Description

Steps to reproduce
  1. Make Screenshot
  2. Make Photo
  3. Open Nextcloud App, Photo was synced, Screenshot not

Automatic photo backup works, but everything except screenshots. Strange bug that every video or photo is reliably uploaded automatically, but screenshots only when I explicitly open the app, otherwise never.

Environment data

iOS version: every

Nextcloud iOS app version: see More > Settings 5.4.1.0

Research direction

Start by reproducing automatic backup on iOS 5.4.1.0, comparing a photo or video with a screenshot when the app remains closed. Done means screenshots upload automatically under the same conditions without opening the Nextcloud app.
