Destination shoots abroad: what the desktop app does while you travel
For UK photographers shooting abroad: Lemon Link needs a connection to show your studio, but the computer you leave at home can keep writing alt text, started from your phone.
UK photographers shooting destination weddings and events abroad often hit patchy or expensive mobile data. Lemon Link doesn't change that for reading your studio: it loads your live studio, so it needs a connection, the same as the browser. Where it helps is the computer you leave behind.
Why destination work makes this worse
Roaming data can be expensive or capped, local signal is unpredictable in unfamiliar countries, and venues abroad are just as likely as UK ones to have poor coverage, sometimes more so in remote or rural destinations.
Work that carries on at home
If your computer is on with Lemon Link running in the tray, it picks up jobs queued for it with no window open. From your phone, you can start an alt text run for a gallery, and it runs on your computer at home. You get a notification when it's done.
What stays on your computer
The alt text is written by a small AI model on your computer, free. The photo never leaves your computer; only the text is uploaded.
