A timeline view to be available alongside the existing view types. In time line view, photos are ordered by EXIF metadata (#221), if that is missing they are sorted by created date, and then modified date. The User see photos in chronological order, most recent at the top. There is a slider bar which the user can move slowly to move between days, more quickly to move between months, and on continued moving can move between years. As is available in most modern photo gallery viewing applications.

Could you add the content of this post as a comment to https://github.com/owncloud/gallery/issues/95 ? This is the same request, just more detailed.

any update on this topic? It is really disappointing, when you have a folder with content from over 5 y and want to fast navigate to the a special year / date....

Hello, do we have some news here?

According to https://nextcloud.com/blog/the-new-standard-in-on-premises-team-collaboration-nextcloud-hub/ "Photos shows you a timeline of your photos. "

So I guess your assumptions of what this means do not match those of the nextcloud devs.

I would agree though that a timeline view needs a virtual structure of year, month (and day) in order to jump to a date in that timeline without having to scroll through all the previews.

Not sure though how the app should handle photos without any meta information about their creation date. If I remember correctly most other apps use the file's date in those cases.

Sorting ascending or descending is also still missing as of 18.0.3.
