# Field mode: new home, on-site reports, smarter scan

Version: 1.0.37  
Date: 2026-05-15

Completely redesigned experience for field technicians — tap once and start recording, fill compliance reports with voice and photos, and fix scan fields before saving.

## What's new

- **New technician home screen.** The app now opens straight into record mode — tap the mic and you're recording instantly, no navigation needed. An inline project picker, a site briefing map, and a tappable stats line (notes / walks / docs) keep the job at your fingertips.
- **Fill compliance reports on-site.** Contractors can now capture a compliance report without leaving the app: photograph the asset, record a voice note with a live waveform, confirm the step with a photo preview, and submit — all in one flow. A pending-report banner appears on the home screen when a report is waiting.
- **Editable scan fields.** After scanning a nameplate, invoice, or receipt, every extracted field is now editable directly on the result screen before you save — no need to correct things later in the back office.
- **Voice ask navigates to risks, tasks, and summaries.** Ask "what are the risks on this project?" or "show me the tasks" and the app jumps straight to the right screen.
- **Photos carry GPS to the site plan.** GPS is now extracted directly from photo EXIF data on both camera shots and library picks — each photo is auto-pinned to the correct position on the PDF site plan.

## Improvements

- Photo picker opens the camera directly instead of showing an action sheet first.
- The stats line hides while you're recording so it doesn't overlap the timer.
- The project picker auto-dismisses once GPS resolves to a project — one less tap.
- Logout moved out of the home top bar into company settings, decluttering the main screen.
- Document scan now uses Vision Camera for better focus and macro support when photographing nameplates.

## Under the hood

- Fixed a crash on Android affecting some devices.
- Various type-safety improvements across the compliance and scan modules.
