The Adafruit itsaSNAP app lets you use Apple Shortcuts to send data from your iOS device to your Adafruit IO feeds. Did you know that this includes photos? In this project, you'll setup an Apple Shortcut to use Base64 encoding to send a photo to your Adafruit IO feed. A Qualia S3 running CircuitPython code will retrieve the photo from the feed using MQTT, decode it and show it on a beautiful 720x720 round display.
You can setup the Shortcut to pull from a specific album in the Photos app, a period of time or even your most recent photo. Every time you run the Shortcut, the photo will be resized, encoded and sent to your Adafruit IO feed with itsaSNAP. Once the new photo is sent to the feed, the Qualia S3 will update.
