[image] cf125: the app starts Uploading observations which I have stored on my phone but which I have deliberately not uploaded (because it is a poor photo, or a duplicate). i don’t totally understand your issue. you can toggle off the setting to automatically sync your observations, but at t…

The setting for automatic uploads has definitley been switched Off for over a year, since soon after I started using Inaturalist. It was definitely Off on 14 May and 18 September.

[image] cf125: This only happens when Inaturalist has been hanging, after which I have to Close it and Restart it. okay. so your report is basically the same as: https://forum.inaturalist.org/t/incorrect-sync-after-app-crash/44651 , right?

you could load the files to some sort of cloud share (ex. Google Drive, Microsoft OneDrive, Apple iCloud, Dropbox, etc.) and then e-mail iNat staff a link that will give them rights to view those files.

Yes, this sounds like a good plan, the address is [image] pisum: help@inaturalist.org
