Albums
Browse, create, upload from your phone, rate, cull, and photo info.
The Albums tab is the heart of the app — everything from creating an album to rating photos on the move.
Browsing
Albums show as a list (thumbnail, name, date, photo count) or a grid of cover cards — toggle between them with the layout button in the top-right. Tap + to create a new album.

Creating an album
The New album sheet mirrors the web create form:
- Album — name, event date, description, public/private, optional password.
- Type of shoot — wedding, portrait, corporate, sports, and so on. For a sports shoot you can tag the disciplines (F1, motocross, sailing, cycling, football…).
- Workflow — Live gallery, Proofing, Culling, Finals delivery, Sneak peek.
- Recognition — Face detection, Bib/number, Visual clustering, Helmet — with the GDPR Article 9 legal-basis confirmation required before face/visual can be enabled.
- Other — FTP uploads, Watermark, AI metadata.
Inside an album
Opening an album shows its detail view:
- Header — photo count, event date, and a Recognize button if any recognition pipeline is on (see the next chapter).
- People and Teams strips — horizontally scrolling clusters and team chips (tap a team chip to share it).
- Quick filters — All · Picks · Unrated · Rejected, each with a live count.
- Photo grid — a 3-column grid of the album's photos.

Uploading from your phone
Tap the upload button (top-right) to pick photos from your camera roll — up to 10 at a time. They upload straight into the album.
Your camera's own FTP uploads land in whichever album you set as Active album in Profile — that's the on-location workflow; the camera-roll picker is for one-off phone shots.
Rating & culling
- Long-press a tile to enter multi-select (tiles get a ring + checkmark).
- The bottom action bar then lets you rate (1–5 stars or clear), reject, or share the selection.
- Tap a single photo to open the lightbox — swipe between photos, rate or reject, and Save to Photos.
Photo info & tagging
In the lightbox, the header has two buttons:
- Info — the photo's IPTC metadata. Credit, copyright, source and date are read-only; you can edit headline, caption and keywords and save.
- Tag — manually assign a photo to a person/number/helmet/subject cluster (only the recognition types enabled on the album appear).
Editing an album
The pencil button in an album opens the Edit sheet to change its settings and workflow toggles. The QR button shows the album's shareable QR code (covered in Sharing).
