Bug description
This is a simple case: I have quite some albums with photo's, there are all nicely shown on the map. When I share an album with another user user, they see the album (with Photo's, Memories) and can view the photo's. But the photo's are not shown on their map.
Steps to reproduce
1.Create album with photo's
2.Make sure the photo's are shown on your map
3.Share the album with another user.
4.Check the other user can actually view the the photo's in the album
5.Check the map
Expected behavior
The shared album should automatically be shown on the map.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the shared-album flow in the Maps app with the Photos and Memories apps enabled: create a geolocated photo album, share it with another user, and check that user's map. Done means the recipient can view the shared album's photos and those photos also appear on their map.
