Inspector app

From the first bay to the signed report, on one phone.

RackApp guides your inspection bay by bay. Record damage with photos and measurements, see a suggested class with the limit and rule behind it, decide, and sign the report on site. Everything works without signal.

Open the inspector app Get started

All 28 screens are clickable, with sample data. No registration.

Today: the inspection in progress at DC München-Freimann, red findings raised today and who was told, and the next inspections by urgency.
Walk and inspect: progress, counts by class, sync state and large bay tiles by row.

Set up

A site set up in minutes

Generate rows, bays and levels with the layout generator. Choose the code format and the first number, add back-to-back sides and exceptions for single rows, or import a CSV. The preview shows every code and the totals before you save.

  • Sites grouped by client, each with the client's report language
  • The next due date and open amber and red items on every site
  • A plan of the site, coloured by today's results
Layout generator: rows, bays per row and levels, code format and a live preview of the codes.
Sites: clients with their report language, bays, next due date and open amber and red items.
Site detail: status, one main action, a mini plan coloured by today's results and the open items.

Start

Last year's findings come with you

Choose the inspection type and scope, the report language (your client's by default) and the rule pack. The app brings last year's report along and puts every open item back on its bay, ready to re-check. A few questions before the walk go into the report.

Start inspection: type, scope, report language, the active rule pack, questions before the walk and last year's open items.

Walk

Bay by bay, with gloves on

The walk screen shows your progress, the counts by class and whether the phone has synced. Big tiles show each bay's code, its state and its worst class as a shape. Next bay and Review sit within thumb reach.

  • Filters for remaining bays, findings and re-checks
  • A plan view of the same bays, with shapes and a legend
  • Scan a bay's QR label to jump straight to it
Walk and inspect: rows of bay tiles with code, state and worst class.
Plan view: the bays as a top-down plan, coloured with shapes and a legend.
Scan a bay label: the camera finds the QR label and opens the bay in the running inspection.

Bay

One tap when there's nothing wrong

No defects saves the bay and opens the next one. Add finding starts a record, and Not inspected asks for a reason. Last year's items sit on their bay, so you mark each one fixed, still there or worse where you stand.

Bay D-06, not yet inspected: a big No defects button, Add finding and Not inspected.
Bay A-07: last year's amber item to re-check, and today's red finding with the time the person responsible was told.

Record

Record damage. The app suggests, you decide.

Tap the damaged part on the bay drawing and set the height. Enter the measurement with a comma or a point, and the app suggests a class from your rule pack, showing the limit, the rule and the pack version. Confirm it, or choose another class with a reason; the report keeps both. Where your pack has no limit, the app suggests nothing and the class is your judgement.

  • Photos are resized and lose their location data
  • Draw circles and arrows on a photo
  • The action text and due date follow the class; a different due date needs a reason
Add finding, where: the bay drawing with tappable uprights, beams and bracing, then the height.
Add finding, measure: 2.4 mm entered, the suggested class with the limit, rule, pack version and clause.
Add finding, evidence: photos with markings, the action text and the due date that follows the class.

Red findings

Red findings don't wait for the report

A red finding opens an alert: offload, isolate, and tell the person responsible on site. Copy the bay number, share the alert and record who was told and when. Your client sees it in the portal as soon as your phone has signal.

Red finding alert: offload, isolate, inform, with who was told and when.

Sign

Sign on site and send the PDF

Review the summary, the red items, anything not yet re-checked, the scope and limitations and the next due date. Sign with your finger: the app makes the PDF on the phone, fingerprints it and locks the inspection. Share the PDF and invite your client's people to the free portal.

  • One language per report, your client's
  • Corrections become dated addenda; the signed report never changes
  • Every signed report, with its fingerprint, in one list
Review and sign: summary by class, red items, scope and limitations, next due date and the signature field.
Signed and delivered: the SHA-256 fingerprint, share the PDF and invite the client to the portal.

QR labels

A label on every bay

Print label sheets for a whole site: 63.5 × 38.1 mm, 21 to an A4 sheet. Scanning a label opens that bay, but only for people signed in to your organisation.

QR labels: label sheets per site with a preview of the bay labels.

Rule packs

Your limits, from your copy of the standard

The limits behind each suggestion come from your organisation's rule pack. You enter them once from your own licensed copy of EN 15635, with where each value comes from. RackApp doesn't include the standard's text or values. The sample pack uses placeholder limits of 999 mm and puts a DEMO watermark on its reports.

Rule pack with sample values: versioned limits with their source, set to 999 mm placeholders.
Rule pack, your values: an empty pack ready for the limits from your own copy of the standard.
First run: choose the sample pack or your organisation's pack and confirm how the app is meant to be used.
