The Phone3D app is for Android phones or tablets or Windows Phones. The Phone3D app itself is free and may be installed on multiple phones or tablets. Phone3D uses Cloud3D Services with your Internet connection to transfer data. You may demo a report in Phone3D without a Cloud3D Services account, but you must sign up and enable a personal account to transfer your actual mobile reports to and from Phone3D and your main 3D Inspection System software.

How to turn on Cloud3D Services:
-
1. Sign-up for Cloud3D Services. Note that you must have a current software subscription to use Cloud3D Services.
-

-
3. In your regular 3D Inspection Systems 11.3 or higher software, switch to the Report Writer. Click Preferences > Preferences. Click Cloud3D and enable Cloud3D Services. Click OK when done. Note: When you next close and reopen your 3D software, the Office Management Pocket3D Inspections button will be re-labeled Cloud3D Inspections. However the button will work immediately with cloud as soon as it is enabled in preferences.
Use your User name (AKA Activation ID or Account ID, usually your email used during initial activation of your desktop software) and password to Login to your Cloud3D account when sending or retrieving reports, or the login provided to you by your employer. Employers may easily manage all their inspector logins from the report writer Preferences Cloud3D Services tab in the main software. If multiple inspectors are using your Cloud3D Services account, each should be certain to ONLY use the login assigned to them to avoid accidentally overwriting a report.

2. Select the desired completed report and click OK to convert it back into the regular program.
Note about special graphical forms (WDO, Wind Mitigation, HUD, etc.): Phone3D works exceptionally well for regular narrative style form groups used for most inspections. However if you use a special graphical form that prints to a pre-designed set layout, please note the following caveats, since Phone3D does not know when a form is designed to print graphically. Do not use the copy heading or subheading option since graphical forms can only print existing fields as designed onto the specially designed final printout. Only insert photos into any fields specifically designated to accept them in the final graphical form, as they will not otherwise work or be accessible. Only insert a single photo into each such designated photo field. Where a photo section is available in a graphical form, usually there are multiple fields for inserting the photos. None of these restrictions apply to regular narrative style form groups. (To verify whether a particular form group is graphical or not, switch to the regular Report Writer and click File > New Inspection to view your forms groups. White icons in the listing are narrative; Yellow icons are graphical)
