Offline Uploader

Has anyone solved the issue where the native action “Open Camera library” will not open if the device is offline?

Users are reporting this is taking a very long time to open when action is triggered if the device has a weak connection and will not open at all if connection is lost entirely.

Ideally, I would want to make the app open the library so the user can select the image(s) and have them saved temporarily so the user can continue uninterrupted. “offline-first” if you will. Then have a trigger for when device is back online to upload those items.

I’m assuming it requires a connection now because the “open camera library” action already connects to the server to upload the selections. however If there was a workaround or a plugin to allow the user to still open their library and make selections then save that data locally that would allow them to continue with what they are doing and not face extreme load times.

am I just not seeing an easy fix or is there not one?

Thanks

Image upload is a poor user experience - especially multi-image. I’ve found this plugin to solve some of my issues, however - bubble needs to invest here big time. native image upload is really the one thing that makes us feel like 2nd class no-coders.
