I have searched the existing issues, both open and closed, to make sure this is not a duplicate report.

The bug

Describe the bug
When multiple photos are taken around the same time, only one of them uploads to Immich.
The other photos remain on the device but do not appear in the Immich mobile gallery — making it impossible to manually retry upload, since the app only displays media that already exists on the server.

Expected behavior
All new photos taken on the phone should upload to Immich, and if upload fails, they should still be visible in the app with an option to retry.

Steps to reproduce
Take several photos in a short time (e.g. 3 photos in a row)
Wait for Immich auto-upload to run
Only one photo appears in the Immich web interface and in the app
The other photos remain on the phone’s gallery, but are missing in Immich app (so can’t be uploaded manually)
Environment
Phone: vivo X200 Pro (Android 15)

Installation type: Docker
Upload type: Auto-upload
Photo format: Standard JPG
Database: PostgreSQL (default from Immich Docker setup)
Additional context
Photos exist on the device and are visible in the system gallery
All taken within seconds of each other
Only one was uploaded
Internet connection stable
Restart not yet tested
Expected improvement: show pending / failed uploads in app to allow manual retry

Reproduction steps

Take several photos in a short time (e.g. 3 photos in a row)

Wait for Immich auto-upload to run

Only one photo appears in the Immich web interface and in the app

The other photos remain on the phone’s gallery, but are missing in Immich app (so can’t be uploaded manually)

Relevant log output

Additional information

I noticed this behavior by accident, I don't know when it started.
