Description

There is several issues about albums and synchronisation here, but i don't think this feature is mentionned.

I have a lot of photos on my phone, all classed by albums. I would like to save them (the photos) on nextcloud, but doing this, i loose all my classification (my albums). Is there a way to sync the albums too ? Like an option when you clik on the button "download all photos of the device"

It could help me to sync my photos and help the transition of all my family that is on the same situation ^^

Research direction

The issue names the “download all photos of the device” button as the entry point, but mentions no files or tests. Start by tracing that flow and how device albums are represented, then clarify the synchronization behavior and acceptance criteria with maintainers. Done means the requested photos retain their album classification in Nextcloud.
