Hi everyone, I'm having an issue with shared albums in Synology Photos. Problem: When viewing a shared album via a public web link, clicking on any photo makes it expand inline at the top of the page. You have to scroll all the way up to see it. There is no proper centered full-screen...

Hi I innstalled 1.9.0 yesterday and my gut feeling is that performance is improved significant. Anyone seen something similar ?

I have several users on my DS920 and for fun I built a Raspberry pi 5 nas for offline backup. Using nextcloud on my Pi I'd like to copy the users' photos over to the PI server. Can anyone point me to the correct folders. TIA

I copied 20 years worth of photos organized in folders to the Photo share. How do I get Photos to index and generate previews? I don't want to open each folder and sub-folder manually to add them.

Hi We have had our NAS for a bit and only really used it as a backup. I recently went digging around and discovered some useful apps like Synology Photos and DS Audio. I believe I have set it up correctly (used a few You Tube tutorials), but I must have missed something but I cannot work out...

Hello I updated my NAS to DSM 7.2 which also involved updating the photo app on phone All the photos I have I uploaded and sorted them into folders under /photo. The preview version of the app would see this folders and albums but the new version does not. I have re-indexed a few times now...

After the last update to the photos app, it has been duplicating my newly added pics. I looked at the info on each duplicate, and it matches the original. If I remove the duplicates it's fine. However. it's very annoying. Anyone know of a fix?? TIA

I just got a unas pro and migrating all my media storage to this device, and using it for local backups etc. I have a 918+ that is going to get shipped to a family members house to keep 2 of my smaller HDs and "update" their aging 213j series. I have a 223 at my house I was using solely for...

Hi, I own a DS218+. I used to map the photos shared folder on my windows pc, Linux and Mac. I recently moved from ext3 to btrfs and after that I realized I could not connect anymore. Apparently a permissions issue even though I could not find anything wrong. I therefore selected the photo...

When you effortlessly scroll through tens of thousands of photos in Synology Photos or share project images with team members, the experience feels seamless. But have you ever wondered how the backend system works to deliver such smooth performance? Think of Synology Photos’ backend as a...

Dear all, I have a Synology DS923+ and just installed Synology photos. I have enabled two users linked to the permissions in Synology photos. After the installation Synology Photos logically is empty, so I want to backup my Photos from my iPhone to Synology photos. And here the problems...

When I first got my DS1513+, Synology's photo solutions were not so convincing, so I set up my own hierarchy of directories (under "images") to store graphic files (not just photos). Now I am considering using Synology Photos. I am particularly interested in the ability to have the same photo...

A recent Synology Photos package update was recently released. According to the below release notes, bullet point 5 needs to be clarified. Once you update to this version of synology photos, do you then need to delete out your current hyper backup task and recreate it, so that you can take...

Hello all. New user here. I did search for this on the forums and found similar issues but nothing exactly like this. I'm uploading several photos over DSM and about 300-400 of them are showing up as the wrong date. The best I can tell, Synology Photos is referencing "Date Imported" instead of...

I just finished getting synology photos up and running and have backed up all my photos from my phone (yay!). However, I use my phone for product shots for ebay etc. These just clutter up my timeline. How can I hide them from the timeline?

Hello everyone, I’m wondering if anyone can help me to solve this issue. I’d like to move away from QuickConnect and set up Cloudflare Tunnels for the mobile apps. The problem is that the access doesn’t seem to work for the mobile apps. While this works normally as expected in the browser, the...

Ok, for the last several years I've been using a feature in Synology photos on my pc. In the peoples area, I could click on a person's face it would alert me saying there were matching faces in the personal space and did I want to merge them. However, this feature is no longer coming up. Does...
