‍

4. Metadata Preservation in Web Dashboard 🗂️

‍

We've made an important update regarding image metadata:

‍

  • No More Stripping: The web dashboard no longer removes metadata from images.

  • Future Features: This change sets the stage for more exciting features down the line.

‍

Keep all your valuable image information intact!

We've improved the Selfie Check-In experience for your participants:

‍

  • Additional Contact Always Visible: The "Additional Contact" field now appears at all times.‍
    • Why It Matters: It's helpful for gathering parent or additional contact information.
  • Camera Roll Uploads for SportsPics: Participants can now upload an image from their camera roll as an alternative to taking a selfie.
    • Perfect For: Parents can easily check in using a photo of their child.

We've made a helpful tweak for managing participant data:

‍

  • Merged Participants: If participants merge by having the same phone number, you'll now see all their reference images on their details page.
