TAKE A PHOTO
While in PHOTO mode, you can switch to the front facing camera, enable the flash, and change the camera quality (high/medium/low). PHOTO mode also detects QR Codes. This will translate a QR code into a URL. The URL will be presented in an alert, giving you the option to cancel or open the web page with a browser.
RECORD VIDEO
While in VIDEO mode, you see options for flash, capture quality (High, Medium, Low), Frames Per Second (FPS), and the camera switch.
The capture quality selector will change the resolution of the video as it is being recorded. This is helpful when capturing long videos that may be challenging to share or backup later. We recommend High for short videos or when the quality is very important, Medium for videos up to 20 minutes, and Low for videos longer than 20 minutes. Please note, you will also have a quality option when you share the video but that is compressing the file that has already been captured. The purpose of the capture quality selector is to provide the flexibility to adjust the quality and resulting size of the file while it is on the device.
DOCUMENT SCANNING:
While in DOC mode, you can "scan" any paper document to PDF. Switch between Auto Capture and Manual Capture. After adding a page, you can preview it and adjust the Filter, Crop and Rotate, and make other adjustments to the scan. Tap + to add additional pages. When you are finished scanning all pages, tap Next to preview the document.
While previewing the document, you can rename the file, reorder the pages, and add additional pages. If you double-tap on a page you can annotate the page (drawing, arrows, text labels, etc.).
RECORD AUDIO
While in AUDIO mode, tap to record ambient audio. Tap on the thumbnail to play the audio back. From the playback screen you can trim the audio, rename the file, and share it.
EDIT/ANNOTATE PHOTOS OR DOCUMENT PAGES
To edit or annotate a photo, double-tap the thumbnail in the folder. To edit or annotate a document page, open the document and double-tap on the page you want to edit.
- Contrast, Brightness, & Saturation can be adjusted by sliding the ball left or right
- Rotate image clockwise to the desired orientation
- Crop the image by aligning the corners or pinch-to-zoom the photo
- Arrows can be added with color and size selections.
- Text labels can be added with color and size selections.
- Drawings can be added with color and size selections.
MEDIA INFO
When viewing photo, video, or audio media, you will notice a small circled "i" button. This is the Info button, which displays important information on the media asset.
- File Name: CAPTOR provides a default name for the media you capture, however the name can be changed here.
Username: Displays your username - Time/Date: Displays the time and date the media was captured.
- Location: Displays the GPS location where the photo or video was taken, based on the global location settings. You can override the global location by selecting an option here (City, Lat/Long, or Custom). Custom allows you to enter your own location data in the field above.
- Note: Enter up to 75 characters in this note field and it will display beneath the location data as well as be passed in the Exif metadata in a field labeled "User Comment"
SHARE FROM EDIT (SINGLE SHARE):
The Share button brings up a dialog box allowing you to share or export media. Your IT administrator may limit the applications with which you can share photos out of CAPTOR.
The Share button initiates a pop-up with the following options:
- File Format: Format options will be presented that correspond to the type of media you are attempting to share. For example, when sharing a photo you will be given the option of JPEG, PDF, and ZIP file formats.
- Quality/Resolution: Select between Low, Medium, and High resolution quality (the File Size Calculator will estimate the file size).
- Open In: Select the app where you would like to share the photo. Your IT administrator may limit the applications with which you can share photos out of CAPTOR.
FOLDERS:
The Folders button on the home screen brings up a list of folders. There are three default folders:
- Captured: All of your images and videos will originally go into this album. You can create additional folders by tapping the + button. Tap Edit to rename or delete a folder.
- Imported: This feature can be disabled by your IT Administrator. If enabled, you will be able to go into your native media galleries, select photos or videos, tap the Share icon, and select CAPTOR from the list of available apps to share the content to. This action will copy the media into the encrypted CAPTOR container.
- Trash: When you delete media, it is actually moved to the Trash folder. You can go into Trash and delete the items to permanently delete the content. Also, your IT Administrator can set a policy to automatically empty the Trash folder once content has been in the folder a specified number of days.
- Tap + to create a new folder.
Within a folder, you can delete or move media. A folder view controller button allows you to toggle between "thumbnail view" and "list view" and "full screen view".
The magnifying glass button allows you to Search for content. Enter a keyword to search across file names, folder names, text label annotations, and notes.
Tap one or more thumbnails, then tap Delete or Move. Double-tapping a thumbnail opens that media in the edit screen. You can also share select media(s) from the folder view.
If Backup is enabled, you may see a Backup button on the Folder screen. Pressing this will initiate a process to copy all new files to your backup drive. If the Backup is enabled but set to run automatically, you will not see the Backup button and the entire process will occur in the background.
SHARE FROM FOLDER (MULTI-SHARE):
The folder view sharing sequence is:
- Tap to select one or more thumbnails within a folder
- Tap the Share button

- Quality/Resolution: Select between Low, Medium, and High resolution quality
- Open In: Select the app where you would like to share the photo. Your IT administrator may limit the applications with which you can share media or documents out of CAPTOR.
