New phone, iOS -> android, download library to phone locally?

I moved from iOS to android, and have been using Immich for over a year now, so it was super simple to not worry about keeping my photos. The problem becomes when I download images to the new phone they go in an “Immich” album, which my Immich instance thinks is brand new photos. Is there a clean way to just download all my photos to my device, and have my instance of Immich not think it’s a new photo due to library location? I’m willing to download a separate tool or something if need be.

Both client and server are on 2.1.0
