Photo entries are the quick-capture alternative to typed entries. Useful for "spotted this skin mark this morning" or "Joanne's art piece from today" — anything visual that's worth a thousand words.
Adding a photo entry
Click New diary entry in the header.
In the chooser dialog, pick Upload a photo. On mobile your camera / photo library opens immediately.
Pick the image and confirm. A caption field is available — keep it short.
Submit. The photo appears as a diary entry at the current time, attributed to you.
Note — Photo entries are diary entries — they appear in the same feed, count toward the day's entry total, and follow the same lock/edit rules as text entries.
When photo uploads are disabled
Your realm admin can disable photo uploads in Diary configuration. When disabled:
The chooser dialog is skipped — clicking New diary entry opens the text editor directly.
Inline image upload inside the rich-text editor is also off.
Heads up — Photos are part of the legal record once submitted. Get explicit consent before photographing a supported person, especially their body, face or possessions. Follow your service's consent policy.
