Uploading a single image via the phpFox iOS/Android app taking 30 to 60 seconds!

Dear John White,

We have a configuration on AdminCP>>> Apps >> Installed>>Photos >>User group setting:  [Maximum image width keeps in server]. This setting will affect to photo upload process in mobile apps. If image width user uploads higher than this value will crop to this value.  

>>> I think we can use this configuration to reduce the time to upload a photo on the mobile app.

By the way, servers are a big thing relate to the performance. So it is difficult to compare the performance of our Demo with Facebook. 

Best regards,

Hannah

Hi Hannah

Thanks for the feedback.

I am aware of the [Maximum image width keeps in server] setting. This resizing process however occurs on the server, not in the users brower or in the iOS/Android app.

If the resizing could be built to run in the users brower or in the iOS/Android app, then it would probably resolve the issue.

We already have a really powerful server so I am sure it is the upload time rather than the processing on the server that is slowing the process down. I have checked my EC2 instance during the upload and the maximum CPU utilisation did not even go above 6%. Therefore, our server does not seem to be the bottleneck.

It would be great if phpFox could investigate this in detail and come up with a solution.

Kind regards

John

It would make sense to have a feature that lets the app resize the image. 

Dear,

Thank you for your suggestion, we will add your suggestion to our review list so our technical team will research and consider to move it to our future upgrades.
