The problem
Construction teams take hundreds of photos every week, but most of those photos end up in a camera roll or a shared drive with no connection to the drawings. When the owner asks for progress on level 3, someone scrolls through 500 photos trying to find the ones from that floor. When a dispute arises about when a wall was framed, the team digs through months of photos hoping to find the right one.
Even when photos are organized into folders by date, they lack spatial context. A photo labeled "2024-03-15_IMG_4532.jpg" in a folder called "Level 3" does not tell you where on level 3 it was taken or what it was documenting. The photo exists but the context is lost. Without a connection to the construction drawing, progress photos are just a pile of images with no structure.
How HomeFloorPlan solves it
HomeFloorPlan lets you pin progress photos directly on the construction plan at the exact location where they were taken. Walk the site, tap the plan, snap a photo, and it is immediately tied to that spot on the drawing. Over time, you build a location-specific visual timeline that shows exactly how each area of the project progressed.
When the owner asks about progress in a specific area, you tap that area on the plan and see every photo taken there, in chronological order. When a dispute arises, you pull up the location and show the timestamped photo record. The photos are organized by the plan itself, not by date or folder, so finding the right photo is as simple as tapping the right spot on the drawing.

Mobile capture from the field
Snap photos directly from your phone while viewing the plan. The photo is pinned to the location you tapped with no extra steps.

Frequently asked questions
How many photos can I upload per project?
HomeFloorPlan does not impose a per-project photo limit. Upload as many progress photos as your project requires and they will all be organized on the plan.
Can I share progress photos with the owner?
Yes. Give the owner view-only access to the project and they can see all progress photos pinned to the plan. They can tap any area to see the photo timeline for that location.
Do photos sync across the team automatically?
Yes. When anyone on the team pins a photo to the plan, it is immediately visible to all other team members with access to the project. Everyone sees the same photo record in real time.
