Home Screen Customization
On the home screen, you’ll find three buttons related to how you want to get the photos for counting. Most users only need to use one of these options for their typical workflow.
The three options are:
  • PHOTO: Use an existing photo (e.g., photos already saved on your device or from external sources)
  • CAMERA: Take a new photo using your device's camera
  • SAMPLE PHOTOS: Count using sample images. This is useful when first exploring the app but is typically not needed during regular operations

In Customize Your Screens, tap on Home Screen and you will see the following options:
  • Camera Button and Photos Button allow you to use your phone's camera to take photos and access your phone's gallery.
  • When switched On, the Count from Sample Photo option will show you a sample photo of items you can count with the selected Counting Template.
  • Show/Hide Photo confirm allows you to review photos you take before counting them.
  • Open camera automatically will open your camera automatically in the Home Screen when the toggle is switched On.
  • Offline Mode changes the operational mode to offline when the toggle is switched On.
  • Brand/Logo photo - If you are an OEM client, you can display your own Brand or Logo in the Home Screen by switching On this toggle.
Based on your needs or use case, you can enable/disable the settings in order to have an efficient counting process.
Prepare Screen Customization
The Prepare Screen is an optional step that appears after selecting or taking a photo but before starting the counting process. Many users don’t need the functionality of this screen, so you can choose to skip it to simplify the counting process and reduce the number of steps.
On the Prepare Screen, you can:
  • Define a Counting Area: Select the specific area of the photo where the app should count. If no area is defined, the app will count from the entire photo. You can also set the app to automatically expand the "Area" sub-menu to minimize the number of taps/clicks needed.
  • Fill in Forms: Input relevant data using a custom form that you can create within the app.
  • Use Tools for Editing and Measuring: Access tools for minor image editing or to set calibration information if you’re using the app for measurements.
If your workflow doesn’t require these features, you can customize the app to skip this screen entirely.

In the Review Screen, you can:
  • Basic Marker Editing Add, delete, or move markers before finalizing your count.
  • Advanced Marker Editing (Optional): Adjust marker sizes or reclassify objects when counting multiple types of items in the same photo.
