Mobile Walkthrough App


Over the course of the internship, I have helped my department with a lot of different projects. I think the most beneficial to the property managemtn department and most interesting project for me was working on the Mobile Walkthrough App. The app was created by an employee in the IT department and it is the first app released by Dwellworks. The app is to help field agents with their walkthrough reports and photos. Once they are sent in, they are put into a PDF file and sent to the PM and eventually the homeowner.

Before the app, field agents had to do the report by hand and scan or fax it into to us. Along with the report, there needed to be at least 25 photos taken and signatures. It sounds pretty simple, but combing them together is very time consuming. Some field agents wouldn’t sign the report, or date stamp the photos so we had to track them down to obtain this info before processing it. This app is going to eliminate all of the unnecessary work and make it easier for everyone.

I am happy to announce that the app has been completed and is in the testing phase right now with the field agents. I can’t wait to see the future of this app!
