Description

Hello,

Ente's free up space feature will delete photos that were not backed up to your Ente account, if the photo is present in a shared album that you do not own.

This is problematic as it will skip backing up that photo, and you effectively lose that photo if the original owner removes themself from the shared album.

To replicate the issue:

  1. Have someone share an album with you with photos.
  2. Download a photo to your Camera Album
  3. Ente will never automatically back up this photo to your Camera gallery album.
  4. Run 'Free up space'. This photo will get deleted from your device.
  5. Proceed to have the original photo owner leave the album, you lose access to a photo that should have been backed up by Ente to your Camera album.
