Autoupload options missing when uploading manually

[Bugsbane]

Actual behaviour

Currently, when a number of files are uploaded to NC by Androids share function, it lets you choose which folder to upload them to, and that's it. Meanwhile, autoupload gives some highly useful options such as automatically separating via folder and deleting the files afterwards. These don't exist when uploading manually.

Expected behaviour

The same options that are available in autoupload (auomatic subfolders, deleting the file afterwards etc) should be available, regardless of which method is used to upload.

Steps to reproduce

1. Select a ton of photos to upload (because upload pre-existing photos still doesn't work)
2. Choose "share" > Nextcloud > NC Folder
3. Have to manually choose separate folders for each photo and manually check which photos were uploaded and manually delete each one instead of having the app do it for you.

GitMate.io thinks possibly related issues are #399 (autoupload truncates files), #1174 (Android O), #804 (AutoUpload misses many files), #1989 ( Missing Files in Android), and #2049 (Autoupload only works for image file types).

Do it the other way around:

• open nc app
• go into desired folder
• select upload file
• select "move file to NC folder"

This way all uploaded files are moved locally from e.g. DCIM to nc folder.

Also #2873 will help you, once it is in.

If you are satisified with the ideas, please close the issue.

Doesn't work for my usecase. In this case, because #2873 isn't in yet, I'm going through and uploading old images, one month at a time. There's no view when uploading from the NC app, that will show me my images separated out by the day / month they were taken. That's why I used the Samsung Gallery app (which does let me view files separated out by date), and then shared the images from there. When I do this though, it removes any option to delete on upload, or to file by folders matching the date.

Now you might call my usecase obscure, or suggest that it's covered when #2783 is in, but if options were commonly needed enough to include in auto-upload, then surely they're likely to be common enough for people uploading through share, as well... Other apps can provide more ways of filtering than the NC app, and rather than try to compete with all of them, why not just allow us to use other apps and still have the same upload options as auto-upload?
