Screen saver with Immich photos on IOS

[owpac]

Hello!

It would be awesome to have a screen saver with Immich photos on IOS!

I know there is some kind of alternative for computers with #8065, but it can't be used for phones (IOS nor Android).

Thanks for all the good work with Immich!

I believe ImmichFrame has an Android build. @3rob3 got any plans for iOS? :P

You're right about the Android build, my bad!

It would be easy enough to add iOS, but a few things have kept me from pursuing:

• The ridiculous Apple developer fee.
• No sideloading, so no easy way around the above.
• iOS doesn't support screensavers (I had a tvOS build working when I started the project, but abandoned it when I realized I would never be able to set it as a screensaver).

I see. I understand the two first point. For the third, maybe there is another approach than screensavers: widgets and lock screen with photos? 🤔

WDYT?

The ridiculous Apple developer fee.

If you set up github sponsors I'll chip in a little bit (and most likely others too)
