[Feature] Include iOS “Saved from” and “Shared with you” metadata

[PANICBUTT0N]

I have searched the existing feature requests, both open and closed, to make sure this is not a duplicate request.

• Yes

The feature

Apologies if these two features are dissimilar enough that I should be making two separate feature requests for each of them.

iOS Photos has a feature that allows you to view, search, and filter by the app an asset was saved from:

It also has a feature that allows you to view who shared an asset with you on Messages:

This would be a great feature to have in Immich, especially the former of the two because it is very helpful for deleting excess videos saved from TikTok, Instagram, etc.

I understand that the latter of the two features is currently not possible to the extent that it is in iOS, as Immich does not have access to the contacts on one’s phone, but a possible implementation could be noting that the image was shared to the user on Messages from someone else and allowing the user to create a sort of in-Immich database “contacts” database and/or choosing a person from Immich’s facial recognition database to assign to a photo’s sender.
