Before & After Photos

Before & after photos are a simple way to document treatment results, impress clients, and keep a visual history in the client record. Below is a quick guide to capturing, editing, and viewing photos in Appointible.

Taking Photos In Appointments

Photos can be linked directly to a specific appointment in the Appointible for Business mobile app. This keeps everything nicely organized by visit.

1. Open the Appointible for Business app
On the home screen, tap the appointment where the photos should be saved.

2. Tap Add photos
In the appointment details, tap the Add photos button. Then choose:

  • Take photos to use the device camera, or
  • Choose from library to upload existing images.

3. View photos in the appointment
After uploading, photos appear in the Photos section of the appointment details so they are always tied to that specific visit.

Editing Photo Details

After adding photos, it is helpful to mark which ones are before and which are after the treatment. This makes comparison much easier later.

1. Open the photo editor
In the appointment or client gallery, tap the photo, then tap the pencil icon at the top of the screen.

2. Set before or after

  1. Select whether the photo is taken Before or After the treatment.
  2. Add a short Description if helpful (for example: "Full face – day 1" or "Lash refill – 3 weeks").
  3. Tap Save to keep the changes.
  4. If a photo is not needed, tap Delete to remove it from the record.

Viewing Photos In Client Records (Mobile)

All photos from appointments are also available in the client gallery, so it is easy to see progress over time.

1. Open the client
In the mobile app, go to Clients and tap the client whose photos should be viewed.

2. Open the photo gallery
Open the Photos tab to see the full gallery.

3. See all provider photos
The client gallery shows photos from all service providers linked to that client. To add more images directly from the gallery, tap the plus (+) button, or tap Add photos at the bottom of the Information tab.

Viewing Photos On The Web

If a bigger screen is preferred for reviewing results side by side, photos can also be viewed in the web app.

1. Open Clients on the web
Log in to the web app and open Clients from the left side menu.

2. Open the client profile
Click the client whose photos should be reviewed.

3. Review the photo timeline
In the client details, open the Photos tab. All photos are listed with the newest at the top, making it easy to compare recent results with earlier visits.

4. Open a photo at full size
Click any photo to open it. The preview opens on the gallery image straight away and loads the full-size original behind it — a spinner shows while that is on its way, and the photo sharpens once it arrives. Very large photos may keep showing the gallery version instead.

5. Zoom in on the detail
Use Zoom in and Zoom out in the top-right corner of the photo, or scroll the mouse wheel over it. Once zoomed, drag the photo to move around it, and use Reset zoom to return to the full view. Moving to another photo with the arrow keys resets the zoom on its own.
