Just updated the Android client from 0.9.98 to 0.9.99 on my Samsung S23 FE device running Android 14.
After the update, I launched Ente, browsed some photos, selecter a dozen new ones I wanted to delete... I deleted them and then, something weird happened. The whole Ente app froze for a few seconds, and then I noticed that ALL my photos were in the trash.
I mean, ALL my collection, including all the photos up there in cloud and not in my smartphone.
I'm speaking about more than 40,000 pics in 15 years.
The very annoying thing is that I can't find a "restore all the photos at once" in the trash area. In order to get my pics back, I must select them ONE BY ONE (or date by date), and then I must specify the album I want to put them in... There's no way I'll find time to do this very boring process for ALL my collection.
Is there any way to "restore to original albums" in any way?
If not, I think this is a MAJOR security issue.

All my photos in the trash?
[Ente 0.99.9 Android] All my photos in the trash?
Mar 15, 2025
I think I finally found out what happened... It's not a bug, it's a feature! Or maybe it's a REALLY BAD CHOICE of design;
When you select several pics in the interface of the Android app, there's a small box named "Tout" in french (that is, "everything" or "whole" in english), which allows to select every pic in the collection.
It's a very tiny option that appears in a weird place, only after few pics have already been selected. I guess I checked this option accidently and it froze the interface for few seconds, while I was clicking the "Delete" button.
