EGNYTE's Photo Upload Widget - for Android Devices Only
For those who take a lot of pictures for work, the Photo Upload Widget for Android can be a option for time savings and picture organization.
Photos taken with the widget are automatically uploaded to a folder on Egnyte. The app defaults to storing widget pictures taken to your private/personal folder, Z:\Private\yourusername\Auto-Photo Uploads
The widget performs like a photo reel, ensuring all photos are collected and stored to the Egnyte server without the need to specify a location when taking each photo. In addition, if there is no internet connection on your device, the widget will handle the uploads once connectivity is restored. Additionally, pictures taken through the widget are not stored locally on the phone, eliminating the need for later deletion.
Later, when you are accessing Egnyte via your computer, you navigate to your Auto-Photo Uploads folder and rename, move or copy files to another Egnyte location.
