Ratings and reviews

Better than photoprism for people who have normy families and want everyone to use the same service. The app itself is almost a 1:1 clone of google photos. Still missing a few housekeeping features like deleting backed up photos from the device but I don't use that anyway. The service has excellent face recognition and pretty good tagging from what I can see. Breakneck speeds of development are also a plus. This might actually be able to get my mom's years of disparate photos together.

Works pretty well, but for whatever reason the latest server update seems to break the Android app. After the backup is complete, and I delete the photo off of my phone, the image can't be viewed on Android anymore. It shows up on my server when accessing it through the web browser, but it just won't appear on my phone. Only way to fix it seems to be to uninstall the application and reinstall it, but the problem just comes up again when the same actions are taken. Didn't do this before.

What a brilliant project. One thing I noticed is that when you are using the Search function, you can't multi-slecet photos. I sometimes want to delete pictures via search but doesn't seem feasible at the moment. Also, would it be possible to add a delete function when you are viewing a picture? Thanks for the amazing project.
