Description

Please consider adding a progress bar for the Cleanup Scans / OCR. It would provide users with a visual representation of the progress and improve the overall user experience. A progress bar helps users track the action completion and manage expectations. Additionally, it enhances communication and prioritization when multiple actions are running simultaneously.

Thank you for considering this feature request. It would greatly benefit the application and its users.

Research direction
This feature request aims to add a progress bar to all external calls (e.g., Cleanup Scans/OCR). To implement, first identify the existing external call functions in the frontend codebase, likely in the API service layer. Then, design a reusable progress bar component and integrate it with those calls. Review the issue comments for additional context or preferences from maintainers. Consider using existing UI libraries if present.
