Frequently asked questions
What is the best free punch list app for iPhone?
Punch List & Site Audit is free on the App Store with no subscription required. It's designed for iPhone-first field use, with offline capture, photo-per-item, and PDF export built in.
How do I photograph and annotate a defect on iPhone?
Tap the camera inside the item, capture the photo, and add location, trade, and notes. The photo is embedded in the exported PDF report so subcontractors see exactly what was flagged and where.
Can I use my iPhone punch list offline?
Yes. All capture happens locally on the device, so dead zones, basements, and sites without Wi-Fi never block your walkthrough. You can also export the PDF offline and share it as soon as you're back on a network.
Does the iPhone app sync with the cloud?
Reports export as PDFs that you can save to iCloud Drive, Dropbox, email, or any other destination via iOS share extensions. You control where the data lives — there is no mandatory cloud account.
How do I email a punch list from my iPhone?
After generating the PDF, tap Share and choose Mail. The PDF attaches with the project name prefilled in the subject line, ready to send to your client, general contractor, or subcontractor.
