Uh oh!
There was an error while loading. Please reload this page.
I have searched the existing feature requests, both open and closed, to make sure this is not a duplicate request.
The feature
Now that we have a working download progress display, it would be great if this can be also used when sharing pictures or videos that are not allready downloaded.
Current Behavior:
Right now whe i select an item and press share, a loading image just shows "Vorbereiten..." (="prepare...", im not quite sure how it is translated exactly). When it finished downloading the item it will open the share options as expected.
The Problem:
The download, depending on the file size could take quite some time without any additional feedback, which led the not so tech savy part of my family to believe there is a problem and the app is not working.
Expected Behavior:
Show a progress bar when an item needs to be downloaded before sharing with a time estimation.
Quick Bodge:
Until there is time to implement this correctly I would think a message explaining that the picture/video is currently downloading before it can be shared solve some confusion.
Thank you for your amazing work. I think it is incredible how fast this project is evolving and how polished the experience is becoming!
