Description
Steps to reproduce
- Navigate to one level above the directory in which the photos you wish to save reside
- Click "Select" in the upper-right
- Select the directory whose photos you wish to save
- Tap "..." in the upper-right
- Tap "Save to photo gallery"
Expected behaviour
All photos in the directory should be saved to your iPhone's photo gallery, like when you click "Save to photo gallery" with a single photo.
Actual behaviour
Nothing happens.
Logs
If applicable, you can post the iOS app or server logs (removing any sensitive information).
The log is too big to ensure I do not post sensitive information. Sorry.
Reasoning or why should it be changed/implemented?
So people can batch download their photos.

Research direction
No source file or test is identified in the issue. Start by reproducing the folder-based “Save to photo gallery” flow on the iOS app, then trace the existing single-photo save path and determine where directory selection stops being handled. Done means all photos in a selected directory are saved to the iPhone photo gallery without affecting single-photo saving.
