I would like this feature as well. It possible to share an image from the gallery to orgzly but this results in

content://com.simplescan.scanner.fileprovider/external_storage_root/SimpleScanner/Documents/Lieferschein%20standregal/202011182243021000.jpg

Cannot determine path to this image and only linking to an image is currently supported.

It would be great to move the file to .attach/
And add a link internally

Hello,

Regarding the addition of images, you should normally be able to do so by doing it the org-mode way, i.e. by using one of the following link description: [[path/to/image.jpg]] or file:path/to/image. Please have a look at this page for more information: https://orgmode.org/guide/Hyperlinks.html (I don't know how much of the link set Orgzly implements)
This should add a file link to a note and clicking this file link should open the image externally, but it doesn't seem to be working any longer on my side, can you confirm this ?

In addition to inserting the link (if they work) and to be able to have the images displayed, you must also toggle the following option: Settings > Notes & Notebooks > Enable images (in the Images section)

That method doesn't work always even after enabling Images in Setting.

I request to add a feature to Add Images internally.
Thanks

Ok, what do you mean by adding images internally ? how would imagine yourself adding images in a note of a notebook ? via the UI ?
(To have an idea on how the feature could be designed)
Internally, the structure would still have to use org-mode I guess, so there would still be a file link or maybe an attachment (not sure this is implemented)

I don't know coding. Lol
I was just telling that, an image may be selected from Storage and dropped into Note.
Thus making a copy of image in the note database of the app.

I am not ridiculously asking new features. I was just trying to make the app more Android friendly.

Sorry if i was rude. '-'

You basically want org-download for Orgzly

There is already #566 and probably more.

Edit: Well, of course, there is the very #1, too
