Mobile app doesn't indicate view-only access in shared album

[reidprichard]

The bug

When viewing a shared album with only "view" permission in the mobile app (iOS or Android), it's not obvious that photos cannot be added. The "add photos" button is still present, and clicking it brings up the menu to add photos. You can select photos and click "add", which silently fails - no error message appears explaining what happened.
Similarly, while viewing a photo, you can add it to the shared album, which also silently fail.

Reproduction steps

1. Create a shared album as user 1
2. Share with another user ("user 2") and assign "view" permissions (not "edit")
3. As user 2, attempt to add photos to the shared album via the iOS or Android mobile app
4. No error message is produced, yet photos are not actually added
