Can users directly capture and upload a picture from their mobile device into a form?
### Field Types

Absolutely. When the form is viewed on a mobile device, an [Image Upload question](https://paperform.com/help/articles/can-my-audience-upload-files-to-paperform-forms/) will prompt the submitter to either upload an existing photo or take a new one using their phone's camera.

Below is a screenshot example of what a person will see when tapping on the "Choose a File" option on their mobile device:
