  1. Tap Take a photo to use the camera, or Choose a photo to pick one from the device.
  2. Type a Caption, for example Wearing course at CH 0+060, looking north.
  3. To keep the photo off the report, turn off On the report.

To remove a photo, tap the red minus sign.

Upload the photos

A new photo shows Waiting to upload. Lab uploads it after the test or lot is saved and sent. If the server refuses a photo, the reason shows under it.

Note: Lab keeps the photo on the device until it is uploaded. Do not delete it from the device before the next sync.
