How to Turn Photos into a Task in CrewBox

Select the photos showing a problem and create an assigned task with them attached — the fastest issue report on a job site.

Bulk actions sheet with the Assign to Task action

Steps

  1. Open the project's Photos tab and find the photos showing the issue.
  2. Long-press one to enter multi-select mode, then select the rest (or a whole day via the date header toggle).
  3. Open the actions sheet and tap Assign to Task.
  4. The task form opens with your photos already attached. Fill in:
    Title — "Repair flashing at chimney"
    Priority (Low / Medium / High / Urgent) and status
    Due date and optional time
    Assignee — the crew member who'll fix it
    Tags if you use them
  5. Tap Save. The assignee gets an Assignment notification; opening the task shows them exactly what the problem looks like — no describing it over the phone.

Speed Tip

Set New-task defaults in Profile → Default Settings (default priority, due date, assign-to-me). With defaults tuned, this whole flow is: select photos → Assign to Task → type title → Save.

Also Works With Documents

The Documents tab's selection mode has the same Assign to Task action — attach the relevant plan or spec sheet to the task alongside photos.
