Before work
Existing site conditions, access, adjacent areas and anything that may change once work begins.
Construction photo documentation.
Keep a clear visual record of progress, hidden work, defects and completed work while you are still on site.
FIELD PHOTOPROJECT / SITE RECORD
Record work before it disappears.
Construction changes quickly. Services are covered, concrete is poured, defects are repaired and crews move on. If the photos are left on personal phones or shared through chat, it becomes difficult to prove what was there, what changed and which part of the job the image belongs to.
What changes on site.
Conota helps capture the stages and details that are difficult to reconstruct later.
Progress
Work completed across visits, phases and trades.
Hidden work
Services, reinforcement, fixings, waterproofing and other work that will later be covered.
Defects and snags
The issue, its location and the corrective work that follows.
Deliveries
Materials or equipment received on site when a visual record is useful.
Handover
Completed work and final condition before close-out.
Keep each photo tied to the job.
Add the project context when the photo is taken, so the record is easier to identify later.
01
Capture the stage
Photograph the condition or work while it is still visible.
02
Add job context
Keep the project name, notes, date, time, GPS information and direction with the record.
03
Use structured file names
Include project names or notes in file names so large photo sets are easier to sort.
04
Prepare the record
Use selected photos in project files, reports and handover documentation where supported.
Follow the build sequence.
Use the same documentation habit from the first site visit through close-out.
Before work
Set the project and record existing conditions.
During work
Capture progress, hidden work, deliveries and issues as they occur.
Review
Check that the photo, note and location clearly identify what was recorded.
Handover
Keep the relevant photos with the final project record.
Use one site standard.
Give crews and supervisors the same way to document work, rather than relying on personal camera rolls and chat threads.
FROM THE FIELD
“You won’t find another app that will take notes on the pic and also change the file name to those notes. Working in construction this is incredibly helpful.”COLE PILGRIM · GOOGLE PLAY REVIEW

Construction questions.
Product details can vary between Android and iOS. See the Product page for current feature details.
Can Conota add job details directly to construction photos?
Yes. Depending on platform and settings, you can include project name, notes, date, time, GPS coordinates, address, direction and company logo.
Can I document hidden work before it is covered?
Yes. Conota is well suited to recording services, reinforcement, fixings, waterproofing and other work that may no longer be visible later.
Can I keep an unmarked copy of the photo?
Pro can save a clean copy alongside the documented version, which is useful when you need both the field record and the original image.
Does GPS work without mobile reception?
GPS coordinates can still be available without cell service when the phone has satellite signal. Street addresses require an internet connection.
Can Conota create construction photo reports?
PDF report creation is available on Android. Other export options vary by platform and plan.
Is Conota a construction management platform?
No. Conota focuses on field photo documentation and is designed to work alongside the project systems your team already uses.
