Media Folder only fetches from folders previously accessed within nextcloud #1914

Steps to reproduce

  1. Add new folders of photos to nextcloud within the media directly specified on the iOS app.
  2. Check yout media folder, nothing has changed
  3. Acces the newly added folders on your iOS device
  4. AFter the photos loaded once within the folder, they will now be visible in 'media'

Expected behaviour

The app should scour all the sub folders in the media directly in the background and populate the media folder without them having to be accessed manually.

Actual behaviour

I have to open every folder once at a time, wait for the photos to load from the serverm and then finally they are added to the media view.

Reasoning or why should it be changed/implemented?

In my case I have my photos seperated into around 300 folders. Opening them all so they appear in the media gallery is a big job.

Hi,
Same here. even with the files App on iOS you first have to access the nextcloud app and the specific folder to see the files in filesApp. Even worse is that (depending what iPhone (12 pro Max that is sufficient) but for iPhone12 Pro) there is also the need to swipe down manually to start loading the folder content (force server connection)!. after that finally all the files load in the NextCloud iOS App and are also available in the iOS native files.App.

by the way: it seems as if a folder is marked as favorite in iOS native Files.App there are even more problems of fetchling folders from nextcloud server and their contents/files. it seems as if a folder consists more the 300 subfolders even the Nextcloud App dont fechtes the content of those subfolders! it seems marking folder als favorite within the nextcloudApp seems also to harm the entire process of fetching folders/files from the server
