Auto-uploaded files that are moved to app folder are deleted from local storage the next time the folder is viewed in the app

[DoctorMcKay]

Actual behaviour

After images are taken and auto-uploaded, they are moved to the app folder as expected. However, the next time the folder containing those images are viewed in the Nextcloud app, the images are deleted.

Expected behaviour

The images should not be deleted and should appear with a green checkmark as with all other locally-available files.

Steps to reproduce

1. Enable auto upload for e.g. the camera
2. Change "Original file will be..." to "moved to app folder"
3. Take a picture
4. View the upload subfolder of the app folder in a file explorer and notice that the image has been moved there
5. Open the upload folder in the app and notice that the newly-uploaded image has no green checkmark
6. View the upload subfolder of the app folder in a file explorer again and notice that the image is gone

Thanks for the report.

@AndyScherzinger think you can test this?

[AndyScherzinger]

I can confirm that bug with LG G4 6.0 stock
Take a picture-->Pic is in standard folder
Pic get uploaded--->Pic isn't anymore in standard camera folder
Pic should be accesable via file explorer, but there is no pic.
If u open the app u can see the pic in your AutoUpload folder

It seems that the file will be deleated from sdcard and only availible "online". I think @DoctorMcKay will say, that the images should stay offline after moving to the AutoUpload folder

[AndyScherzinger]

@Bullnados are you also using the "moved to app folder" option?

[Bullnados]

yes

[hornowitz]

I just wanted to say, that I can confirm this bug as well. "Moved to app folder" selected.
My Android device (6.0.1), Nextcloud App 1.4.2 and Nextcloud server 11.0.1.
Everything is going to be deleted after sucessfully uploaded.
