1. hard question. We wanted to work on it this year already, but hope the next ...

2. I miss it too, but understand the reasons why (most of) the rest of the team wants to get rid of it. Create an idea on the help desk with "Easier switch of the profile without recalculation" and with some votes, I may push this topic in the team  ;)

@Tapio
do you have an idea, what may help here? A search in folders? A sorting by num of photos?

1. so there won't be a track gallery in the long run? Why can't you make it available for the time being as in the last betas and adapt it later (in "a slightly different style", as you wrote) when "Sync of attachments" is implemented one day? It's a shame and even annoying when a good new function is first introduced and then removed again.

2. Done. Even if I don't hold out much hope. Many ideas in the helpdesk quickly slip down the list and then fall out of focus...

1. sorry, I know, my mistake. Have to be more careful than before. Same with the "Default action".

I used to push smaller functions out quite quickly, without a wider discussion in the team. But it seems, it won't be so easy now ...

2. thanks

Hmmm, at best a collapsible/expandable hierarchy with the possibility to show/hide all sub-items.

At the very least to be able to activate/deactivate all eye symbols.

Is there a way you can trigger the android media indexing? It's unfortunately not as transparent as the direct file access. You sometimes take pictures, but it takes a while until it appears eg in Locus, Google Photos etc...

I'm currently using the beta version and the track gallery is still there. I have the new version on my second phone for testing purposes and the track gallery is missing.
I took a lot of pictures on my vacation and they are in the track gallery. I don't want to lose them.
So I'll stick with the beta for now.
The Track Gallery will be added later. Will I still lose the pictures when I update?
Or will all pictures on the phone be assigned to the Track Gallery later, even those from the past?

I would say the latter.

The track gallery in the beta (which I will continue to use for now) is just a link to all the images that were taken during recording (regardless of geotagging).

I installed the beta and the new release version a few times (changing between both versions). Every time I reinstalled the beta, the track gallery with all corresponding images was back.

However, "later" seems to be more of a long-term prospect. Maybe sometime next year or even later, as Assamm is making it dependent on the introduction of attachment synchronisation. At least, that's how I understood it.

Sticking with the latest beta for that long probably doesn't make sense.
