Weekly Recap: More PhotoTag Power + Capture App Upgrades 🏷️📱

Hey there, photo friends!

We’ve got more PhotoTag goodness this week, along with some handy Capture App improvements and small workflow wins. Here’s what’s new:

‍

🏷️More Ways to Use PhotoTags in the Dashboard

‍

  • • Assign PhotoTags to Participants right from the Participant Details page
  • • See PhotoTag images on the Participant Details page for quick reference
  • • Filter Participants by PhotoTag from the Participant List page
  • • PhotoTags now appear on Scan Cards—assigned tags will print right under the participant’s name
  • • Participant galleries on retail now include group photos from their assigned PhotoTags

đź“‹Smoother Roster & Participant Management

‍

  • • Contacts created via scan cards, rosters, Tap-A-Face, or generic check-in are now fully editable like normal participants—no more “blank” contacts
  • • Roster uploads no longer require you to manually remove parentheses in your files (one less cleanup step!)

📱Capture App 4.20.2 Highlights

‍

  • • Use cellular while connected to CamFi or Canon Wi-Fi (great for maintaining uploads while tethered)
  • • Force cellular use via the Resources page if needed
  • • App badge now shows the number of unuploaded images
  • • Sort and filter by PhotoTag in Name Lookup to speed up team or group sessions
  • • New UI improvements, including:
    • • Fullscreen card scan popup on iPhone
    • • New “Choose Participant” popup design
    • • Native iOS-style dropdowns and toggle switches for a cleaner, faster feel

🖼️Small Retail Site Improvements

‍

  • • When cropping an image with a background selected, the cropper now shows the background so you can see exactly how it will look
  • • Jersey Jotter filter combos are now inclusive—meaning “Black + 0” will only show black jerseys with the number 0, not all black jerseys or all 0 jerseys

‍

That’s it for this week!

‍

Lots of small changes adding up to smoother workflows and better gallery organization. 🏆

‍

Keep being amazing,

Candy 🍬

NowCandid's Microsoft App: Out Now!

3
 minutes read

New features you'll find in the app:

  • Supports several new Nikon and Canon models that the previous NOW Candid app did not
  • Customizable App Passcode - ensures you are uploading directly to events in your account & is protected from other user's image uploads
  • New modern design for ease of use
  • More event information now available right from the tablet when logged in
  • Choose between dark or light mode (dark mode looks pretty slick! Try it out!)
  • Added button in settings that instantly pulls up the image hot folder
  • Easier installation and less issues with Window Defender
  • Smarter log out protocols (warnings if all images have not been uploaded)
  • "Upload from SD card" to manually add all images from an SD card to an event.
  • Useful if a camera was not connected to a tablet when images were shot, this provides another way to manually upload
  • OR if you had a second photographer on site without a tablet, they could upload their images through a tablet/laptop before leaving the event

How to uninstall the previous version of the app:

If you have previous versions of the Party Pics® Now app or Now Candid app installed on your device, you will want to uninstall them. Make sure all data and images from any previous events have been transferred prior to uninstalling.

1. Navigate to "Add or remove programs"

2. Search for NowCandid to uninstall

    a. This can be done for "Party Pics Now" or SNAP as well

How to install the new version of the NowCandid app:

You can install the new app by going directly to the Microsoft App Store using this direct link: www.microsoft.com/store/apps. Alternatively,  you can find a link to the store on NowCandid.com/download (must be logged into account to access this page).

How to find your App Passcode to log in on the new tablet:

1. Log in to your account on NowCandid.com

2. Click on App Settings

3. Find or change your App Passcode

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.

  • List One
  • List Two
  • List Three
  • List Four
  • List Five
