[Mobile App] Android Share To Metadata #7527

Open kflinderman opened 2 months ago

kflinderman commented 2 months ago

The bug

When I select anything to share to another app in the Android app, it seems as though Immich uploads a newly created image. Basically, the metadata date is now the current date.

For example, when I'm trying to share a photo to one of my children photo sharing apps, it will say all the photos were taking today as opposed to the actual date taken.

The OS that Immich Server is running on

Linux (Unraid)

Version of Immich Server

v1.97.0

Version of Immich Mobile App

v1.97.0 build.125

Platform with the issue

Your docker-compose.yml content

N/A

Your .env content

N/A

Reproduction steps

1. Select one or multiple photos in the app
2. Select "Share to"
3. Pick an app from the list
4. Share and check the date associated with the photo

I don't think Immich is to blame. I've checked few apps, it depends how the app processes an image. E.g. most of messengers shrinks an image and removes metadata. Please try to share an image with another app, e.g. mailing app.

I guess this comes from using Google Photos for so long. It's able to share the photo with the correct dates.

You are right though, in email it keeps it's date taken, but the date created is today. I just wonder why it works for Google Photos for these other apps and not for Immich...
