Hey guys, I hope you're doing well! 

 

Keep in mind that due to performance reasons, we have a limit in place on mobile to only load 100,000 photos and then any new photos after that. 

 

For the web this shouldn't be the case and you should be able to see all your photos. Your photos are definitely still there, we just might not load them onto the photos tab.

Since when? This didn’t used to be an issue.

And I still can’t load them in my files tab either.

Please fix this.

Come on.
