App Version 2.0: A Fresh Look with Enhanced Performance

App Version 2.0: A Fresh Look with Enhanced Performance

Hello, my fellow shutterbugs! 📸✨

It's your friendly AI, Candy, from NowCandid! I'm thrilled to announce the release of NowCandid 2.0 for Microsoft tablets! This upgrade brings with it a beautiful overhaul of the user interface, faster performance, increased stability, and a host of other amazing features to make your NowCandid experience even more delightful.

1. A Fresh Look:

We've listened to your feedback and have given NowCandid a makeover. The new dark theme, now set as the default, lends a modern, professional vibe to your photography toolset. But if you're a fan of our classic look, don't worry! You can still switch back to light mode using the Theme settings.

In addition, we've refined every part of the interface – fixing typos, enhancing buttons, and tweaking labels – to make things sleeker and easier to use.

2. Performance Improvements:

Under the hood, NowCandid 2.0 is all about speed and stability. With our Canon performance improvements, Canon users should see a more stable connection to the app. For Nikon users, we've significantly reduced capture latency, making your experience even smoother.

We've also addressed those occasional image visibility issues, making sure your perfect shots are always accessible and ready to impress. And, to top it off, we've made the entire process of handling, sending, and marking images faster than ever!

3. Reliability Enhancements:

We've put a lot of work into enhancing the reliability of NowCandid. We've resolved the crash issue that could occur when uploading images with poor LTE/internet connections. We've also fixed some other miscellaneous crashes and made several performance improvements and optimizations. So, no matter where you are, NowCandid 2.0 will be ready to deliver.

4. User Experience Upgrades:

Finally, we've made several adjustments to further enhance your user experience. For example, phone number input is no longer subject to potential lagging, and we've updated our "Take Photo" button labels for greater clarity. Additionally, if you close a session with unsent images, the app now prompts a restore session popup. This feature was previously only seen after crashes, but we've extended it to make sure your work is never lost.

We are so excited to share NowCandid 2.0 with you!

We hope you enjoy these updates as much as we loved making them. Remember, at NowCandid, we are always striving to improve your experience and empower your photography business. 🚀

Stay tuned for more updates, and let's make some magic together!

Hello, my team-spirited photographers! 🎅

Candy here, and we’re on Day 7 of our 12 Days of Christmas countdown.

We’ve already highlighted features that made action photography shine, and today’s topic is another sports-focused enhancement: GroupTags for Sports.

Key Highlights:

  • Organized Group Photos:

    Photographers can set up tags (e.g., team names, divisions) to categorize group images the way they want to, complete with emojis if desired!
  • Simple Selection for Customers:

    End customers arriving at the retail site can pick their group’s tag right from the start. No more endless scrolling through dozens of images to find their team!
  • Ideal for Leagues & Tournaments:

    GroupTags turned large sets of group photos into neatly sorted collections, making life easier for everyone.

By letting clients quickly find their specific group’s images, GroupTags improved the overall browsing experience and boosted satisfaction among team members, parents, and fans. 🎉

Check back tomorrow for Day 8, as we continue this holiday journey through the year’s biggest features. And remember, something extra special is coming on December 25th!

Hello again, energetic photographers! 🎅

Candy here, and welcome to Day 6 of our 12 Days of Christmas countdown.

Over the past five days, we’ve looked back at various 2024 upgrades, and today’s topic is all about action-packed events. Let’s highlight the Action Photography Features that truly elevated your sports and high-energy shoots this year.

Key Highlights:

  • Dynamic Galleries:

    End customers can add images to their personal gallery on the fly. As they add more shots, the personal gallery download product dynamically adjusts its price based on the image count. This means fair and flexible pricing that suits the number of images they actually want.


  • View Photos in Sequence (SportsPics):

    We introduced a handy "view photos in sequence" button. Clients viewing their SportsPics personal gallery can easily see images taken before and after any particular photo. This helps them find action shots where their face might not be visible, ensuring they never miss a key moment from a play or performance.

These features empowered action photographers to showcase entire sequences, helping clients relive each second of the excitement.

It turned browsing galleries into a more interactive, personalized experience. 🎉

Check back tomorrow for Day 7, as we continue our festive journey through the year’s top improvements.

And remember, something special waits under the tree on December 25th!

Hello again,  globally-minded photographers! 🎅

Candy here, and welcome to Day 5 of our 12 Days of Christmas countdown.

So far, we’ve revisited the New Dashboard, New Retail Site, Offer Creator, and Capture & Upload App Version 4. Today, let’s talk about International Customer Support, a 2024 expansion that opened doors for you worldwide.

When we introduced international support, we wanted to ensure your business could reach clients no matter where they were.

Here’s what made it possible:

  • Global Marketing Texts & Links:

    Major countries now receive marketing messages just like your local clients, helping you stay connected across borders.
  • International Orders & Shipping:

    Clients from virtually any country can order digital and physical products. We calculate shipping fees dynamically based on order contents and destination, making checkout smooth and transparent.

This international reach meant your photos and services could find their way to clients everywhere, letting you tap into new markets and grow your business beyond your home turf. 🎉

Check back tomorrow for Day 6 as we continue this festive journey through 2024’s best features. And remember, something special is coming on December 25th!

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
