We need it to be more simple for the user to attached a file(.xls or pdf) for it will be essential to most of the manual forms I am creating instead of using a file link because it will be hard for a lot of users to use a single drive.

Mobile Attachments are now live for accounts on the Max plan but if your account is on the Pro plan, please reach out to your Account Representative if you wish to add-on this feature. To learn more, visit the Help Center article, Adding a Mobile Attachment Field to a Form.
Hi Gino,
Are your users trying to upload a file to attach to the submission? Is it a different file each time? Just trying to think if there are any work arounds or other ways to make this work for you.
Thanks,
Sara
I would like to see this, too. Right now we are having users take pictures of documents, such as receipts for expense reports. However, it would be nice if they could upload PDF documents from online purchases or PDF scans of paper receipts.
Hi Sara,
We have a workaround using the Weblink field pertaining to a Google Drive where they can drop the files attached, But as per users feedback, For the attachment, please explore other means as we cannot use the google drive weblink as an attachment for people will get confuse with several attachments for them to easily manage the forms as it’s only one unit/department who has control.
This would be very helpful for us as well as we dispatch instructions to our warehouse where they could see diagrams or more specific details for a job.
Hi Ilze,
It sounds like this feature request for a Static Image field type might be what you're looking for when it comes to sharing diagrams -- I just wanted to give you a heads up that it's coming soon! As for the rest, do you find that the other specific details for a job are hard to communicate using fields in the App Builder? I'd love to hear how you'd utilize an uploaded file instead of placing the information in the form of fields like Static Text and Static Image to get a better understanding of how we can improve that aspect. Thank you!
All the best,
Siobhan
