"A smartphone with a camera is needed to capture photos onsite". That's funny. Which smartphones don't have cameras? So maybe WITH means "In conjunction with" - making 2 separate devices. In which case, you're all set to go! Also, it's good that they've pointed out capturing photos ON SITE rather than trying to get those gas station pics once you've returned home. Oh, Ipsos. Bless their hearts!

French Farmer - those $14 fees are “Darkness Preferred’ shops…a $1.50 “bonus” for nighttime, rather than the $5 they used to offer. They do not, however, *require* nighttime just yet. You can turn them in as a daytime shop.
I have to admit, I don’t know how you do many shops a day using the method you described…can you do 8-10 a day with the camera method?
Well, I always thought that was true, but ran across this issue with another MSC. I did my shops at 1:30 pm, and took the required photos with my smartphone. I emailed them to my laptop email and when I got home, I opened them up and saved them with the proper filename. Lo and behold, when the MSC Editor looked at them....the TIME on the photo was the time I had opened them on my laptop and gave them their filenames...the photos didn't have the metadata time any longer on them of the actual time I took the photos!! I still had them on my phone but was reporting from my laptop. I explained all this to the editor and the shop went through fine. But this may be another factor to consider when transferring photos from smartphone to laptop!@ColoKate63 wrote:
Smartphones have embedded metadata in their photos. QC editors can check the metadata in each photo for location and time - and correlate to when the shopper claims to be on-site.
I wasn't speaking about gas shops...I don't do those. This was a Cricket Wireless audit, and only had a few photos. I don't have an iPhone...I have an Android with OS11 on it, so that's up to date. Not sure what you mean by "airdrop"....is that an iPhone thing?@Mousegal wrote:
Guysmom - I airdrop the photos, ihpone to iPad, sort pics into albums by shop, and it takes no time to do the reports. With airdrop, all the metadata transfers with the pic.
I tried using a laptop a few times to do gas station reports…ugh. Adding the photos takes me twice as long on the laptop as with the touchscreen on the iPad. Since we do a minimum of 8-10 stations a day, I have had to find the fastest method that works for us to get reports in.
