First, thanks for checking out Spectora's rebuilt reporting platform. At this point, over 25,000 inspections a month from more than 2,000 inspectors are completed on the newest app version!

Spectora’s V10 Next-Gen app is designed to give inspectors a faster, more reliable, and feature-rich experience. With a completely revamped interface and improved performance, the V10 app offers the tools you need to streamline your inspection process while working on-site. This guide will walk you through how to get started with the new app, so you can make the most of Spectora’s latest advancements.

This app provides the same experience and workflow you know and love, with a refreshed feel and updated feature options!

🎢 I'm ready. Let's do it.


Step 1: Download the V10 Next-Gen App

The V10 app is available for both iOS and Android devices. Here’s how you can get it:

  • iOS Users

    • Tap here from your mobile device. Your web browser will open to a page where you'll first be prompted to download an app called "TestFlight" from the App Store (Step 1).

      You may be prompted to enter a code - no such code exists! PLEASE DISREGARD this prompt and continue to step two.

    • After downloading TestFlight, return to your web browser on your mobile device and tap on the "Start Testing" button. You'll be prompted to "Accept" the invite. Accept the invite and then tap "Install."

  • Android Users

    • Tap here from your mobile device to download the latest version of the app using Google Play.

      OR

    • Go to the Google Play Store on your Android device.

    • Search for Spectora V10 or Spectora X.

    • Download and install the app.

Once downloaded, log in using your Spectora account credentials.

Pro-tip: If you deleted the V10 app or got a new phone/device, you can get the V10 version back by following the steps above or clicking one of the links below!

Step 2: Familiarize Yourself with the New Features

The V10 app introduces several improvements to help you perform inspections faster and more efficiently:

  • Enhanced Speed and Stability: The new app is optimized for better performance, reducing lag and making it easier to navigate through inspections.

  • Updated Interface: The design has been revamped for a smoother user experience. It’s more intuitive, with simpler workflows to help you move through your inspection with ease.

  • Improved Photo and Video Uploads: Uploading photos and videos is faster, and you can annotate them directly within the app.

  • Offline Capability: The app works seamlessly offline, allowing you to complete inspections in areas without internet access. Your data will sync automatically once you're back online.


Step 3: Set Up Your Preferences

Before starting your first inspection, take a moment to configure your app settings and sync your templates:

  • Set Your Preferences:

    • Go to the Settings tab in the app.

    • Adjust settings like auto-syncing, annotation, and app theme to suit your needs


Step 4: Start a New Inspection

Once your settings are configured, you’re ready to start inspecting!

Create an inspection as you normally would but be sure to check the “Use V10 reporting on this inspection” at the bottom of the page under the "Beta" section.


Step 5: Fill Out Your Report in the V10 App

Once you've created an inspection, you're ready to start utilizing the V10 app to write your reports.


Step 6: (Optional) Convert an existing inspection for use with Spectora V10

If you import inspections from ISN, use the online scheduler, or have a previously scheduled inspection that you'd like to use with Spectora V10, you can go to the inspection, click the MORE tab, and then click Convert to V10!


Step 7: (Optional) Defaulting to V10

If you give V10 a try and want to exclusively use it going forward, you can select this setting under Settings > Report Options > Default to V10!
