Progress photos give you a visual record of a client's changes to set beside their weight and measurements. Your client can add photos, you can add them too, and either of you can compare any two side by side. This article covers adding and comparing photos, the client setting, and what you can and can't delete.
Open a client's progress photos
Open the client, then open their menu and tap 'Progress photos'. The gallery shows every photo of that client, whoever added it, grouped by month with the newest first.
Tap a pose at the top to show only Front, Side, Back or Other.
Add photos for a client
You can always add photos, whatever the client's setting. This is useful when you take photos at an in-person check-in.
- Tap the plus button in the client's 'Progress photos'.
- Tap 'Take photo' or 'Choose from library'. You can add up to four photos at a time.
- Choose the pose, check the 'Date taken' and add a note if you like. Notes can be up to 280 characters.
- Tap 'Add photos'.
Your client gets a notification, and the photos show 'Added by your coach' in their gallery. You need a connection to add photos.
Compare photos
Tap a photo to open it. Swipe to move between photos, and pinch or double-tap to zoom.
To compare two photos, tap the compare button at the top right. Tap 'Before' or 'After', then pick a photo from the strip at the bottom for that side. Filtering by pose first makes it easier to compare like with like.
Photos you've already opened still show when you're offline.
Turn progress photos on or off for a client
Progress photos are on for clients by default. To change this, open the client's menu, tap 'Manage' followed by their name, and use the 'Progress photos' switch under Preferences. If it's off, the client's gallery tells you so and shows an 'Enable' button that takes you there.
When it's off, the client can't add new photos and the shortcut is hidden from their Home screen. The photos already there are kept, and you can still view them and add your own.
Notifications
You get a notification when a client adds progress photos. You can turn this off in 'Manage account' > 'Notifications' under 'Progress photos'.
Deleting photos
- You can delete photos you added. Press and hold a photo in the gallery, or open it and tap delete.
- You can't delete photos your client added. Only the client can.
- Your client can delete any photo of themselves, including ones you added.
Deleting a photo removes it for both of you. You can't undo this.
Privacy
Progress photos are private. Only the client and their current coach can see them.
- Photos are resized on the phone before they upload, and location and camera details are removed.
- If a client moves to another coach, the new coach can see their photos and you no longer can.
- If a client deletes their account, their photos are deleted with it.
Only take or add photos with your client's agreement. Our Privacy Policy explains how we handle health information like this.
