Usability: Unintentionally make duplicates of photos when accessing the "Photo Browser" #210

Open Gronis opened 6 years ago

Gronis commented 6 years ago

I'm suggesting a change in the GUI of the IOS seafile application.

The Problem

I've managed to unintentionally make duplicates of all my photos that exists in the "Camera Upload" folder.

The problem is that I frequently use the "Photo Browser" and it is located exactly next to the "Save all photos to album" button. If I unintentionally hit that button when browsing my "Camera Upload" folder, all photos are downloaded, and then automatically synched/uploaded again under new filenames. A screenshot can be seen here which captures the problem:

I'm not sure how to provide the "Photo Browser" in a better way, but I think it is a little bit too hidden in the GUI right now. The intention with this issue is to discuss how to improve the usability of the application by changing how the "Photo Browser" is accessed inside the application.

My suggestion is that “save all photos to album” has a confirm box. Alternatively, the “save all photos to album” is not shown if the folder is used for camera sync.

We will check the problem.
