How do I capture a photo or document with Snap in Vozzle?
Hold the Speak button and choose Snap. Point the camera at a receipt, business card, or document and tap Capture, then tap Process. Vozzle reads the image, pulls out the key information, and files it for you as a note, task, or event depending on what it finds, with an Undo option in case you want to back out.
Here's how
Hold Speak, tap Snap
Press and hold the Speak button to open the capture menu, then choose Snap to open the media view (titled Media Upload) — it skips dictation entirely and goes straight to the picker, so Snap is purely camera-and-file with no talking.
Frame the source
Point the live camera at a receipt, business card, or document, or tap Photo to pick from your library or PDF to attach a file. PDFs are capped at 5 MB — anything larger triggers a "PDF Too Large" alert and is rejected outright (not downscaled), so split or compress a long scan first.
Capture, then Process
With the live camera the button reads Capture first, so you can check framing and tap the X to retake — nothing is sent yet. Only the second tap, on Process, spends an AI credit, so a blurry shot never burns one. Picking an existing Photo or PDF skips Capture and goes straight to a single Process tap.
Let Vozzle file it
Vozzle reads the image and runs the same intent detection as a voice command, filing it as a note, task, or event based on what it finds — and a single receipt or itinerary can yield several tasks and events at once. A toast then lets you tap View to open the result or Undo to remove the whole batch it just created.
Snap reads structure, not just text: a printed agenda or itinerary can spin up several calendar events and tasks in one Process tap. If the AI guesses wrong, every credit-spending run still goes through the same gate — so the safest way to try a busy document is to Capture, eyeball the framing, then Process, knowing one tap on the toast's Undo backs out the entire set it created.
Worth knowing
- Share straight inSending an image into Vozzle from another app's share sheet runs Snap automatically in the background with a note-biased prompt, so it lands as a structured note with no taps — and if the AI call fails it still saves a plain note with the image attached rather than losing it.
- Two-tap is deliberateIn live-camera mode the Capture-then-Process split exists so you verify framing before any credit is spent; picking an existing Photo or PDF skips Capture because there's nothing left to frame.
- Undo is all-or-nothingEach run records every entity it inserted at creation time, so Undo on the toast tombstones the complete set in one move — handy when a busy document spawns three events and you only wanted the note.
- It auto-commitsConfident pure creates never show a preview to confirm — Snap files the item straight away and relies on the Undo toast as the safety net, which is why the toast is the only place to back a result out.
While you're here
Can I Snap a PDF instead of a photo?
Yes. In the Media Upload view tap PDF to attach a document, then tap Process and Vozzle reads it the same way it does a photo. The one hard limit is size: PDFs must be under 5 MB, and a larger file is rejected up front with a "PDF Too Large" alert rather than being downscaled — so a long scan needs splitting or compressing first.
Do I need a paid plan to use Snap?
Snap's underlying voice-command feature is Starter-tier, but free users get a deliberate bypass to try it against their lifetime pool of 10 trial credits. Consumption is server-authoritative — each Process that reaches the AI draws one credit on the server, and the local count refreshes from the server after every run so it stays consistent across devices. When the pool is empty you'll see "Out of AI — upgrade for monthly budget" and a subscribe prompt; paying tiers don't get the trial bypass.
Where does my snapped photo end up?
For pure creates (note, task, or event) Vozzle skips any preview screen — it commits the item immediately and shows an Undo/View toast. Tap Undo to tombstone every entity that run created, or let the toast pass and the item is yours to tag, edit, or share. The photo itself isn't kept as a standalone file; what persists is the structured item Vozzle extracted from it.
