Simplicity and effortlessness are guiding principals for everything we build at Shelfgram. Whether you're browsing for insights at your desk or capturing content in the field, our goal is to make every action feel as seamless as possible. This month, we took a big step toward making store checks even smoother with a complete overhaul of our photo capture and upload flow on mobile.

We’ve removed unnecessary friction from the core store check experience. Previously, each photo had to be uploaded individually - a process that slowed down store checks. Now, photos taken during a visit are batched automatically and queued for upload at the end of your store check, letting you focus on capturing what matters.

Uploading has also been streamlined. To ensure photo quality and prevent accidental app closures, we previously locked the app on an upload screen until all photos were processed. While effective, it meant users were stuck waiting. Now, our new improvements mean that uploads happen silently in the background, so you're free to continue using the app however you'd like. A subtle progress bar below the header keeps you updated on the status of your upload without disrupting your workflow.

This month, we’re doubling down on collaboration, making it easier than ever to work with your team on Shelfgram. Previously, when you've wanted to get extra eyes on a collection you're curating, you'd need to send share links to your colleagues. However, this would only let them view your collection - meaning that any extra content they wanted to suggest would have to be shared back to you. We've now added a Collaborative Collections feature, allowing you to invite your team to any collection to help you add photos and grow it faster than ever.

On any collection, you'll see a new button allowing you to add and manage collaborators. You can search through your team and add colleagues them right from this widget. Like any other collection, once you've added the photos you want, you can export as slides for a deck, generate word clouds to look for common themes, and more. Whether you're tracking a trend, preparing insights for a presentation, or organizing competitive intelligence, it's better together.
