Yep, I use it for action camera uploads - it is overkill, in my opinion, to have to use a whole computer to upload a few photos which are already on a device that is capable of connecting to the internet and using Mapillary APIs.
I’ve seen multiple homebrew Android apps for upload from camera roll, so I think you and I can both agree this is a valid use case that is not supported

Hi @4004 - noted for the roadmap! Note that it should also be technically possible to install mapillary_tools on an Android phone if you want to try that as another workaround. Here is the documentation and forum thread.

Thanks. Sadly, I have iOS on the main devices. Was thinking of setting up a small box running Linux or Windows for that purpose, but then that’s not really a mobile workflow…
Previously there was the theoretical possibility of using the web uploader (although I reported that it didn’t retain coords in exif), so I guess even a basic one page upload page would be more useful to me than the current app workflow

I see, thanks again for the feedback 4004. On iOS uploading is actually a little bit challenging because Apple restricts background operations, so you have to have the Mapillary app opened and in the foreground for uploads to succeed. The desktop uploader doesn’t have that restriction, so while it is a bit of friction, it may still be something to consider. We have noted your feature request for the future!

First - big thanks to the devs for (mostly) returning the manual mode. Ever since spotting it being back, I’ve partially resumed using the app 
After using it for quite some time, I’ve noticed that the separate buttons do not seem to work as well, though. I often hit the automatic capture button first both because it is more prominent, and because it is easier to reach.
From the UX perspective, the previous approach where there was a toggle which changed the behaviour of the single capture button (which then changed the icon, as far as I recall) was much more convenient and less error-inducing. If there’s a chance to bring that back, it would further improve image quantity and quality.
