Funnily enough we used to have this feature about a year ago, and decided to remove it because it was originally implemented in a very confusing way. It's been on our to-do list ever since, and we hope to have this functionality rolled out quite soon.

I'll leave this issue open until we have it ready, link to it with the release, and close once released so you can get a notification once it's out and about 🎉

Many thanks for bringing this up again, it helps us prioritize features like this greatly!

Stay tuned!

Best,

J

Cool! Didn't use Cryptee back then so I didn't even know this ever existed o.O

Found an old screenshot from #40 Here's how it used to look like :

All in all the move / create flow was quite messy. (not to mention our now-ancient-looking design hahaha) 😅

We'll have something much better soon! 👍🏻
