The bug

I backed up my old phone (iPhone 15 Pro, iOS 26.0.1) with Apple Devices (Apples new Windows app,) restored to a new phone (iPhone 17 Pro, iOS 26.0.1). When i open Immich it says backup is done. The content in my selected Backup Album "Recents" only shows content up to the point of switching phones, despite my iOS album having more content in it.

Tried restarting the server, phone, app etc. without change. Reinstalling the app fixed it, after it had prepared all images again there were 22 new uploads.
