I find wierd that the Android app is saving the picture in the directoy: This PC\OnePlus 8T\Internal shared storage\DCIM

I believe there are better space to claim in a phone than the DCIM directory.

At least create a directory inside DCIM called iNaturalis_photos

@budowski, can we create a new directory in DCIM? If so, I support adding our photos to an "iNaturalist" directory.

@francesco1119, in the future, please make feature requests in the Forum: https://forum.inaturalist.org. We generally use Github issues for work that is ready for developers.

Sorry, do you want me to migrate it to a feature request in the Forum ?

budowski commented 1 year ago

@kueda - technically speaking, we could create a new sub folder there: https://github.com/inaturalist/iNaturalistAndroid/blob/main/iNaturalist/src/main/java/org/inaturalist/android/ImageUtils.java#L667

@francesco1119 no need for this one, but please try and do that for future feature requests.

@budowski cool, if/when you need another Android native issue, I think it would be good to store photos in a sub folder called iNaturalist.
