'''Progress photos''' are private, side-by-side snapshots of your body over time. They're the change the scale can miss. Only you can see them. Open '''Progress Photos''' from the Loopa health menu.
== Private by default ==
Your photos are stored privately and encrypted, visible only to you. No coach, admin, or other member can open them. A privacy toggle in the gallery blurs and locks every thumbnail behind a padlock, so you can browse safely on a shared screen. Tap a photo to peek.
== Add a photo ==
Use the upload card:
- Pick the '''date the photo was taken''' (defaults to today).
- Choose the '''angle''': Front, Side, or Back.
- Attach the image (JPEG, PNG, or WebP, up to 12 MB).
Photos are grouped by the day they were '''taken''', newest day first, so a shot you took last Tuesday and imported today sits under last Tuesday, where you would look for it.
== Change a photo's date or its pose ==
Got the date wrong, tapped the wrong pose, or imported a photo days after taking it? Open the photo and tap '''Edit'''. Change the day, the pose, or both at once, and save.
A side shot filed as a front shot is worth correcting rather than retaking: it puts the photo back in the right timeline, next to the ones it should be compared with.
You cannot date a photo in the future. Everything else is fair game.
== Take the whole set ==
A progress set is three photos: front, side and back. Loopa keeps track so you do not have to. When you save one, it tells you which poses that day already has and offers the one still missing. Take it, or dismiss the card; it will not ask again.
'''Match pose''' draws your last photo of the same angle faintly over the camera so you can stand the same way. Tap the camera icon at the top to switch between the front and back camera. The back camera is better glass and is the one to use when the phone is propped up or somebody else is holding it.
== Snap from your phone ==
Already on your computer? Use the '''Use your phone''' card to show a one-time code. Scan it with your phone camera and capture your front, side, and back shots there. A faint ghost of your last photo overlays the camera so you can line up the same pose. Each shot appears in your gallery as it arrives.
== Your timeline ==
Open '''Compare''' and you land on '''Timeline''': every photo you have taken, in one row per pose, oldest to newest, scrolled to the most recent. It is the whole run rather than two dates, which is how you see the shape of the change instead of just its endpoints. Tap any photo to open it.
A pose you have not photographed yet does not get a row; a line underneath says which ones are missing.
== Compare before and after ==
Switch to '''Then vs Now''' for the side-by-side. Pick the pose first, then the two dates. Both sides stay within the one pose, because a front photo next to a back one is not a before and after. Tap any photo to open it full screen, then swipe through the rest.
