Hey Seneca_83!

400 is indeed the manual upload limit that you can use unless you're using camera uploads. You can read more about that here. 

In any case, I'll forward your feedback to the appropriate areas so we can continue to improve.

If you need something else, please let me know and I will be more than happy to help every step of the way.
