Expected behaviour

I've never seen this working on any version

Actual behaviour

First few (like 7) Files get uploaded, then the upload queue stuck.

Research direction

The reported entry point is the iOS “Save to Files” flow; begin by reproducing the upload queue with more than seven photos on the stated app and server setup. Trace where queued uploads stop, and consider the issue done when all selected files reach MyFolder reliably.
