Rapid Photo Usage Guide

Logging In/Out

On the first launch of Rapid Photo, enter your Facebook username and password to verify your account.  Facebook will then present a dialog asking for additional permissions.  Accepting this dialog will cause uploaded photos to become immediately posted.  Declining the dialog will still allow uploading of the photos, but they will need to be approved before they can be viewed by anyone else.  These two dialogs are only shown on the first run or upon logging out of the Facebook account (the button at the bottom of the screen).

Configuration Options

The app can be configured by going to the iPhone OS Settings application.  Scroll down to the application settings and select Rapid Photo.  Both the delay between photos and the total number of photos to take can be configured in this interface.  For the delay, a delay of less than 3 seconds may cause the camera to drop some photos.  This happens as the hardware cannot keep up with the requests.  In testing on an iPhone 3GS, dropped photos were rare when using a delay of 2 seconds and capturing 8 photos.  Additionally, for the first photo taken the delay is always 3 seconds.

Exiting the Application

In order to ensure successful upload of all photos, wait until the pinwheel in the top right corner of the screen stops spinning before closing the app.
