The bug
Thank you for developing this wonderful app! In anticipation of doing a CLI upload of a large library of 10k pictures downloaded from iCloud, I uploaded a few test images using the browser and came across a date / time issue that I don't see reported yet. An image with a timestamp from the evening posts in the timeline as having been taken on the following day even though the metadata listed in the image view is correct. I believe this is related to a timezone / UTC issue, and I tried to replicated this on the demo server, but when I uploaded the image there, it posts on the correct date but the metadata lists the incorrect time for the image.
You can see this demonstrated in the images below. Here are three images, the first one was actually taken the day before and the following two were taken on the dates listed.

You can see the correct time and date for each image on the metadata listed in the image view on the next three screenshots.



I believe that if the last image had been taken after 7pm, it would have been placed on the following date in the timeline similar to the way the first image was handled.
As mentioned above, the demo server doesn't replicate this exactly, but the metadata represented there isn't correct either (maybe because I have the TZ environment variable set to US/Central in my .env file and the demo server is using UTC?). Anyway, here's how it looks on the demo server:
The OS that Immich Server is running on
Ubuntu 22.04
Version of Immich Server
v1.88.2
Version of Immich Mobile App
v1.88.0
Platform with the issue
Your docker-compose.yml content
Your .env content
Reproduction steps
Additional information
I should say also that I refreshed the metadata for the miscategorized image, and it didn't change anything.
@spmdgit commented on GitHub (Nov 30, 2023):
Update: I didn’t check the iOS app before to see if the behaviour was the same as the web interface, but I checked it this afternoon, and, to my surprise, the pictures are all listed in the correct location.


Not sure if that helps or creates more confusion.
@Tyree commented on GitHub (Nov 30, 2023):
Mine is the opposite. Images shown on the correct date (Nov 18) on the web app, but on the Android app, it's spread out from Nov 4-18
@davidrudlstorfer commented on GitHub (Dec 1, 2023):
I observe the same phenomenon as @Tyree. Assets appear correctly within the timeline on the web app but incorrectly in the iOS app.
@Tyree commented on GitHub (Dec 2, 2023):
Here's an example of my issue. Took these screenshots on my phone today. Info on the photos is correct, but they show up on seemingly random dates in the Android app timeline.


Android:
Web:
This wasn't happening until maybe the last couple of updates. Not sure exactly when.
@PancakeZik commented on GitHub (Dec 9, 2023):
I have something quite similar, and it's solved when I fully refresh the time line in the mobile app
@lnagel commented on GitHub (Jan 1, 2024):
Hey,
I've been experiencing the same problem both in the web and mobile apps during the past days. This was triggered when I geotagged some photos externally and then re-synced in Immich. A lot of photos started appearing out of order.
I investigated and it seems that while the time bucket API correctly uses
localDateTimethen I have a feeling that web and mobile apps further group assets in each timeline bucket usingfileCreatedAt.The big problem with
fileCreatedAtvalue is that it is taken from the Linux stat call fieldmtime- this is the file modification date, which gets updated whenever someone edits the file. There are tools of course to sync the EXIF datetime into filesystem modification time, but this breaks file syncing utilities such as SyncThing from detecting changes.Code search links:

@russelltg commented on GitHub (Mar 12, 2024):
I have a similar issue--I uploaded a bunch of files with incorrect original datetimes, and then used the
updateAssetsAPI to fix them. When I click/tap on them, they have the correct date/time, but they are still in the old incorrect spot in the timeline. Repro's on web and mobile.On mobile, rebuilding the timeline (refresh twice) does not help.
@susovit commented on GitHub (Mar 27, 2024):
I have issues with my screenshots. I imported the Google photos and all the screenshots are shown as uploaded date. PS: Captured photos have proper date.
@vladkosarev commented on GitHub (Apr 5, 2024):
Same issue here. Web app seems to have more stable dates but android app is all over the place including Fri, Dec 31, 2049 images which do have correct exif dates set and work fine in web app.
@Tyree commented on GitHub (Apr 5, 2024):
Still wrong intermittently for me. I'll take some photos and one or two of them will end up listed under the following day. A restart of immich and then it's fine.
Only does this on the android app. Web is usually good to go.
@Tyree commented on GitHub (Jun 25, 2024):
Still same issue. Happens pretty much every time I take more photos with my phone. They'll initially show strewn over a few days since the last date photos were added. Later on, I'll look and the photos will appear on the correct day.
Again, web seems correct immediately. This is just on the Android app.
@alextran1502 commented on GitHub (Jun 25, 2024):
@Tyree which phone model are you using, and which version of the OS? Is there anything special set in the settings regarding gps data, location permissions for photos...etc?
@Tyree commented on GitHub (Jun 25, 2024):
I'm using a Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra - Android 14
Versions of the app have changed since I initially noticed this issue, but currently on 1.106.3 build.143
As far as I know it's all stock as far as photo location settings on the phone. I haven't messed with it. I don't even know where to mess with that. :-D I'm glad to look and see if anything is wonky if you tell me where to find those settings.
Right now, my timeline is perfect. Matches the web. I'm not sure exactly what happens that corrects it. But initially it'll be like this (All of those photos were taken on June 23 within minutes, but as you can see, when they first are uploaded and shown in Immich, they are all over the place.):

@ste7enm commented on GitHub (Aug 7, 2024):
Just adding here that I have a similar issue – on my device (iPhone, app version 1.111.0 build.167), it shows my timeline correctly, but on the web I see images shot in the evenings under the next day.
For example, this image is showing that it was shot on Wednesday at 6:03 PM, and it shows under Wednesday on my phone, but in the web interface it shows under Thursday in the library.
I'm running Immich 1.111.0 in a docker container, I am passing the timezone environment variable and I ran an 'extract metadata - all' job after adding timezone.
