# Mobile App Attachments
{{snippet.Mobile App}}
{{variable.Marlin bold}}'s integration with the **Marlin** mobile app enables attachments, such as photos and videos, to be added to tasks on the go.
Technicians using the mobile app can use their devices to take pictures of vehicle damage and the progress of their work, which can then be viewed in the Marlin desktop client.
Attachments can also be forwarded to customers, using the Marlin [Customer Portal](https://help.megabus.com.au/docs/customer-portal).
## Adding Mobile App Attachments
To add an attachment to a task, first open the booking from the planner tasks list.
Tap on the **Attachments** heading at the top of the screen, or the Attachments section heading, to open the list of attachments.
Tap on the **+Attachment** button at the top of the section.
A pop-up menu will open at the bottom, containing options to:
* **Take a Photo** using the device's camera.
* **Record a Video** using the device's camera.
* **Upload** a file from the device.
Tap on the appropriate option and use the device to capture or upload the image/video/file as required.
When adding an attachment a **Description** can also be entered, which will appear below it in the attachments list and can continue to be edited using the mobile app.
:::(Info) (Note)
Attachment filenames themselves can only be [edited using the Marlin desktop client](/workshop/docs/attachments#Editing-Attachments).

Once added, the attachment will appear in the Attachments list of the relevant task and can be [viewed and edited in the Marlin desktop client](/workshop/docs/attachments) by opening the relevant customer order and clicking on the **Attachments** tab at the top.
