Introduction

Your mobile app Home Screen is divided into four sections - Findings, Inspections, Goal This Week, and Inspection Leaders. This article will focus on Findings. 

Findings

The Highwire mobile app allows you to create Findings outside of a formal inspection, allowing inspectors to easily document and track both positive and negative observations at any time during their fieldwork.

The Findings section on your Home Screen shows you a summary of your findings for the past 30 days:

Findings Categories

Each category can be defined as follows:

Priority of Findings

A number next to a category indicates a count of findings within that category:

In the example above, there are three One-offs, five Uncorrected, and zero Corrected findings..

Creating a Finding

Creating a Finding from your home screen is simple.

1. Click on the blue “+” in the lower right corner:

2. You will see a choice between Inspection or Finding. Select Finding:

3. You are immediately brought to the Add Attachment pop-up when you click on Finding. Since most One-off findings are observed in real-time in the field, they are typically accompanied by a picture or video, but you can also Continue Without Attachment:
