upgraded to iPhone 3Gs and now all photos are marked as new

[AREA51]

I just upgraded my old iPhone to the new iPhone 3Gs. I reinstalled the Eye-Fi app and when I "select new" it selects ALL my photos instead of the actual new ones. I'm assuming this is because I switched devices? Is there anyway to override this? I have over 1500 photos that I don't want to re-upload.

The "select new" button has some unfortunate edge cases where it is awkward. Sadly you've run into one of them.

The "select new" button only selects new photos for this particular launch of the application. Any photos the application has already seen are no longer marked as "new". So if you want to avoid this behavior, you can simply launch the app twice, making sure not to press "select new" the first launch.

Also note that the "select new" button is a toggle, it will also "deselect new" photos, but with the same property in which only photos that were new at the time of this particular launch will be deselected.

I would love to hear your suggestions for a better "select new" behavior.

Best,

alex: you could have two buttons, one button that acts as "marked as read" to mark photos (either by tapping them individually, or selecting all of them to be marked) similar to how emails work. And another button for "select new". When selected, those photos can be uploaded to eye-fi manager.

All of this utilizing the same schema as emails.
