If you upload a photo while offline or with poor connectivity, Flippd queues it locally and syncs it automatically when your connection is restored.
How It Works
You add or update a photo on an inventory item
If the upload fails due to connectivity issues, the photo is saved to a local queue
When your internet connection is restored, Flippd automatically uploads the photo in the background
Once the upload completes, the item is updated with the new photo
Pending Upload Indicator
Items with photos waiting to sync show a status badge so you can see at a glance which items have pending uploads.
Retry Behavior
Failed uploads retry automatically, up to 10 times
You can also manually retry a pending upload from the item detail screen
If all automatic retries fail, the photo remains in the queue for manual retry
Good to Know
Up to 50 pending uploads can be stored at a time
The upload queue survives app restarts -- your photos won't be lost if you close the app
If you upload a new photo for an item that already has a pending upload, the new photo replaces the pending one
Uploads resume automatically when connectivity improves -- no action needed from you
