Feature detail

As a user I want to be able to quickly select multiple photos to add them to an album
So that I can organize and share my photos quickly with others

When opening the "Add photos" menu on the mobile-app I'd like to Drag-to-Select multiple consecutive images to quickly add them to an album

When selecting Images on the web, after selecting an initial Image, I want to be able to "SHIFT+Click" to select every consecutive photo in between the first selected photo and the one I clicked on. This could also be reversed (I select the last picture and "SHIFT+Click" on the first one"

With multiple photos already selected, this should also work for de-selecting them ("drag-to-select", or "shift-click")

One of my main problems with Google Photos was how inflexible it was with selecting photos. I want to be able to select them just like I would in a file manager. It would be really nice if Immich would do this better than Google Photos! Organisation is a huge part of backups

I think this is a major feature that will really make it much easier to create albums. Now its very painful if the number of pictures is big and they are mixed with other stuff in the same date

This is a super cool idea!

When opening the "Add photos" menu on the mobile-app I'd like to Drag-to-Select multiple consecutive images to quickly add them to an album

I can't think how to disambiguate between "Drag-to-Select" and "Drag-to-Scroll" on mobile. Do you have any ideas?

The functionally between drag to select and scroll is basically a long press and then scroll (without a release between the two) vs long press to select followed by a release and then independent scroll.

Can you set a flag on long press and clear it on long press release? If the flag is set and scroll is happening we should be selecting.
