Info Boxes in the Field Maps Form are a great way to guide the field user through the data collection and provide effectively an in-line user guide with potentially a prompt before each question.

While the current Info Box is quite useful, it is limited to text only.

Adding images to the Info Box editor would allow more detailed guidance to be provided within the app. This could be examples of photos with framing suggestions etc, or could be examples of levels of damage to buildings.

Much of our data collection is done using offline maps, so it would be important that the images are able to be cached with the offline map and still visible even with no network connection.

Below is an example of an info box preceding a question, showing the info box editor on the right.
