I have a long form with many pages, and several pages ask for photos to be uploaded.  The idea is to have this always be used on a mobile device, and file uploads can take a very long time depending on cellular connectivity conditions. 
Is there a way to have the photos be uploaded in the background and let the user continue filling out the form?

Formidable uses dropzone.js as the driver for the upload field. You can check the dropzone.js configuration options to see if there's a setting that can help you. https://docs.dropzone.dev/configuration/basics/configuration-options
