Photos 'ghost download' - Don't really download, but appear to from the app #169

Ive got some odd issues with downloading photos from the app. I am the Admin of my site, and have no problem downloading photos from the web page when visited - either on mobile, or at a desktop. However, whenever I try to save a photo from the app, it appears to have saved while browsing folders from inside the app, but has not actually been saved to the device.

To Replicate, I just need to:

  1. Download an Image

  1. Select the place to save the image (Note the recently downloaded photos - all done via the piwigo app)

  1. Look in the folder they were saved to, only for them to not be there

You can see in step 2, I have multiple photos saved from 6:15, 7:52, and two more photos earlier in the evening, but when I navigate to the same folder in my gallery or file explorer app (shown in picture 3), none of the photos actually exist in the folder. Im not sure what is causing them to not show in the folder but show up in the place to browse which folder to use when downloading photos, but Im happy to provide any more info you may need.

See downloaded-images-not-showing-in-phones-gallery-flutter.

I think the problem is that, you aren't telling the OS about new image or video, for this you need to use Android Intent or use this plugin https://pub.dev/packages/image_gallery_saver, it will update the media files every time you save your file using this plugin

I have implemented this for next release.

I'm on piwigong 2.2.3 , but I wonder why download/share photo works on my Android 10 device and does NOT work on my Android 14 device. Permissions were granted.

An android or an app issue? On A14 I get the popup delete photo failed after starting the download.
