### 5/5 — Innovative & Streamlined Construction Documentation

*2025-07-17*

Wish we could use this program to administer more projects. Love the ability to incorporate picture documentation in a way that’s effective, manageable, and valuable. Not to mention, viewable and shared in real-time. The process and function of the program is incredibly easy to use and makes field documentation an efficient, yet incredibly detailed without extra steps.

The Headlight team is amazing to work with and very willing to work with their clients to develop a platform that meets their needs. Quickly, I might add. Hope to continue working with Headlight and being able integrate their program in more projects. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a highly-detailed and efficient method of providing construction administration services with real-time documentation.

### 1/5 — Awful program

*2024-07-12*

I had hopes that updates would fix the lagging pdf issues, the horrible moving screen interface, the forced shutdowns or the extra sync issue copies but it hasn’t. Garbage.

### 2/5 — Still needs work

*2024-06-06*

This program still has bugs. It creates sync error pictures on its own.  There are still pdf report issues, where discrepancies, field discussions do not populate in their blocks. The interface jumps around when you tap a box to type in making it annoying to keep your place.  The program sync locks and you have to restart the program.
Overall there are better programs out there or just create your own and use that. Not worth it

### 1/5 — Absolute trash

*2024-03-29*

Update still doesn’t solve issues. This app force shuts down randomly, have to restart app to get functions to work and old reports to show up again. 
Doesn’t put discrepancies, field discussions, or issues in their report area. 
The U/I tracking for selecting areas to type moves around so it is a constant hassle to get the cursor where you want it. 
Random pic syncing issues, it doesn’t flag them they just get omitted from reports. 
Anyone thinking of using this app should use google doc and make your own report format.

Same issues after update. This app force shuts down, has syncing issues, have to restart app to get functions to work and old reports to show up again. Doesn’t put discrepancies, field discussions, or issues in their report area. The U/I tracking for selecting areas to type moves around so it is a constant hassle to get the cursor where you want it. When there are pic syncing issues, it doesn’t flag them they just get omitted from reports. Anyone thinking of using this app should use google doc and make your own report format.

A little faster for syncing,  but all the issues still are issues

### 1/5 — Not a good program

*2024-02-27*

Laggy, report inputs are redundant requiring a lot of needless copy/paste-ing, photos cannot be re-edited, and the generated reports are convoluted and unprofessional, would not recommend.

### 1/5 — Not worth the hassle

*2021-02-05*

When it works properly it’s great. Unfortunately my experience with this app over the last year has been less than ideal. My experience is that the apps only works properly maybe 10-15% of the time I’ve spent with it. It can take an hour just to sync a single sentence, that’s assuming it synchs properly at all. Same issue with submitting reports, it can take an hour just to submit a single report, again that’s when it works. I would not recommend this, there is way too many issues that never seem to get fixed. Using this in the field it needs to work as most of us don’t have time to troubleshoot issues while trying to maintain multiple projects with a system that functions so poorly.

### 2/5 — Iffy

*2020-11-03*

When it works, it’s great. When it doesn’t you lose everything that hasn’t been synced. Oh and the sync button rarely works.
