Feature request

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently, the „Remove from camera roll“ feature removes the images immediately. However, I would like to keep them in the camera roll for a certain time period (e.g. one month, three months, one year).

Describe the solution you'd like
An option to select the time period between the upload and the deletion of the images that have been uploaded.

Describe alternatives you've considered
