How to create an activity #

Using your own photos #
If you are using your own photos. You can do this by pressing the PICTURE icon.

“Upload Image from Gallery”
or “Choose from Unsplash.”
If you use your own photos, choose “Upload Image from Gallery.”
If you choose to upload your own photos, you must give our App permission to access this. Under the iPhone, you can select the type of privacy permission you want to provide us. Choose whatever you feel comfortable with, but you will have different settings in the App depending on your choice.
If you have given the canXsee app a limited number of the selected photos you will be asked to “Manage” what photos you would like to place on the App.
You will be then asked to “Select more photos, which will give you the option of selecting the photo you want to place on the App.
Once you choose the photo you want, this will come up in your ‘Recents’ photos. Select ‘Recent’.
This will open a new screen where you can individually choose to upload these photos to the App.
Click on the photo you want and press “Choose” in orange.
Once the photo has been uploaded, you will see the photo in “Activity Information”.
