Make option "Safe Live Photo to photo album" also available in selection menu
Expected behaviour
The expected (desired) behaviour is that I can upload Live Images as backup to nextcloud and be able to 100% restore them in my iOS Photo Roll.
Actual behaviour
In theory it works, but I have to manual select each image go into its menu and select "Safe Live Photo to photo album" instead of being able to this in the selection menu. When restoring 1000 of images this is a very tedious task. Every image has to be individually picked.
Alternative options "Download files and Folders" as well as "Save images and videos to photo album..." do not result in the same behaviour.
The problem here is:
- The correct time stamp is not recovered. Meaning the new image appears in the photo roll as if it was taken right now.
- The Live effect is not restored.
Selection Menu
Single Live Photo menu
Reasoning or why should it be changed/implemented?
Finally (Thank you to the devs) we would have a flawless method to backup and restore iOS images without using Apple Photos on a Mac or iCloud.
iOS version
13.5.1
App version
3.0.0.76
Server configuration
Nextcloud version: (see Nextcloud admin page) 19.0.0
I want to use this opportunity to thank all involved in this refreshed app. It looks very clean. Thank you for all that work!
I would also like to have this implemented and was kind of surprised to find out that it isn't yet, as the underlying function to save a live photo to the photo gallery seems to work.
I'm trying to replicate my photos from my iPhone with a yet hypothetical iPad and as far as I can tell there is no good way to do this. Implementing the save as live photo to photos for multiple files and folders could potentially solve this problem.
Is there some plan to do this @marinofaggiana ?
