The respondent can decide to confirm the taken photo or make a new one.

Filling out a survey on a computer

In the case of respondent filling out a survey using a computer, question is displayed in two different ways:

• If a computer has a camera, question asking to access a camera (in the top left corner) will appear. When user confirms and allows access to the camera, on the left side of the screen a camera is shown. When the user confirms and allows access to the camera, the camera will appear on the left side of the screen, and when you click on the camera icon, the created photo will be displayed on the right.
• If a computer does not have a camera, this question type will behave the same as a 'file upload' question type. Respondent can upload any photo as a file (uploaded file must be an image type only).
