Right now Enlarge photo… is not very good (better than nothing though).

I have plenty of use cases where you really need to zoom in on even the enlarged photo to be able to read a number (code), read text (e.g. PDF instructions on how to use a test kit), etc.

This would be ‘expected functionality’ - and so right now I would consider the current functionality to be ok-poor. But maybe easy to improve!!

Thanks!

You can already do that (enlarge image, then zoom)…

That was using the desktop app, also works fine on IOS. No idea about android.

Ah, I should be using my app like a 6 year old, and just try things out more 🙂
