I have searched the existing issues, both open and closed, to make sure this is not a duplicate report.

The bug

User A creates a shared album, and adds an image to it (so they have the Owner role). Then User B is added with "Editor" right to this album, who also adds an image to it.

Now user B tries to use the "Remove from album" action on both of these images. It works on their own image, but fails to remove User A's image. However User A is able to remove both of the images.

On the web interface if an image is not owned by the Editor, the "Remove from album" is missing in the "..." menu in the top right corner. However "Add to album" and "Add to shared album" is still visible, neither of them work though, you get the message "Asset cannot be added to the album".

On the Android app side, "Remove from album" is visible for the image not owned by the Editor, but on the first click nothing happens. On the second click we go back to the album view without any error message, but the image is not removed.

"Contributor" might be a more appropriate name for this current situation, as an editor typically modifies the full content of some publication, not just parts added by themselves.

Alternatively there could be a way to add multiple owners, or have an additional role for actually having full editor rights. My suggestions are "Real Editor" or "Grand Curator". 😄
