Terrible Security options

This app looks good on the surface and as a self hosted app it cannot handle most decent security and access - mtls for something like cloudflare etc - rejected and sitting open as a request for 2 years - I would strongly recommend you give this app a miss

Immich has been great

Great little widget, there is only two things that i wish were different.
First when I open a picture I see in the widget, how do I get to that timeline, can you add a See in Timeline option? My old brain has to write the date on paper so I don’t forget after backing out and scrolling to the date.
Also, when I click the widget and not connected to the server, I connect VPN and the picture instantly changes (maybe put a 10 second wait on connect to swap photo in widget)
Keep up the good work!

Incredible

Literally as good as Google Photos but locally hosted! Is that not incredible!

Hands down the best

This by far is the best photo manager for iOS and android.
No longer do I need to overpay for more storage on my phone.

I could toss all my pictures and videos I take on my camera and view it wherever I am. Works great with Sony Alpha cameras.

Immich is amazing

This app and ecosystem is proof of the power of OpenSource and gives me hope for humanity
