When done with capturing, you will be taken to the preview menu.
If you push the (2) "Cancel" at this stage, the media clip will be lost. Select (3) "choose" to save the clip. From here you will be taken to the clip info menu to select a destination and add metadata (keywords).
When taking a picture, the image will be saved in the app/phone library immediately regardless if you choose to upload it or not.
How to upload
Fill in your data, Tags, Comments, and Keywords and press upload.
The smartphone will use the present/active account when logging in. Properly configured, you will receive "default" (6) metadata Category (Tags) from Mediabank when selecting media content for upload. If the (6) "Category" is missing from your clip info screen, your account is not configured for this function. You can still upload your media clip/image and add your metadata (keywords) manually.
