## What is PlanBridge?

Every measurement you need is already drawn on the plans. PlanBridge pulls it off, right on your phone.

THE OLD WAY
Pull out the ruler. Find the sheet's scale. Lay it on the drawing. Read the number. Convert it in your head. Five steps, every measurement, all day.

In PlanBridge it's two taps.

MEASURE OFF THE PLANS
• Open a plan PDF or a photo of a sheet
• Set the scale once. The app reads most printed scales and asks you to confirm, so a measurement is never quietly wrong
• Tap two points for a real dimension. Trace an area for square footage
• Feet and inches, or metric
• Big sets stay in order, cover sheet to final page

MARK UP THE PLAN
• Take photos in the app, or import them from your camera roll
• Pin photos and notes to the exact spot on the drawing
• Photos save to the job, so the shots that matter stop drowning in your camera roll
• Labels switch on and off, and any measurement shows its number with a tap, so the drawing stays readable
• Checklists and numbered lists, with your own saved templates

THE JOB KEEPS A MEMORY
• Sort photos and notes into phases of the job: rough in, inspection, drywall, finish
• Turn phases on and off to see any stage of the work
• A year after the walls close up, open the plan and see what's behind them
• Hand the record to the homeowner, the GC, or the next trade

YOUR WORK STAYS YOURS
• Everything lives on your phone. We never see your plans
• Works offline. No signal needed on site
• No account required. Open the app and start measuring

SHARE THE WHOLE JOB
• Send a set to anyone by text, email or AirDrop, straight from the app
• Your measurements, photos and notes ride along, at full plan quality
• They open it on any device. If they have PlanBridge, it opens as a live job they can keep working in

## Version history (last 3 releases)

### 1.1.1 — 2026-09-01

Your first set of plans is now free for 30 days.

After that it is $9.99 once for unlimited jobs, with no subscription ever. When the trial ends the app goes read only, and every plan, measurement, photo and note you made stays on your phone and stays visible.

Also in this update:

Opening a set of plans someone shared with you no longer creates a second, empty job.
The Sheets list scrolls properly again.
Plans no longer get stuck on "Processing plans".
Measuring, photos, pins and notes now all behave consistently once a trial has ended.

Everything still works with no signal, and your plans never leave your phone.

### 1.1 — 2026-08-25

Sharing a job now sends your plans at full quality, with your measurements, photos and notes attached.

Also fixed: plan rendering on large sets, and a number of sharing bugs.

### 1.0 — 2026-08-12

No release notes.
