[Feature]: Wi-fi only option for foreground backup
Source: immich-app/immich#1598 · opened by @erlenddahl
Feature detail
If I understand them correctly, issues #983 and #421 are both closed as the backup options work as intended. Therefore, this is a request for an additional feature: a wi-fi only option for the foreground upload would be very useful. I like the foreground upload, as that gives me a way of controlling when to upload. But when there is no wi-fi only option for it, that also means that I cannot use Immich at all when I am travelling, and that would be a shame. (I could rush into settings and deactivate the foreground upload, of course, but then I'd have to remember that each time).
I think it would be very nice if the wi-fi only option worked for both types of upload.
(I discovered this today, when Immich used 7GB of my data quota because of some assets that failed and were retried a lot of times before I noticed. That may be another issue in itself, of course, but a wifi only option could have saved me.)
