1. Restrict Photo Uploads to Only New Camera Captures
Currently, users can upload existing images from their device storage. It would be valuable to have an option to enforce real-time photo capture only for specific use cases (e.g., field inspections, verification processes).
Suggested Implementation:
- Add a toggle in form/field settings to enable “Camera-Only Mode” (disables file picker).
- Mobile: Opens device camera directly.
- Desktop: gives option 2 mentioned below.
2. Cross-Device Uploads (Mobile ↔ Desktop)
Many platforms (like Trello) allow users to upload files from a mobile device while working on a desktop session. This is especially useful for attaching photos/docs taken on-the-go.
Suggested Workflow:
- A “Send to Mobile” button generates a QR code/link.
- Scanning the code opens the NocoBase upload interface on the user’s phone.
- Files captured/selected on mobile sync to the desktop session automatically.
Use Cases:
- Field staff submitting site photos during desktop data entry.
