Did the field maps update remove function to rename attachment files?

Hi all, I am currently re-writing some of our field methods documents for one of our Field Maps data collection projects. I noticed that in the new update to ESRI Field Maps (as of October 2025), the option to click on an attachment and rename it has disappeared. I also noticed that the option to remove or delete an attachment has disappeared as well. Are these functions still in the new version of Field Maps and I am just not finding them?

The attachment file naming function is very important to our photo point monitoring efforts. Without it the attachments become very disorganized very quickly.

It appears as if that is still available, it is just accessed differently now.

It used to be, if you were editing the feature, you could click on the attachment, it would open it up and give you the option to rename it. If you pressed and held, you could remove it.

It appears now that you no longer have to 'open' the attachment, just click and hold and a menu pops up with the options to Rename, Share, or Remove.

That worked! I tried the long press but apparently didn't hold it long enough. Thanks!
