iOS app loading exceptionally slow (iOS 26B2)
This happens even when local thumbnails are disabled. This does not happen on a device with NO local photos.
Issue is the title basically, The loading of the app stutters and scrolling doesn't work. Let the app rest for about a min and it's snappy and responsive. My library is about 2TB of photos of all sorts including a large external library full of Sony ARWs. Although as i mentioned the issue does not occur on devices with an empty local photo library.
possibly related to https://github.com/immich-app/immich/issues/19370 https://github.com/immich-app/immich/issues/16348 https://www.reddit.com/r/immich/comments/1k61k3x/thumbnail_issue_ios_app/ so i'll @Alex Tran as they seem to be on all of these issues
I am going to get a mac soon so i am happy to contribute to debugging ecetera. For a temporary fix, deleting all the local photos on my phone would be an option but it's not really ideal for me.
Asside, i am so happy to be able to self-host photos in this way, This app is fantastic and i am looking forward to supporting it's development and contributing to it's success. NextCloud photos was not cutting it lol.

Information
In order to be able to effectively help you, we need you to provide clear information to show what the problem is. The exact details needed vary per case, but here is a list of things to consider:
- Your docker-compose.yml and .env files.
- Logs from all the containers and their status (see above).
- All the troubleshooting steps you've tried so far.
- Any recent changes you've made to Immich or your system.
- Details about your system (both software/OS and hardware).
- Details about your storage (filesystems, type of disks, output of commands like fdisk -l
and df -h
).
- The version of the Immich server, mobile app, and other relevant pieces.
- Any other information that you think might be relevant.
Please paste files and logs with proper code formatting, and especially avoid blurry screenshots.
Without the right information we can't work out what the problem is. Help us help you ;)
If this ticket can be closed you can use the /close
command, and re-open it later if needed.Docker Compose is stock + an external library, .env is just a database. upload storage is a remote NAS cluster but it's not related the issue

Okay I thought it was related, thanks. Where do you think my contribution would be helpful in this regard
This is a pretty intensive work that required internal collaboration, so unfortunately there is not much for external contributors to work on about this topic
Is there a timeline? It’s fairly unusable unless I often delete all local photos on my phone
Hopefully in the next two months
Do you also have many album?
Not a large amount of albums
But my external library has many Folders
Also, not sure if it’s planned or not. But a “clear local storage” button, like google photos, would be very nice
As long as it’s clearly communicated to the user that the implication is that there is now only one copy of the files it’s okay imo
It’s planned
