Likes to the photographs accompanying a review, is there a faster way to do that?

Frequently, we discover a distinct review along with excellent images.

At this place, we can up-vote the review instantly.
However, to do the same for the photographs accompanying that, one has to go to the photos tab, search for that particular item & then click the “like” button. And that’s possible only on the phone.

When we click on the photos, a thumbs-up symbol does appear at the top. However, a click on that offers an up-vote to the review and not to photos! Clicking up the three dots also doesn’t help as that opens up the menu to flag inappropriate.

Further, the sequence in which the photos appear is set by the AI & so locating that particular picture through the enormous collection become impossible.

Is there a swifter way to offer likes to the photos accompanying a review?

Hi @C_T ,

Thank you for your question.

As per the instructions provided in the “Like a Photo” section of the Add, remove, or share photos and videos article the option to like photos is what you described above.

If you think you may suggest an improved way to this feature, please, do not hesitate to post it on Idea Exchange section.

Thanks for the clarification @MashaPS

I am fully aware of how to up-vote a photo.

However, I explained a particular situation in which doing so becomes unwieldy.

I presented the query here so as to get some creative clues from knowledgeable and experienced contributors.

However, in my opinion, providing likes to photos is a not so crucial function and doesn’t warrant any efforts to update the app.
