[Feature] add to album without having to select / go into selection mode | add pictures in an album to another album / add album pictures to another album

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

The feature

This is something from google photos which is pretty convenient. I look at a picture. Then I feel was really useful: the ability to just swipe down and add the picture you just opened up and be able to add it to an album. Right now, you have to select it only then the option opens up. This goes for pictures in albums, as I regularly have pictures in an album that I want to add in another album.

Also it would be good if it shows you what albums its already. For when in selection mode too

The screen recording isn't very clear to me. Can you share a video of the google photos behaviour that you're referencing?

For immich mobile app, you're unable to add photos in the "On this Device" library into an album.
You're unable to add photos within albums into another album.
You have to go into the timeline, and manually multi-select to add them into the album.
