Add multiple images / FILES at once - NEEDED

Currently, appsheet users cannot select multiples images / multiple files at once. 

What I suggest ? 

For images : 

Create an 'Collection of images' table > that we can add the same way as current 'collection of files'

Add a column type "ImageList" (in column parameters, set the collection table)

____

When User select multiple images from his gallery and save, it will automatically add them to the collection of images table. This table column are important as we need to reference the new images from anywhere in the app. To do so, automatically fill a "ReferenceTable" column and "RefRowID". Optionnaly, this can be setted up in the "ImageList" column parameters.

____

+ Enable drag & drop on desktop.

It's really frustrating that we're stuck with this single file upload process for each task. It's supposed to be a tool for efficiency, but instead, it's just slowing everything down. Think about it: uploading 10 files for 10 different records every time? That's 100 files! What should take less than a minute is now dragging on for 5-10 minutes.

And then you look at all these sophisticated chat apps, or stuff like AppSheet in Google Docs, tackling much more complex problems. It feels like our issue isn't getting the attention it deserves, not because it's too complex, but maybe it's just not seen as important enough.
