Other user can see my (admin) photos when they log in
I saw another user on Reddit asking about the same observation, but don't see that he brought the issue here. I set up Immich on Ugreen Nas 6800 today and uploaded 18,000 of my own photos through the Android app as the Admin user. I then logged on with the account I made for my wife (non-admin) and she can see my entire library and folder structure. I tried clearing cache on my Android device and then clearing all data and when I log in again it's the same, we're looking at the same contents. On my server she has a separate folder that's populated with some of the same folders as my library - it feels like there was some persistence in the Android app between logins that then "infected" the other user library? Partner sharing is not on.

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.Reproduced this, may be this is by design but it was not expected behaviour: after backing up my own selected folders using the first (admin) account, I logged off and logged in with my wife's to test a non-admin account. Unknown to me, the folders to back up had persisted and a backup began, putting most of the contents of those selected folders in her Immich account. What I would have expected is that selected folders would be reset, or be saved in the individual account.
