Photouploader-related question

[rhee.yongjoon]

Please someone can help me with a few issues that I am facing?

I am developing an app for home inspection services, in which an inspector takes photos of any defects or problems in a property that is being inspected. In average, approx 200 photos are taken per site (property) - 2 photos per problem found (one for close-up and the other for overall area containing the problem).

Solutions seeking are:

1. When a picture is taken using an Bubble app’s photouploader element, it does not store photos on the device. Is there any way that I can keep them on the device?

2. In most cases, the sites have a very weak internet signal, so I am noticing uploading photos take many seconds (I am guessing more than 7-10 sec) if I am lucky, or hits timeout error. To solve this issue, I wish to know if compressing image files would help uploading speed (if yes, how?) and if there is a way to keep the images taken temporarily elsewhere in order to bring them later. FYI, I am storing images at custom states until hitting SAVE button.

I’d appreciate any small tips for my problems.

Ciao~

Have a look at some of the photo upload plugins available. I’ve tested most, and different ones are better suited for different use cases. There are some in which the upload seems almost immediate, in that the preview is available before you actually upload it to the file manager. Some might even combine features such as compress on upload.

Sorry I can not recommend one in particular.
