Construction Photo App
Construction Photo App — Document Jobsites with Photos, Notes & Proof
Crews need more than a camera roll. A construction photo app turns everyday pictures into organized, searchable jobsite documentation. With WorkFotos, teams capture before-and-after photos, add notes, apply tags by area or trade, and convert issues into tasks. The result is clear progress reporting, faster punch list closeout, reliable safety documentation, and inspection-ready QA/QC—without end-of-day copy/paste.
Why photos are the backbone of jobsite documentation
Jobsite photos provide immediate context for owners, inspectors, and project managers. The right jobsite photo app attaches time stamps, optional location context, and project/area structure so images become evidence—useful for field communication, change coordination, RFIs, and warranty records.
The simple loop: Photos, Notes, Tags, Tasks
Photos with context
Capture progress, punch items, and safety observations in seconds—even with weak signal using offline capture. Ideal for concrete and structure, interiors and finishes, roofing, MEP, pools, landscaping, and site work.
Notes that explain the picture
Add short notes—materials, quantities, constraints—so reviewers understand what they’re seeing during inspections and QA/QC checks.
Tags & routing
Tag by area (Building A / Level 3 / South) and by trade (#electrical, #plumbing, #HVAC, #roof). Mention owners to route decisions and speed resolution across subcontractors.
Tasks & status
Turn any post into a task, assign an owner and due date, and track Open → In Progress → Done. Close with an “after” shot for verifiable proof.
Project albums
Each job auto-organizes photos by date and area. Share read-only client links for visibility without exposing internal chats.
Exportable reports
Generate clean summaries or PDFs for owners and inspectors—perfect for progress reports, punch list reports, and closeout.
