Title:
  Shotwell does not pick up on Android pictures properly.

Status in gPhoto2:

Status in “shotwell” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: shotwell

  Using an Android device, Shotwell scans the entire directory for
  pictures. It also picks up pictures used by apps. Whereas it should
  only pick up pictures taken by the camera and sent by bluetooth.

  Considering that there are other camera applications which can also
  create thier own folders outside of the 'offical' folder. I would
  suggest Shotwell look for pictures taken by the phone's camera (which
  is marked by metadata depicting it as such) as well as scanning
  Bluetooth folders. (Which no apps now create their own versions of)
  and to ignore all other folders.

  As it is right now, Shotwell can pick up and remove pictures from the
  device which damage or make unusable applications on the phone.
  Requiring a reinstall of the application.
