You can manage your business information directly from the Partoo mobile app. You can present your business and its activity by adding a description, photos, additional categories, and the services you offer.

To add, edit, or remove this information from your Partoo app:

  1. From your homepage, go to the “Locations” section at the top of the screen;

  2. Tap “Manage Information”;

  3. Select the location you want to update.

💡If you have multiple locations, select the one you want to manage.

Add a description

The description allows you to present your business and explain its activity on Google Business Profile. There are two versions: a short version (70 characters) and a longer version (up to 750 characters).

To update your description, click on “Descriptions”. You’ll need to fill in two fields — one for the short description and one for the long description.

🚨 Please note: the character count is limited according to Google’s requirements. You won’t be able to exceed the maximum allowed.

Add new photos

Photos are an important factor in customers’ decision-making and also help improve your position in search results. That’s why it’s essential to update your photos regularly — we recommend doing so around once a week. You can showcase your products, services, offerings, place of business, and more.

To add new photos, follow these steps:

  1. From the “Manage Information” section, click on “Business Photos”;

  2. Tap the blue “+” button at the bottom right of the screen.

📸 Add new photos directly from your smartphone camera

  1. Tap the camera icon at the top left of the screen

  2. Allow the Partoo app to access your smartphone’s camera

  3. Take a photo by pressing the round button at the bottom centre of the screen

  4. You can turn the flash on or off by tapping the lightning icon on the left, and switch between the front and rear cameras by tapping the camera icon on the right

  5. Confirm your photo and add it to your listings by tapping the blue button with the arrow.

📂 Add new photos from your smartphone gallery

  1. Select the photo(s) you want to add.

  2. If you've only granted access to part of your gallery and the photos you want aren't visible, tap Manage in the top right, then Select more photos”.

  3. Tap Import X photos to add the selected images to your listing.

Set a logo and a cover photo

The logo represents your business’s visual identity (usually your official logo).

The cover photo is the main image displayed on your Google listing.

  1. Click on the photo you want to set as your logo or cover photo;

  2. Tap the “...” icon in the top right corner;

  3. Select “Set as logo” or “Set as cover photo”.

💡Si vous définissez une nouvelle photo en tant que logo, la photo de votre logo actuel sera conservée en tant que photo additionnelle car vous ne pouvez avoir qu’un seul logo. Idem pour la photo principale.

Delete Photos

  • Click on the photo you want to delete;

  • Tap the “...” icon in the top right corner;

  • Select “Delete”.

Add an additional category

Categories describe the main and secondary activities of your business. For example, a bakery might select "Bakery" as the primary category, and "Tea Room" or "Catering Service" as secondary categories.

Add your additional categories from the Partoo mobile app:

  1. From the “Manage Information” section, tap “Categories”;

  2. Tap the “+” button and add up to 9 secondary categories (Google’s limit), using our personalised recommendations based on your main category.

🚨 Be careful: making too many changes to your categories can result in your Google listing being suspended.
