The feature
Current Behavior
When uploading multiple photos to Immich, there's no option to directly add them to an album during or immediately after the upload process. Currently, users must:
This is especially cumbersome when uploading a large batch of photos a wider date-range
Desired Behavior
After completing an upload of multiple photos, Immich would prompt the user with a dialog asking if they would like to add these recently uploaded photos to an album. This dialog would offer options to:
Alternatively, a "Recently Uploaded" smart collection could be implemented that automatically collects recent uploads for easy organization.
Why This Matters
This feature would significantly streamline the workflow for users who frequently organize photos into albums, reducing the number of steps required after upload. Google Photos offers a similar feature where it prompts users after upload to place photos into an album, making the transition between uploading and organizing much more efficient.
Additional Context
I'm a paid Immich user who's migrated from Google Photos. This workflow improvement would make a meaningful difference in the usability of Immich for organizing events and sharing collections.
