An interesting new feature that I’ve only just noticed has been added to @MonaApp:
Adding an image from your Photos library to which you have already added a Caption (in Photos) automatically adds that caption as your image description/alt-text in Mona.
The video shows this in action (nb the centre bit where I locate the photo has been edited to remove personal content).

Yeah, more apps should do this!
@MostlyBlindGamer@rblind.com Feditext was probably the first app to add that feature: https://demon.social/@vyr/110736996617111318
but it’s not hard, and really every app should do it, including the Mastodon etc. web GUIs
@flschr @main @MonaApp I’ve started using captions in Photos as a means to store the alt-texts I write for here. That way they’re available to me should I want to use them again in the future or somewhere else (eg in a non-Mona app; I cross-post some photos to Pixelfed, for example, and I use Ice Cubes every now and then).
@weirdwriter @main @flschr @MonaApp I haven’t found the time to get on the TestFlight for it yet but that’s really good to hear.
@madebypaul @JonnyT @MonaApp @main Not only that, but you can search photos by what’s in their caption. Very useful!
