Instead, Evosus will automatically upload photos from the mobile app to Evosus Legacy Software 10 minutes from the tasks Departure time. This automatic process will obey your WiFi settings, meaning if your device is set up to only upload photos while connected to WiFi your photos may not upload 10 minutes after the tasks departure date instead the photos would be uploaded once your device connects to WiFi.

 

  • The green check mark no longer exists, because once pictures are uploaded they are removed from the upload queue.
