Android 14 Chrome Restricts Nintex Forms and other websites: Only Album Uploads Available, Camera Option Removed
Instructions
Due to a recent change in Google Chrome for Android 14, the functionality to take photos directly using the camera in Nintex Forms and other websites has been disabled. Users can only upload photos from their albums. This change is specific to Android 14 when using Google Chrome, and there is currently no enhanced functionality provided by Nintex to address this issue directly within Chrome.
Workaround: Using the Nintex Mobile App
To continue using the camera for photo uploads in Nintex Forms, follow these steps to use the Nintex Mobile app:
- Install the Nintex Mobile App.
- Open the Google Play Store on your Android device.
- Search for Nintex Mobile.
- Download and install the Nintex Mobile app.
- Open the Nintex Mobile App.
- Launch the Nintex Mobile app from your device's app drawer or home screen.
- Sign In to Your Account.
- Enter your Nintex credentials to sign in to your account within the app.
- Access the Form.
- Navigate to the form you need to fill out using the Nintex Mobile app.
- Use the File Upload Field.
- Locate the File Upload field within the form.
- Tap the File Upload field to open the upload options.
- Take a Photo.
- Choose the option to Take a Photo.
- Use your device's camera to capture the photo.
- Confirm the photo to attach it to the form.

By following these steps, you can continue to take and upload photos directly within Nintex Forms using the Nintex Mobile app, bypassing the limitation currently present in Google Chrome on Android 14.
