Study notes can include a photo alongside your written or audio reflection. This is useful for attaching a journal page, a photograph that connects to the passage, a map, a quote you photographed, or anything else meaningful to your family.
How to attach a photo
- Open the Study Note Editor for any verse (tap the verse in Listen, then tap Add Note or open an existing note to edit).
- Tap the photo icon or the image upload area in the editor.
- Choose a file from your device — your camera roll, photo library, or file browser.
- A preview of the image appears in the editor before you save.
- Add any written text you want alongside it, then tap Save.
A note can contain a photo on its own, with no written text required. You can also combine a photo with written text, a voice note, or both.
What your family sees
When your note is shared with the family, the photo displays inline in the note card — family members can tap it to view it full size. No separate download or link required.
Replacing or removing a photo
Open the note for editing. The current photo is shown in the editor.
| Action | How |
|---|---|
| Replace | Tap the image upload area again and choose a new file. The old photo is replaced when you save. |
| Remove | Tap the × button on the photo preview to clear it before saving. |
If you close the editor without saving, no changes are made.
Tips
- Most common image formats work: JPEG, PNG, HEIC, and WebP.
- Very large files (from a high-resolution camera) will upload fine but may take a moment on a slow connection. Cropping or reducing resolution beforehand speeds things up.
- Screenshots from a Bible app, commentary, or devotional are a great way to add context to a verse note.
- Photos stay stored securely in your family's library and are not visible to anyone outside your family.
