Can I attach a photo to a client profile?

[Complexions]

2 questions:

1) I am in the beauty industry and it would be really helpful to be able to upload a photo to a client profile.  Can this be done?

2) Is there a better way of kepping client notes on file other than "Appointment notes"?

Good afternoon, @Complexions!

Thanks for bringing this up. Update: You can add an image to a Customer profile by tapping Add File.

Regarding your second question, you can add client notes to your customer profile by heading to your Directory tab > select customer > Edit > Edit Customer > add notes to the "Other" section > Save. Does that help?

I can certainly see how the photo option would be helpful for many businesses. Rest assured that I'll be sharing your post with our Appointments team. Keep in touch for updates, and let us know if you ever have any other questions.

This reply was created from merging an existing thread: suggestion for a future square update

I am a hairstylist, and I have been using square for years. (I love it!!) For the last 5 years have been a suite owner, and I use appointments and the square stand.

I have a suggestion for square to allow us in our notes on our clients/customers, to be able to insert a photo. Be it of our client or a photo of a haircut. It would be great to have such an option, so we can look back and reference either that customer, or a favorite haircut they would like repeated. Just a space in our notes that can remain private for us stylists too look back at for reference.

I am sure many of our beauty professionals would love this option!

Thanks!

Thank you @HDBT! You can add a photo to a customer's profile but the way it the photo is saved might not be exactly what you're looking for.

Here's how to add an image to a profile:

1. Open the Customers section of your Appointments app.
2. Tap a customer's name to open their profile > scroll down.
3. Tap Add File  > tap Take a photo/Upload a photo.

When you upload the photo you'll see the file name - and you can tap on the file name to view the photo again. 

Take a look and let me know if this helps or if you have any other suggestions! Happy to help.

Hey @maneonparkave!

What exactly is happening when you try to follow @Helen's instructions?

I know you cannot add a customer photo, but does anyone else have any ways around that?

Most sellers use the Add File feature in the Customer Directory to upload an image file. @pinkmedspa

I moved you to a thread that will help
