Overview
For stronger data integrity, FieldPie can prevent users from uploading photos out of their device gallery, so images must be taken live during the visit instead. This single toggle in Settings enforces that photos are genuinely captured on site rather than selected from old files. It is a useful control when authentic, in-the-moment evidence matters.
