The construction photo app built for the field

CrewBox is a construction photo app that turns jobsite pictures into proof. Every photo is time-stamped, GPS-tagged, and filed under the right project the moment it's captured — so the office and the field share one searchable record of the work. Snap it on site, mark it up, and hand clients a branded PDF report in minutes. It even works with no signal.

Why crews pick CrewBox as their construction photo app

A phone's camera roll was built for holiday snapshots. A construction photo app has one job: prove what the crew did, when they did it, and where — without anyone typing a word on site.

Capture on any jobsite

A purpose-built jobsite camera with volume-key burst capture, a bubble level, and tag-before-you-shoot. Glove-friendly, one-handed, and every construction photo lands in the right project instead of your camera roll.

Organized automatically

Time, date, GPS, and photographer attach to every capture — no typing. A date-grouped photo library makes any stage of any job searchable in seconds, across every project you have ever run.

Reports in minutes

Turn a day's construction photos into a branded, client-ready PDF progress report generated entirely on the device — no desktop, no formatting, no waiting for the office to get to it.

Works with no signal

Basements, new builds, remote sites — capture, tag, annotate, and comment fully offline. Everything queues on the phone and syncs automatically the moment a connection returns.

How the construction photo app works

Three steps, and only the first one happens on the jobsite. The other two are mostly the app doing the filing you would otherwise do on a Friday night.

1

Shoot the job

Open the camera from the home screen, pick the project once, and shoot. Burst through a rough-in, drop a tag as you go, record a fifteen-second clip of the thing that is hard to explain in stills.

2

It files itself

Each photo arrives in the project timeline stamped with time, date, GPS, and who took it. Tags, crew filters, and date ranges mean you find the shot of that valve nine months later in about four seconds.

3

Send the proof

Select the photos, pick a template, and a branded PDF comes out the other end — captions, cover page, your logo. Share it, print it, or file it back into the project as a document.

Every feature in one construction photo app

Seventeen features, grouped the way a job actually runs: capture it, organize it, act on it, deliver it. Every one of them ships in the app on your phone — follow any link for the full detail.

Step OneCapture — photos, video & markup on site

The part that happens with gloves on, in the rain, on one bar of signal.

Jobsite camera & video

Volume-key capture with burst mode, a bubble level, rule-of-thirds grid, pinch zoom, and tag-before-you-shoot with automatic GPS. Fifteen-second video clips ride the same background upload queue.

Jobsite camera →

Photo annotation & measurements

Rectangles, circles, arrows, text, and timestamps in twelve colors, with imperial and metric measurement labels. Vector markup is never burned in — re-edit anytime, and show original, annotated, or both in a report.

Photo annotation →

Offline mode & auto sync

Capture photos, create projects, and comment with zero connectivity. Everything queues on the device and syncs the moment signal returns, with a full upload-queue view and retry controls so nothing goes missing.

Offline mode →

Step TwoOrganize — every photo filed where it belongs

The filing you never have to do, and the search that makes nine months ago feel like this morning.

Searchable jobsite photo library grouped by date in the CrewBox construction photo app

Jobsite photo library

A searchable, cross-project photo history grouped by date. Filter by tag, crew member, media type, or date range — then share, tag, move, print, or report on a whole selection at once.

Photo documentation →

Projects & crew management

Every photo, document, task, and comment lives under one project. Verified address autocomplete for the US and Canada, crew assignment, favorites, and Near Me distance sorting — and projects can be created fully offline.

Projects →

Tags & organization

One tag vocabulary across projects, photos, documents, and tasks, applied at capture or in bulk afterwards. Filter any list, group tasks by tag, and carry those tags straight into the client PDF.

Tags →

Document management

Plans, permits, and contracts live with the project. Built-in viewers for PDF, CSV, text, and Office formats — comment on files, rename them, tag them, and move them between projects.

Documents →

Home dashboard

Vos projets en carrousel visuel et vos tâches classées par urgence — en retard, aujourd'hui, demain. Balayez n'importe où sur l'accueil pour ouvrir la caméra sur votre dernier projet.

Step ThreeAct — turn photos into work that gets done

A photo of a problem is a photo. A photo attached to an assigned task with a due date is a fix.

Photo-backed punch list tasks with priorities and due dates in the CrewBox construction photo app

Tasks & punch lists

Quatre priorités, échéances avec compte à rebours, validation d'un tap et preuves photo attachées depuis la grille. Assignez, changez le statut ou re-taguez toute une journée de travail en une seule action.

Tasks →

Comments & @mentions

Threaded comments on projects, photos, and documents, so the answer stays attached to the thing it is about. @Mentions notify and deep-link teammates; long-press an avatar to call, text, or email.

Comments →

Notifications

A categorized feed — mentions, task assignments, project activity — sorted into tabs with unread counts. Every alert deep-links to the exact photo, task, or comment it is about.

Notifications →

Step FourDeliver — proof the client can actually read

Nobody outside the crew wants a folder of 240 JPGs. They want six pages with your logo on them.

Branded PDF construction progress report generated on the device in CrewBox

PDF progress reports & templates

Branded, photo-rich progress reports generated entirely on the device — cover page, sections, headers and footers, two to four photos per page. Save any report as a reusable template for next week.

PDF reports →

Share, export & print

Native share sheets for photos, videos, documents, and reports. Save to the phone's gallery, print through the system dialog, or file a generated PDF back into the project as a document.

Sharing →

UnderneathThe platform — set it up once, forget it

The parts nobody demos and everybody notices the week they go missing.

A construction photo app for your trade

The camera is the same. What you have to prove is not — so the tags, templates, and report sections are set up differently depending on who is holding the phone.

Pre-install liability documentation, hail and storm damage markups, and final inspection sign-offs an adjuster will accept. Roofing →

Plumbers & pipefitters

Rough-in proof before the drywall goes up, water damage reports, and valve shutoff mapping you can find again in a panic. Plumbing →

Électriciens

Panel wiring verification, NEC compliance evidence, and fixture progress across a whole floor without leaving the ladder. Electrical →

HVAC technicians

Model and serial extraction, ductwork documentation, and client authorization sign-offs captured on the spot. HVAC →

Landscapers & hardscapers

Construction photo app FAQ

What is a construction photo app?
A construction photo app is a jobsite camera and photo record built for contractors instead of for family snapshots. It stamps each photo with the time, date and GPS location, files it under the right project automatically, and keeps the whole crew and the office looking at the same searchable history — then turns any selection of photos into a client-ready report. CrewBox does all of that from the phone in your pocket.
Does the construction photo app work offline on the jobsite?
Yes. Basements, mechanical rooms, new builds and rural sites all work. You can capture photos and video, create projects, add tags, annotate, comment and generate a PDF report with zero connectivity. Everything queues on the device and syncs automatically the moment signal returns, and an upload-queue view with retry controls shows exactly what is still pending.
Can I turn construction photos into a report?
Yes. Select the photos you want, pick a template, and CrewBox builds a branded PDF progress report on the device — cover page, sections, headers and footers, two to four photos per page, with captions you can edit. Save any report as a reusable template so next week's takes a minute, and file the finished PDF back into the project as a document.
Are jobsite photos time-stamped and GPS-tagged automatically?
Yes. Time, date, GPS coordinates and the crew member who took the shot attach at capture, with no typing. That metadata is what makes a construction photo useful months later to an adjuster, an inspector or an attorney — and it is what a camera roll full of untagged images cannot give you.
Can my whole crew use the same construction photo app?
Yes. Assign crews to projects and every photo, task, document and comment they add lands in one shared record the office can see in real time. @Mentions notify the right person and deep-link them to the exact photo or task, and each user can run the app in English, Spanish or French independently of everyone else.
Is there a free version of the construction photo app?
Yes. The free plan covers 1 user, 5 projects and 10 GB of storage with no card and no expiry date, so you can document a real job before deciding anything. Paid plans add unlimited projects, more storage and more seats — see pricing.
Can I annotate and mark up jobsite photos?
Yes. Draw rectangles, circles, arrows, text and timestamps in twelve colors, with imperial or metric measurement labels. The markup is vector and never burned into the file, so you can re-edit it months later and choose whether a report shows the original photo, the annotated version, or both side by side.
Does the construction photo app work on iPhone and Android?
Yes. CrewBox runs on iOS and Android for the field, with a web console for the office to manage projects, users, documents and reports. Sign in with email or Google, and unlock with Face ID or a fingerprint.
