BuildChief for iOS

BuildChief for iOS brings complete construction site management to your iPhone and iPad with native Apple ecosystem integration. All project data syncs seamlessly across your devices through iCloud, ensuring your latest updates are available whether you're on-site with your iPhone or reviewing plans on your iPad. The app works fully offline, storing all project information locally on your device, then automatically syncs changes when you reconnect to Wi-Fi or cellular data.

The iOS version takes full advantage of iPad's larger screen with Split View support, allowing you to view project plans on one side while entering daily logs or running material calculations on the other. Stage Manager compatibility on iPad Pro lets you reference multiple projects simultaneously, perfect for contractors managing several job sites. On iPhone, the app adapts to one-handed operation with key actions accessible from the bottom of the screen, and Face ID integration provides instant secure access to your project data without typing passwords.

Native iOS features enhance every aspect of construction management. Use your iPhone camera to capture defect photos that the AI advisor analyzes immediately, or scan supplier invoices with document recognition that extracts amounts and dates automatically. Location Services track which job site you're at and suggest the relevant project when you open the app. Background App Refresh keeps your iCloud-synced data current even when the app isn't open, and system-wide sharing lets you send project reports, material lists, or budget summaries directly from BuildChief to email, Messages, or other apps through the iOS share sheet.
