I’ve seen a lot of recommends for Immich on here, so I have an idea what the answer here is going to be, but I’m looking for some comparisons between it and Photoprism I’m currently using Synology Photos, and I think my biggest issue is it’s lack of metadata management. I’ve gotten around that with MetaImage and NeoFinder. I’m considering moving to something not tied to the Synology environment.

Both great projects I would also put librephotos to the equation with its feature rich unofficial android client Uhuru photos

All have great android apps and great Dev base

Have tried all three and also tried every other selfhosted image gallery

Photoprim is overall the most mature and complete in features

Yes it requires a third party app to sync your assets but the auto index feature if you sync to their webdav endpoint is killer. This means the proccess from the moment of taking a picture till it shows up in your photoprism gallery is "instant"

Also the unofficial android client is super great and almost android TV compatible

So

To be honest there is not a fair answer You really have to hey them all

What are the great android apps for photoprism? Last time I looked there were two unofficial ones which were both not great and neither allowed you to upload from.

https://github.com/Radiokot/photoprism-android-client

Is under partner apps

https://www.photoprism.app/partners

You can only upload from the pwa

Partner app photosync syncs with "import" folder which is a webdav endpoint photoprism exposes

I use foldersync for sync
