How to manage photos in StalliQ: Open the horse profile and select the "Gallery" tab. You'll see all photos as a grid - tap a photo to open the full-screen viewer; swipe to move to the next or previous photo. Use the "Add photo" button to upload a new photo and assign tags (e.g. training, competition, health). Photos can be set as the profile picture or saved to your device's gallery.
How do I upload photos?
In the Gallery tab, tap the "Add photo" button at the top (when the gallery is empty, you'll find the same button centered in the image area). Pick a photo from the camera or your device storage. Optionally, you can:
- Assign tags - e.g. training, competition, trail ride, grooming, health, daily life, development
- Caption - A short text for the photo
Tap "Save". The photo appears in the grid. Each tile shows the date and time the photo was taken.
Which tags are available?
StalliQ offers predefined tags:
- Training - Riding lessons, dressage, jumping
- Competition - Competition photos
- Trail ride - Cross-country and hacks
- Grooming - Brushing, mane, hoof
- Health - Wounds, swelling, healing progress
- Daily life - Paddock, stall, walks
- Development - Growth and change over time
In addition, there are system tags that are assigned automatically:
- Diary - Photos from diary entries
- Symptom - Photos from symptom documentation
System tags cannot be added or removed manually - they are managed automatically.
How does the full-screen viewer work?
Tap a photo in the grid. The viewer opens with:
- Swipe - To swipe to the next/previous photo
- Date and time - Shown below the photo
- Caption - If assigned, below the photo
Via the menu icon at the top right (or by long-pressing the photo), you have the following options:
- Save to device gallery - Saves the photo to your smartphone's photo library
- Description - Opens a field where you edit both the caption and the tags
- Set as profile picture - The photo becomes your horse's avatar
- Delete - Remove the photo permanently
How do I filter photos by tags?
Above the grid you'll find tag filters as chips. Tap a tag (e.g. "Training") to see only photos with that tag. Tap again or tap "All" to clear the filter.
Frequently asked questions
Are photos from the diary shown automatically in the StalliQ gallery?
Yes. Every photo you add to a diary entry is automatically saved in the gallery and tagged with the system tag "Diary" plus an automatic caption (activity + date). If you change the diary photo or delete the entry, the gallery item is removed as well.
Can my horse sharer see photos in the gallery in StalliQ?
Yes, if you've granted that role the gallery permission (read). By default, most roles can view the gallery. Write access (uploading photos) requires a separate permission.
How many photos can I upload in StalliQ?
There's no limit. All photos are compressed and stored in the cloud. With a very large number of photos, the initial loading may take a bit longer.
Can I set a photo from the gallery as the profile picture in StalliQ?
Yes. Open the photo in the full-screen viewer and select "Set as profile picture" from the menu. The photo is immediately shown as your horse's avatar in the horse list and in the profile.
