- Immich always asks for confirmation when deleting an image on android. How can I disable that behavior?
- why is there no delete button for images/videos that are not yet uploaded? It’s annoyng to upload a huge video just to delete it. Why does the UI change dependent on the local/server status?

@illusionist Went digging in their repo instead of guessing.
Immich’s AndroidManifest caps READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE at maxSdkVersion=32. Android’s own MANAGE_MEDIA docs list that permission as one you have to declare for the no-prompt path, and on 13+ it’s never granted.
Their string for the permission also says it’s for “moving assets to the trash and restoring them”. Trash, not delete. Between those two, I’d stop expecting that toggle to do anything.
Wow, thank you! Although I’m not sure about the conclusion. I guess the devs are fully aware of the situation since they also use immich themselves. Maybe they always upload their images immediately so that they don’t focus on the situation in which the media is unsynced.
