[Feature Request] Import/Export as Zip File #99

Open MrCamel999 opened 1 week ago

MrCamel999 commented 1 week ago

Currently when exporting photos (as I do when I make a backup for Daily You), the photos show up as recent photos added to my device when viewing photos to send in messaging apps. The system is correct that all of those photos are the most recent ones added to my device, but it's a bit annoying.

Would it be possible to implement a system where exports and imports of photos are done through a zipped file? Doesn't have to necessarily be a zip file, I'm good with zip, tar.gz, 7z, whatever works. Would be cool to have the zip also include the json log of the text entries with the ratings of the day, so I could theoretically just export one file and backup just that one file.

Not a necessary addition, but would greatly improve ease of use of the app in my opinion.

The recent images annoy me too. I went down a rabbit hole about this previously and decided that it would be difficult to perserve the creation time stamp on the android file system. That said, the zip idea is a clever work around that also allows for bundling the json file like you said. I'll look into this, thanks!
