Adding photos to a vehicle or service report

A photo says more than a note ever will — a cracked fairing, a worn tire, a part that's about to let go. Team Garage supports one profile photo per vehicle, plus a full photo gallery on every service report.

Adding one

• Vehicle photo — edit the vehicle and tap the square photo tile at the top of the form (Add photo, or Replace photo once there is one).
• Service report photos — expand a report and tap Add photos, or use the Photos section while adding or editing the report.

The owner, coaches, and mechanics can add photos; if the owner limits mechanics to their assigned drivers, a mechanic can only add them for those drivers' vehicles. Photos are visible to everyone with access to that vehicle or report, including the connected driver.

What happens to a photo

• It's re-encoded as a JPEG and capped around 8MB.
• EXIF and GPS data are stripped automatically, so a photo never leaks where — or on whose phone — it was taken.

Plan around this

You need a live connection to add or view photos. They're fetched fresh each time rather than cached for offline viewing — don't count on pulling up a vehicle or service report photo trackside with no signal.

When a Team is permanently purged — 90 days after it's archived, or when the owner's account deletion completes — its vehicle and service report photos are deleted along with it. See Log a service report for what else goes on a report.
