So in today's video we're looking at how you can use notion to create photo galleries as well as upload receipts
We'll be demonstrating these two examples in today's video. So let's jump in
So we're going to be demonstrating this one on iOS today. So hopefully this one explains it it's pretty similar on Android
So if you have any questions pop them in the comments below
I'm sure all happily helped just so you guys know there's a brand new notion course, which we've fully released
now you can find it in the description below and get $50 off the full price if you I
Patron subscriber, so do check it out below
There's 24 lessons 25 bonus lessons and tons more content updated monthly
So let's move on to these photo galleries
So to start out it's worth grabbing your iPhone or Android device
Now you need to have this share extension
Enabled and this is really easy to do and all you need to do here is go to your Photos app
Select the photos you want in the gallery in notion and go ahead and press the share button in the bottom left hand corner
Now you need to be able to toggle notion on and drag it to a more sensible location
Now once you're happy and you've got maybe two or three photos you want to share
Then go ahead and press the notion button. Now, you have a prompt with a couple of options there
Of course, you have the ability to add it to an existing photo gallery in this crate in this case
We're going to create a brand new links database
Once you press save, of course you need to tie to it with what information is there
So in this case, they'd be OS conference
And if I press save it will go into my notion workspace
But it will sit just outside of it now naturally like all new links databases that are created
You have to move them back in and actually title them something different
But as you can see here, it's created a gallery database and a list database view
They will allow you to see all of your photos now
Once you open the card, of course
You can see all of the photos you can add just one or many and we actually did this one for these san francisco photos
I had and it's a great way to be able to store photos and of course you can go over to properties and press page
Content this will allow you to see the page content when you're in that gallery read database view
Now this is really neat because I found a lot of people will start to use this to save
Photos and the great thing is if you're not on the free plan, there's no limit to how many photos you can add
There's no upload limit
But if you are on a free plan
You can upload up to five megabytes of a file and naturally each image will be referenced as one block
So the great news is you can start uploading your photos. You can also do this with receipts as well
I think this could be a good way for people to capture receipts that they take for example
I have a few receipts here from San Francisco from places. We visited taxis
So I'm just going to press all of these
Send them over using the share extension and as you can see they've imported here now
The great thing is as I mentioned
You can add all of the regular property types you would so for example
if you want to tag these as
Business trip or leisure trip you can do and of course you can be able to add all the details there
So like normal, you could probably save these if you wanted to upload them to your own service
But you then have a good backlog of them now, but do remember that only if you've got them offline
Will they show if you do not have the page saved offline and that's just by simply viewing the cached version of it
you won't be able to view these so make sure that you have that and note that obviously the offline experience isn't as good as
Necessarily online experiences, but of course, they're looking to improve this as stated in the what's new area
So guys hopefully this is a nice overview of how you can use
Notions gallery ability to create little photo galleries of your trips and even the ability to start
Tagging some receipts now you can add some real additions to these for example
The photo galleries you could start adding captions, you could start adding little stories, you know
Start sharing them with other people who were there?
And it could be a good way and being to share stuff and with the receipt, of course
You can use the export to PDF function if you wanted to to actually export that
Receipt into a PDF to then upload to your own receipt bank or whatever you use for example could be Expensify X
Etra so it's quite a neat way and I would recommend checking this one out. I see whether it's suitable for you
Let me know if you've got any questions in the comments and I will
Happily answer them and do make sure to check out the notion made simple course if you're a total newbie, or you know
Someone that would like to benefit from a beginner course, and of course it goes up to advanced as well
So you do have real depth and real knowledge that you can learn and we guys a huge. Thank you for stopping by today
I hope you have a great day and I'll see you guys very soon
If you're brand new here do subscribe, but great to have you anyway guys. Thanks so much, and I'll talk to you soon Cheers
