I created a —separate— album and uploaded 2 photos at once. No problem.
What browser do you use?
Safari (pop ups are not blocked, javascript and cookies are enabled) on iOS 10.2.1, iPAD Air and iPhone 6s, and also Mac OS X 10.11.6.
I have Firefox and Chrome and will retry.
I also have Windows 7 machine. Will try that too if Apple products fail.
Multi file upload requires browser support for HTML5. But not all browsers that support HTML5 do also support multi file uploads.

Opa,
I am already using HTML5, CSS3 compliant browsers.
I was finally able to get multi-file upload on the A Option to work by removing several plugins. When I figure out which one(s) was creating the conflict I will inform.
Items put in suspension are:
- popup-builder-silver
- updraft plus
- wp-optimize
Addendum:
Spoke too soon. Now after further testing, not sure any of the listed plugins are a factor at all.
All Uploads are via the Admin backend, Box A.
Right after removing the three plugins, I tried to upload three files and it worked. Yay!
Then I tried 10 images, and no joy. Then five, then four, all failed. Then three. So, I can upload three at a time. Image sizes are 1.8MB or so. File names are simple – img####.png. All this with Safari browser from Mac OS X v10.11.6 or iOS 10.2.1.
I tried to use Box C. This also did not work. My username account is _David. The leading underscore may be a factor. The folder _David exists in the depot, but is not shown in the drop down. The path is shown in Box C, like this “You can upload one zipfile. It will be placed in your personal wppa-depot: …/wp-content/wppa-depot/_David”. But on the import screen “Import photos from:” the drop down choice control shows “— My depot —“, and “— My depot —/_MACOSX”. An “Archive.zip” uploaded using Box C was not found anywhere in the home directory of the web file system.
If you upload a .zip in box C, it will be placed in “— My depot —“. First run the import proc to unpack the zip, afterwrds, run the import proc to import the photos.
