📌 Note: The Magic Button is currently an authorized module. If you don’t see it in your Paperless interface, contact us to have it enabled on your account.
At this time, the Magic Keyframe button can only be used with single-camera Data projects. And "Ignore Camera Identification" must be toggled on.
The Magic Keyframe button lets you skip shooting code cards entirely by using time-based indexing to match your photos to the correct series in Snapizzi.
When using Snapizzi Paperless, simply press the Magic Keyframe button at the start of each subject or group, take your photos, and upload them as usual.
Snapizzi will then automatically group the photos using precise time synchronization between your camera and your Paperless device.
How it Works:
Important Requirements
Don't create the next Magic Keyframe until you've completed taking your current subject/group photos.
For reliable results, time synchronization is critical:
Sync your camera clock with your Paperless device’s clock.
Most camera brands have mobile apps that can do this automatically:
Canon: Canon Camera Connect
Nikon: SnapBridge
Sony: Imaging Edge Mobile
Fujifilm: FUJIFILM Camera Remote
The closer the sync, the better. A few seconds difference is fine, but problems occur if:
The Magic Keyframe time happens after any subject photos.
The next Magic Keyframe happens before the last photo of the previous set.
If errors occur, use our Repair Tools to resolve them.
Resetting Projects with Magic Keyframe
If you ever need to reset your project when using Magic Keyframe, don’t worry—your keyframes are safe. Resetting only removes the uploaded subject photos. Any keyframes you’ve already created will remain in place, so you can just re-upload project images.
