Hi all, you can now optimize an uploaded or captured image size for improved performance with the optimize image size setting on the Open Camera and Open Camera Library workflow actions.
This setting will reduce the resolution of images larger than 1080p down to 1080p, which is similar to what many messaging and social media sites do. In some real world testing, images that used to take 15-20 seconds dropped down to around 6s.
There is more work to be done to improve image loading times / loading experience, but this setting should help out in the mean time.
Thank you, does this also work for videos? Currently videos 3 seconds long take over 40 seconds to upload.
Videos can only be uploaded using a plugin right now, so you’d want to reach out to the plugin developer for this.
The issue is Bubble only exposes the base64 code, and sending this to process can only happen on the front end, regardless of the plugin. I’ve already tried exploring options with Zeroqode and they mention this limitation from Bubble. So unless Bubble allows another workaround, videos will always crash if the user closes the app mid-upload, & take a very long time to upload in general.
