Simplifying Mobile Image Uploads with Image Hopper

Learn how Image Hopper can simplify the task of uploading mobile-captured images to WordPress, with automatic image conversion and robust image editing features.

Looking for an easy solution to upload mobile-captured images to WordPress? Let’s discuss how Image Hopper can do this, and more.

Meet Jane, the owner of a virtual home staging website powered by Gravity Forms and WordPress1. Jane collaborates with interior designers and decorators who capture photos of spaces, home interiors, and design inspirations. They then upload their images to her website to create stunning visual presentations for clients.

However, most of Jane’s associates use iPhones or iPads to take their photos. That being said, this presents a problem: iOS devices default to an image format called HEIC/HEIF, which can be tricky to upload and display on websites.

While browsing Gravity Forms’ extensive library of certififed add-ons, Jane discovers Image Hopper. It checks all the boxes as a well-rounded image uploader, but most importantly it automatically converts iOS HEIC images to JPEG on upload.

Jane made the switch, and now her users don’t need to manually export each image, adjust the camera settings on their device ahead of time, or contact support about “upload problems”. It’s a far smoother user experience for all involved, and frees up Jane’s time to work on growing her business.

With the upload problem solved, Jane then discovered Image Hopper’s robust image editing features. By upgrading to the Image Hopper Editor license, she’s given users the power to enhance and fine-tune images directly in the browser when they need these tools the most.

Image Hopper’s functionality indeed goes beyond just “image uploading”. With support for multiple image formats, powerful editing options, and extensive support for other third-party Gravity Forms plugins, Image Hopper just makes images easy.
