It’s much too easy to swipe left or right on the queued images or sequences to delete them. When I try to swipe up or down it has to be exactly straight up and down or otherwise it locks and swipes left or right.

I’ve noticed this as well, @Yaro would that be a straightforward adjustment to make?

Thank you for highlighting this, @**[dsdfidksmyw](https://forum.mapillary.com/u/dsdfidksmyw)**. I will take a look at the cause of that and address it 🙂

I’m having issues with Importing images in the the app (2026.03.16-6.12.76), on my Samsung A53 after the latest set of updates (OneUI 8.0 / Android 16 / security correction level 5th of April 2026).

The app refuses the import images from the default Camera app, with the message (translated) :

- Import have been completed, but some pictures were skipped over due to errors:
- 3 pictures: gps-data missing

BTW, uploading the images through the Desktop uploader (5.0.3) works as expected.

Is this a known issue ?

Default setting for 1x vs .6x for shooting mode is removed? I think it was there before 🤔

@brunofilmklov - do you think you could provide the original files so we can investigate (maybe via Google Drive, cc: @Yaro )

@ursus - are you saying you don’t see the .5x or .6x mode anymore? I still see it, so just wanted to confirm.

@boris  
I see .6x, but previously I think I had set 1x somewhere in settings to be default. Now when I open shooting mode, .6x is always selected and I need manually switch to 1x each time.

I currently on a hike tour in Turkey and found another issue:

In map view I see real imagery coverage, but in shooting mode coverage is completely different and looks more “perfect” like there are much more images. Here are screenshots from same location:

I made another thread without checking here, glad to see it’s being worked on. The app needs the MediaLocationPermission

Thank you for the message (and for the link). Indeed, Google provided [security patch](https://android.googlesource.com/platform/packages/providers/MediaProvider/+/69a25763cdb46c8f23fe9eb976132acbe2af82d6?fbclid=IwY2xjawRxnkVleHRuA2FlbQIxMQBicmlkETFXMHJwMGZ6a3BrOEhPZEVUc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQBMAABHpOWSG0xtGCTZ3FJiNXHut1Un3-fBPTDnK2rttCvSTVrcobFVLnrfpb3q8oe_aem_QTpK8Arvs_NGaH37K7pOxA) to block location access in files through SAF. Thus, those who received this update cannot import images anymore (for newer devices). We are planning to include it in the next release.

Hi @boris any updates on that secret feature/bug? 😁 I again noticed that in shooting mode more coverage paths are shown

It is interesting, as you have a path covered in green, while there are no coverage sequences on Mapillary (relatively near). In general, that should never happen, so this is looking like an interesting case. Thanks for the report.

Are you the developer of it ?

I see no way to update a plugin.

It does not show the direction. I use it a lot. Or I can use my previous tracks in another colour.
