Deleting photos on iPhone does not remove them from Immich
Usage☑️ReadyHi team,
I'm backing up my iPhone photos to Immich (running on my NAS). When I delete photos on my iPhone after they've been backed up, they remain in Immich, which makes sense from a backup perspective.
What I'm trying to clarify:
• Is this the expected default behavior (one-way backup only)?
• Is there any setting that enables a "mirror mode" so deletions on the phone also remove them from Immich?
Expected result:
• Open the app on iPhone → delete an image through the app → be prompted to delete locally AND on the server (moved to trash) → the image is removed from the location on the NAS (docker\immich\Uploads\library\admin\2026\02)
Issue:
• The image is not being moved from the library to the trash.
