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

The bug

When deleting photos or videos from the Immich Android app grid view, the app does not show any confirmation dialog.
The behavior differs based on the media location:

  • Normal media: Deleted items go to Trash automatically (recoverable).
  • Locked Folder media: Items are permanently deleted with no confirmation, which can cause irreversible data loss.

Deleting from the single-item preview does show a confirmation dialog correctly.

Do you use the Delete synchronization feature?

The button does say "Delete permanently" though:
Image

Do you consider that there should be another warning before it deletes?

Yes, it should warn before deleting any media permanently, its the same for main timeline view also, I am not getting any confirmation before deleting any media from the grid view, however from the main timeline view I can still get the media from trash but not from locked folder as its deleting permanently without any confirmation.
