The original problem is fixed, though while I was on the beta I noticed a few other issues which I emailed to @Alex on 10/20/20 along with a video of the “photo deletion issue”
This is what I wrote in that email:
An update on the beta testing,
Overall seems to run smoothly, though I did notice a few issues today,
It crashed while it was trying to load the photo library while in the field today, when I reopened the app it loaded to the point where it crashed and I was able to continue.
Loading of the photos library does tend to be a tad slow (10-30 seconds)
This just started happening in the last hour or so and it may be related to a new topic on the android app. It won’t let me delete photos from an observation, (it lets you delete it, but it doesn’t save to the database) Video below.
Of note I haven’t experienced issue #1 again but issues #2-#3 are constants (the amount of time it takes to load the library can be quite a pain when uploading 60ish observations because it takes much longer to go thru the process), there some other weird issues related to the managing photos with in past observations within the app too. But they are quite sporadic, and hard to reproduce exactly.
