Description
I will be adding more information to this once I get to a computer.
I open Nextcloud to start auto upload, then open a text I get, knowing full well the auto upload won't work in the background until I go back to the app, I go back to the app, and says something about loosing connection to the server, and to check server logs (will provide those soon). It offers to delete the photos/videos that were uploaded (I have that setting turned on) but totally ignores the ones still to be uploaded, as if they either don't exist, or have already been uploaded.
I had 6 videos to upload, 3 uploaded 3 did not. To get the last 3 to upload after the switching to another app and back again, I have to go into settings and turn off and on again the setting about uploading the whole camera roll.

Research direction
The issue names no source files, tests, or entry points. Start by reproducing the camera-roll auto-upload flow while switching to another app, then inspect the upload state after returning and review the server logs when available. Done means pending photos remain tracked and can resume uploading without toggling the camera-roll setting.
