Description

Expected behaviour

Uploading files should actually upload them.

Actual behaviour

Files just wait in queue as “Waiting to upload” or “In upload”, whatever that means. Can’t upload new files. Can’t manually start the uploads.

Research direction

No source files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by reproducing the upload queue behavior with iOS 13.2.3, app version 2.25.0, and a batch of photos saved from Photos to Files; done means queued files upload successfully and can be started manually.
