In the current implementation of the Expo Media Library, there is no direct way to save a file to a specific album without first creating an asset. This process results in the file being saved in the DCIM folder before it is added to the desired album. While it is possible to delete the asset from the DCIM folder after adding it to the album, this action requires additional user permission and can lead to a less than optimal user experience.
It would be beneficial to have a feature that allows files to be saved directly to a specific album without the intermediate step of creating an asset in the DCIM folder. This feature would streamline the process of organizing files in albums and enhance the user experience by reducing the number of permissions required.
