Allows other apps to share one or more photos to Aves
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Sometimes I find photos in other apps and I want to tag them in Aves but at the moment, I have to manually find the photos in Aves and then tag them which is not always easy.
Describe the solution you'd like Let's say I find a bunch of photos from another gallery (an example might be incorrect dates and times) but that gallery can't tag or edit metadata. I would like to share these photos with Aves such that I can tag them quickly in Aves. Another example could be correcting GPS locations.
Describe alternatives you've considered I have not been able to find any other way to quickly share photos to Aves.
Do you expect to see them in the Collection page, or scrollable one by one in the full screen viewer?
They would need to be a collection such that you could select them all or multi select them. Then you could perform a batch operation on them. From the collection you could go to full screen and scroll through them. Swiping back would take you back to the collection.

One thing to bear in mind: some apps share images via a custom content provider and in that case the receiving app cannot edit the items, because it does not have the standard uri/path to access them.
If you share a single image to Aves, and see in the item Info page that the URI is something like content://media/external/... it's all good. Otherwise it means the sending app uses a custom content provider.
Well you can only work with what you have. My main use is sharing photos from Google Gallery, which does local face tagging, so I could utilise the face tag data by sharing with Aves. Also both Google Gallery and Photos allow you to mark photos as a favourite but unfortunately it seems to be a propriety tag/favourite and thus not accessible from other apps.

It may be easier to implement this feature if the from-other-app-selected-images that aves receives are treated the same way as they where multiselected inside aves.
Example usecase: Add geo-coordinates to holiday photos:
- Find fotos without geo-info in the other app
- Select those photos that have roughly the same location (i.e. photos of my holidy hotel)
- "send" them to aves
- in aves batch-setGeo (either from a hotel-photo that has geo data or else via picking a location from the map).
If i also want to tag the selected with the keyword "hotel" i can send them again form the external app.
Yeah that makes sense in that once you get them into Aves you could add a tag to get them from Aves again easily for whatever is needed.

Another interesting use case: transfer items to the Secure Folder on Samsung devices. After sharing multiple items to Aves installed in the secure space, items could be copied to the secure storage.
