Description
Since updating to version 6.6.0 (April 4, 2025), the iOS app no longer detects and uploads new photos automatically. This used to work flawlessly.
🔍 Reproduction Steps
Enable Auto Upload (default setup, full photo access)
Use default Camera Roll (no album filtering)
Tap “Upload All” → all existing photos are uploaded ✅
Take a new photo → it never uploads ❌
No errors in app logs, no uploads triggered
Tried uninstalling the app and starting from scratch. Same issues.
Tried on 3 devices.
✅ Confirmed Working
App has full access to all photos
WebDAV, reverse proxy (HAProxy), and server permissions are fine
Upload of 1000+ existing photos worked
Manual upload from photo library works
Immich and other apps detect and sync new photos on same devices
❌ Broken Behavior
New photos are not detected or queued for upload after 6.6.0
No upload attempts reach the server (verified via logs)
Seems directly tied to the new album-based auto upload feature
Possibly an issue with default album behavior when no selection is made
