Inconsistent iOS app behavior following 1.139.3
Primarily with Beta Timeline
I have personally found the sync behavior to be inconsistent following 1.139.3, which I found to be the most stable release. Ever since 1.140 and beyond, the app doesn’t consistently refresh when you open it and is more likely to have issues with thumbnails not loading.
These issues are always resolved by a simple swipe away and re-open of the app.
I’ve tried signing out and back in and uninstalling/reinstalling the app a couple times.

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.It also will randomly show zero albums on my phone, like in this screenshot. Again - remedied by swiping away and reopening the app.

Give the beta timeline a try
I think this is the soft freeze issue in the beta timeline.
Potentially addressed in #21705
This is with the beta timeline. And the issue just happened again. Opened the app and the spinning arrows at the top don’t go away. When I hit the cloud next to it to check upload status, it shows zero albums like in my screenshot above.
We are aware of the issue and are actively working on this. Thanks a lot for the report!
Do try the recent version and let us know if you still face any freezes after
