Feature request

I want to keep images and videos on the iPhone for some days to easily show and send them to other people. Doesn't actually make much sense to download them again for that. Still, I also want to use the auto-upload feature and delete the successfully uploaded image and video files. Currently I am hasitant to open the iOS Nextcloud app, because it will delete media files that I still wanted to use on the phone.

The solution I am thinking of is to add a new setting next to the auto-upload only new fotos/videos switch. It could be named Days before upload or similar.

As an alternative, my problem would also be solved if the upload does not happen automatically, but only when triggered manually. But that is a bit strange to have a manually triggered auto-upload.

The issue names no files or tests; start by locating the iOS auto-upload settings and the code path that deletes successfully uploaded photos and videos. Compare the existing “auto-upload only new photos/videos” setting with the requested upload delay, and consider completion to mean delayed uploads while preserving successful-upload deletion.
