Automatically save Images to Gallery

Open samuel-p opened this issue 4 years ago • 7 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I did not find an option to save all received images directly to the gallery, so a user has to save every image manually to see it in the gallery.

Describe the solution you'd like It would be nice if there is a global opt in setting, to save all received images automatically to the gallery.

Describe alternatives you've considered Additionally it would be nice to have the option for each room to save all received images automatically to the gallery, so the user can activate this feature only for some rooms.

Or at least if there are 5 pics in one message - it would be nice to a download button that says - Download all images.

It seems like you guys figured out how to save one picture at a time to the gallery, how do you do that?

@chagai95 there's an arrow button in the upper right corner when viewing an image

When taking pictures from within the app, the inage isn't saved either. This in addition to removed exif data eliminates that you can use the in app camera feature

Gee, is this still not possible? Did not find this anywhere, neither in Element for web nor for Android

This is still not possible? This application would be perfect if we could have this option.
