Getting started

Capturing photos and video

Media, such as photos and video, can be included in inspection lines as well as in comments. Pictures or other media may be added to the line to show the overall item being inspected. For example, an inspector might take pictures of a roof to show that they looked at it. These pictures may not have anything to do with a specific comment/rating made by the inspector. In this situation, it would be better to put the media under a line instead of under a specific comment.

Adding media to Lines

  1. With an inspection open, navigate to the category containing the line that needs a photo/video and tap on the category name

  2. Under the line that needs media, tap on the camera icon

    1. Choose Video or Photo from the buttons at the bottom of the app

  3. Point your device to the object/location that needs to be captured and press the round capture button at the bottom to capture the media. Multiple pictures and videos can be taken at once

  4. When finished, press the blue Done button

  3. The comment will expand with several new options, tap on Add Media

    1. Choose Video or Photo from the buttons at the bottom of the app
