Efficient ways to upload bulk observations

Right now my focus is on taking photos from mobile devices, using Apple or Android, and how to get them from the camera to the upload box, without losing image metadata. Something that can be easily explained (or has been easily explained) and implemented by newer users.
Bulk = 10 to 60+ observations

It if were just 10 observations from preexisting photos, I’d probably use the app to create the observations one by one. But for 60:

I suspect the best method is getting them accessible on a PC where they can just be dragged and dropped in. The technicalities of getting them there are where problems probably occur.
In particular, I think there’s a way to access mobile phone files on a PC, but I haven’t looked that much into it.

Definitely depends on the phone and system or file sharing apps. For Android it’s pretty simple to connect to a PC with a USB cable, allow file transfer, and drag/drop photos. They’re usually stored within a folder called DCIM.
