How to Timestamp Photo Attachments in ESRI Collector App.

Question

We need to automatically timestamp the photo attachments when using ESRI Collector APP. Either a visual timestamp on the photo or a date in the attachment name would be great. Field crews use a variety of devices (iOS, android) so looking for a general solution or unique solutions depending on platform. We collect a lot of data, so manually changing the photo name is not practical.
