I’m having the same issue. Timeline crashes for me on apple tv, iphone, android, web… I have a large amount of photos \> 50k and Plex can’t handle int in any client. Frustrating and disappointing. ---

N.b.: I, too, have a considerable number of photos. 80k+/-. Maybe that’s part of the issue here?!? ---

Just tested Photos Timeline from iPadOS Plex app, v. 8.2. “Loading” spins and spins. After a few minutes, I went back to the home screen. When I came back to Plex, it crashed. ---
