Great photo library app. I wish it could read the metadata on all the photos to organize them by data. Nextcloud only does it when that are taken. This would be a good feature. When trying to change the date based on the metadata, you can be locked out from making those changes. I don't know if that's the fault of the app or Nextcloud. Either way, I'm still going to pay for this app.

Just purchased the paid version and as like the free version, I'm enjoying the app. One issue is the EXIF support. I understand it's not supported natively, but strange for me the process works fine for images, not videos. The file has the same naming convention, just has a .MP4 as the extension. I have to change them one by one. Hopefully this would be fixed in a future release.

Great for browsing, bad for sharing. The share option downloads the photo to pass onto whatever app you wish to use. It's a nice option, but I don't want to send a photo in a text that will end up compressed to oblivion. 90% of the time I'm sharing external links to people for them to access the full resolution image with the option to download. It is painfully slow to do that in the official Nextcloud app. Hands down would be 5 stars if I could create and share external links for photos.

Definitely worth the price. Only weirdness is there's no ability to just view images by folder? That seems like an odd oversight. I know it's possible to manually add collections, but I have lots of folders with just a few sequential images in each and I don't really want to go through the process of adding them individually; It would be nice to just add the parent and have the subfolders be separate. Dev seems active though so I don't doubt a PR could be made and approved.

Definitely a better image browsing/organization experience than what the official NextCloud app offers. The only issue encountered was sluggish updates/ACKs from the server after file operations (e.x. delay in file path update after a move). Something seems to be teribly inefficient with the individual & batch file-op handling; official app has this too. Would like to see integration with the NC App for utilizing its existing cache with the StorageAccessFramework. Maybe duplicate file ident?

Brilliant app. Works fine, the only problem is that it doesn't create the thumbnails for the videos. Definitely worh the money.
