Apparently, this issue doesn't appear consistently. In some cases, it is uploaded to the right folder. Which makes it even worse, because it happens unexpectedly

And I just experienced the case: after I moved an already uploaded picture on the nextcloud server to another folder (different storage), the nextcloud Android App uploaded the pictures again into the wrong folder (where the moved pictures had been uploaded before)

At least there seems to be a correlation: if there are pictures to be updated in the folder which is mentioned first in the auto-upload settings, the probability is higher for other pictures to end there as well (it is the wrong foldelr for them)

I see the same bug on a Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra SM-S918B/DS with Samsung stock Android 13:

I have configured that /storage/emulated/0/DCIM/Camera is uploaded to /Photos/ using sub folders. A picture that is uploaded via AutoUpload is stored in /Photos/2023/07/ and /Photos/2023/07/Camera/

Nextcloud App has version 3.25.0. Nextcloud server runs Nextcloud Hub 3 (25.0.9).

Does someone know, if this bug will be fixed with priority or is the multi account functionality too rare as an uscase and resources are directed elsewhere. If so, I would consider a different backup system for my photos on my phone (google drive or similar). I realy love my Nextcloud system at work and my private one, however I can not use the autoupload anymore, it already pump GB of my private pictures to the company cloud where they are now stored in their back ups probably forever :/

There is no priority assigned, another issue most likely related didn't get attention after asking for priority yet: https://github.com/nextcloud/android/issues/11645 Probably there are too less devs or too many issues

Looks like this is the same problem that I experienced as well. See the screenshot: Screenshot_20240212-144359

You see that the same picture is uploaded to two different paths. I also had configured more than one local path. Then (while writing these lines) I realized that I had configured both /DCIM and /DCIM/Camera. After deactivating the rule for the DCIM folder it now seems to work.
