Log the items

Camera first: snap the problem, tap where it is, what it is and who owns it, then Save + next opens the camera again. The area, category, owner and priority carry over, so a long walk goes fast.

Log an item from the camera in under a minute
Mark up a photo so the problem cannot be missed
Put every item down with the right owner, priority and status

One item

01
New item
The camera opens. Take the photo. No photo for this one? "+ No photo". A photo already on the phone? Use Library.
02
Mark up
Circle, Arrow, Pen or Label, five colours, Undo. Save keeps the marks on the report photo.
03
Where
Tap the area, then type the spot ("Grid C4", "by the north door"). Recent spots are one tap.
04
What
Pick the category — Finish, Joints & cracks, Cove & edges, Drains & slope, Substrate, Damage by others, Site & safety — then the issue. Add a note in your own words.
05
Who owns it
Maverick, GC, Other trade (name the trade), Owner, or TBD when you cannot tell. The office settles TBD.
06
Priority and action
Safety, High, Normal or Cosmetic. The fix: Spot repair, Sand & recoat area, Grind & patch, Recoat entire area, Clean, Other trade to repair, Monitor or No action. Pick a due date if there is one.
07
Status
Open, In progress, Resolved or Not our scope. Resolved asks for an after photo.
08
Maverick response
On a Maverick item, write what we will do. It prints next to the item.
09
Save + next
The camera opens for the next item with the area, category, owner, priority and action carried over. Change the category and the carried action clears.

Guessing at an owner you are not sure of.
This
TBD, with a note on what you saw. The office decides.

Takeaways

New item opens the camera. Save + next saves and opens it again for the next one.
Every item needs a location and an issue (or a note). The report is only as good as the owner you put down.
Safety items get a red badge and make the follow-up task top priority.
