Mobile albums

Albums organize your job photos into named folders. Find what you need in one tap and share an entire folder with a customer or colleague as a single link. This article covers adding photos to an album, sharing albums, removing photos, and annotating album photos, all from the Zuper mobile app.

​

Before you begin

• Roofing accounts include six default albums. For all other account types, your admin creates albums in Settings > Modules > Jobs > Gallery Settings. The Albums tab appears in the mobile gallery as soon as at least one album exists.
• Sharing via text message requires a Zuper Connect subscription. The Text tab is available to Zuper Connect subscribers only — contact your admin to confirm whether it is included in your plan.

Adding photos to an album

3. Tap Share to share the album immediately or tap Copy Link to copy the album link to your clipboard.

​

Use this method when you want to capture a new photo or add a photo from the job gallery directly into a specific album.

1. Open the gallery and tap the Albums tab.
2. Tap the album you want to add photos to. The album detail screen opens.
3. Tap the (+) button at the bottom right of the screen. A sub-menu appears with two options:

You can annotate any photo inside an album the same way you annotate photos in the job gallery.

1. Open the album and tap a photo to open it in the full-screen viewer.
2. Use the annotation tools to draw, mark up, or highlight areas of the photo.
3. Save your annotations.
