Upload multiple image directly from camera roll

Hi everyone.
I'm creating an app that we will use in a technical-commercial company. One of the functions that users require is to be able to create a photographic archive of the various technical interventions.

Apart from the data architecture which I already have a very clear idea of โ€‹โ€‹how to develop, I am concerned about a sore point of appsheet: uploading photos from the device's camera roll.

I've read several articles that recommend setting forms that reopen automatically etc... but I'm looking for something that selects multiple photos at once and loads them (as I think many other users do).

I know it's not possible to do this on Appsheet, but I was wondering if anyone knows of alternative methods that allow this, and that can be integrated or communicated in some way with Appsheet to achieve this.

Could the simplest alternative be to upload files directly to Google Drive? For example, how would it be possible to maintain a well-organized archive divided for each customer and for each technical intervention?

the key point remains convenience for the user, because often the user is not very "computerized" and would tend to abandon the system considering it too complex.

I don't evaluate systems that completely abandon appsheet because I already have several projects in development and all connected to each other that use this platform.

Thanks to anyone who wants to share their ideas and experiences.

I haven't tested, but it COULD be possible with the partition where each customer have their own Drive folder set as a table and then all images would be individual records. Though that solution needs Enterprise subscription if it works.

Can you explain better what you mean?
It seems interesting to me and I currently have an enterprise subscription

You can add a table that uses your Drive folder as a source. All files in that folder are records in the app. Read how the partition works from the documentation and test if that approach works.
