Hi Valentine\_Onuchukwu,

To restrict uploading of a new image, use 'new' under appearance for the image question

To restrict the quality and size, use the 'max-pixels = 100' to restrict the longest image width to 100 pixels.

ODK saves images captured in jpg format.

More details in the documentation [https://docs.getodk.org/form-question-types/#image-widgets](https://docs.getodk.org/form-question-types/#image-widgets)
