The bug

When trying to select a range of images by pressing the Shift key while selecting an item, it doesn't work and only one image is selected.

From a quick test, this behavior seems to affect the following places:

  • Person's photos
  • Place's photos on the explore tab
  • Recently added, Videos and Motion Photos (under Your Activity and Categories on explore tab)
  • Favorites
  • Albums
  • Archive
  • Search

Shift selection on timeline view works fine.

Another case where Shift+Click fails is in the photo timeline when you attempt to select photos spanning multiple days. You can only shift+click within a given day on the timeline.

Could you please give an example? I do not see this behaviour.

It's not working for me now on the main page.. 1.22.2, Firefox. It was working for me on the search page though.
