Field Guide

Everything the app does, in the order you'll need it. Written for a phone in a job trailer.

Signing in

There is no password. There never will be.

Type your email, tap Send code, and we email you a six-digit code. The same code works whether it's your first time or your five hundredth — if you're new, it creates your account.

Worth knowing

The code is in the subject line of the email. You can read it straight off the notification without opening anything.

Tick Remember my email if it's your own phone and you won't type your address again. Codes last ten minutes; if one doesn't arrive, tap Send a new code.

Setting up your company

The first time you sign in you'll be asked for your name and your company name, once.

Get this one right

Your company name prints on every report you send out. Put what you want a client to read, not a shorthand. You can change it later from the Company tab, but reports already sent keep the old name.

The role field is fixed to Superintendent, and that's deliberate: on your own account you are both the owner and the Super on the job. It's why you see five tabs along the bottom and an invited Super sees a different set.

Adding a job

A job — a project — is what everything else hangs off. Reports, photos and your look-ahead all belong to one.

Tap + New Project. Five fields are required: name, address, city, state and zip.

Project Owner is optional and worth filling in. It's the client the job is being built for, and it prints on every daily report directly under the job name. A report that leaves your phone is a record for somebody — name them.

Start date, completion date and project number are yours to use or ignore. Nothing depends on them.

On the free plan

You get one job and ten submitted reports a month. Enough to decide whether this is for you.

Filing your daily report

The part that should take two minutes instead of twenty.

Top of the screen

Nothing you type leaves your phone until you submit. You can start in the morning, add to it all day, and send it at four.

  1. Talk through your day. Tap 🎙️ Record voice notes and just say what happened — the work, the headcounts, who came by, what held you up.

    While it's recording
    ⏹ Stop & organize
    0:24 Listening…

    The clock runs and the bar moves with your voice, so you can see it's hearing you. If that bar never moves, your phone hasn't given the app the microphone.

    Tap ⏹ Stop & organize and it writes down what you said and sorts it into the right sections.

  2. Read it over. It's a first draft, not a final answer. It sorts by meaning and it's good, not perfect — something you mentioned in passing may land in Notes.

    It adds to what's already there and never wipes out something you typed. Type first and record after if you like; you keep both.

  3. Check the weather line. Allow location the first time and it fills itself in.

    Read this once

    Weather comes from your phone, not the job's address. File on site and it's right. Write it up from the truck yard at seven that night and you've logged the truck yard's weather onto a permanent record. If you're catching up later, check that line before you send.

  4. Fill in the sections. Work Performed Today, Manpower, Equipment, Delays, Safety, Visitors, Notes.

    The grey prompt inside each box is the whole daily-report discipline written out — "Crews on site, headcounts, trades", "Incidents, toolbox talks, observations". If you're not sure what belongs somewhere, read the prompt.

    Only one is required: Work Performed Today REQUIRED. Until it has something in it, the submit button stays greyed out and tells you why.

  5. Add photos. Pick as many as you want from your camera roll and caption them.

    A caption saves when you tap out of the box, not as you type. Finish the caption, then tap away.

  6. Submit. You'll get one last confirmation, and it's worth reading.

    This one is permanent

    Once submitted, a report is final. There is no edit, no delete, no un-submit — not by you, not by your office, not by us. It's locked in the database itself.

    That's on purpose. A daily report is evidence. One that could be quietly changed three weeks later, after somebody's lawyer called, wouldn't be worth anything.

Sending the report out

Open a submitted report and tap Download / Share PDF.

You get a clean PDF on your company's letterhead: the job name, who it's for, the date, who filed it, then everything you wrote and your photos with their captions.

On a phone this opens the normal share sheet — text it, email it, AirDrop it, whatever that project manager actually reads. On a computer it downloads. Either way it goes out from your email, not ours.

Working with no signal

Half the jobsites in this country have no bars in the middle of the building.

Typing the weather yourself

Everything is saved on the phone and goes up the moment you have signal. Submit it in the basement; it files itself in the parking lot. The status pill at the top tells you what's still waiting.

Photos are the one thing with a ceiling — about 75 MB of un-sent photos on the device before it warns you.

The 3-week look-ahead

Three weeks, Monday to Friday. No weekends, because you're not scheduling trades on a Sunday.

The window works itself out from today's date every time you open it. You never scroll it forward — on Monday, "this week" is already this week.

Set up your Areas first

An Area is a place on your job: Level 2 North, the east pad, Suites 210–214. Whatever you actually call it out loud.

The one rule to remember

Without an Area on an entry, nothing is ever flagged as a conflict. Catching two trades stacked in the same place is the whole point of a look-ahead, and it only works if you name the place.

Reading the board

What the colours mean
Confirmed
Tentative
At risk
Inspection

Tentative is the default when you add something. Blue is different from the other three — it means the entry is an inspection, and it overrides the status colour. An inspection day is a different kind of day.

When two trades land in the same Area on the same days, you get a banner:

Conflict banner

It isn't stopping you. Sometimes stacking is exactly right. It's making sure you chose it instead of finding out on Thursday morning.

When the window moves on

Every Monday the window slides forward a week, so work that's already behind you drops off the board. That's the point — the look-ahead shows what's coming, not what's done.

If something slipped and still needs doing, open it and change the dates. You've got the whole time it was scheduled to catch it.

For the office

If you run more than one Super, the Company tab is where everything lands. Two things roll up — who filed today, and every report in one list. No charts, no manpower totals.

Who filed today

A count like 3/4 reported, then the names of whoever hasn't. That's the list you act on at four o'clock.

Finding any report

Every job, every Super, all time, in one feed. Filter by person or by job. Open any of them and you can share the same PDF the Super can.

Drafts are private

You see submitted reports only. A Super's unfinished draft stays theirs until they send it.

Adding your Supers

Invite them with their name and email, and assign them to a job while you're there — a Super who isn't on a job signs in to an empty screen.

They sign in with the exact address you invited. There's no link to click, and the invite is good for a week.

Seats

$29 per Super per month, or annual for about two months less. Every feature is included — there's no tier where the good stuff is hiding.

At ten Supers the price stops moving

It becomes a flat $279 a month for unlimited Supers. Ten costs $279. Fifteen costs $279. Fifty costs $279.

Every Super you hire past the tenth is free, and the app applies the flat rate on its own — you don't have to ask.

Reminders and settings

Under Settings, you can have SuperReports email you if you haven't filed by a time you pick — four in the afternoon by default.

It only sends on days you haven't already submitted, so file at noon and you'll never hear from it. Weekdays only, and it follows your phone's timezone.

Settings is also where you sign out, and where Send message reaches a real person if something's wrong or missing.

That's the whole app.
