Thanks for posting on the Community, lewiskei.

What I may suggest in the meantime, is to disable camera uploads on your mobile app, whenever you don’t feel like you need to use it, and turn it back on when you wish to upload specific photos again (you’ll need to select the “New photos only” setting, when re-enabling the feature).
