Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Outbuild construction iPad app?
Outbuild’s iPad app opens your live Lookahead plan on site. Lookahead tasks stay tied to the Master Schedule, so the field works from the same plan the office trusts.
What work gets done from the iPad?
You can create and edit tasks in the field, update percent complete, adjust start dates day by day, clean up task assignments, and assign teammates to follow a delay. You can also add custom tags to track issues your way.
How does the iPad app help keep everyone aligned?
When you have internet, changes sync to the cloud and update live. The whole team sees what changed in the field without waiting for a call, email, or end-of-day recap.
How do progress updates and roadblocks work on iPad?
Update progress directly on the task. Then log a roadblock by clicking the cone, adding a description, assigning an owner, and setting a due date. The owner receives an email notification. The roadblock shows in the Roadblocks Log and stays tied to the task inside the iPad app.
How does the iPad app help crews focus in the field?
Use filters to show only what matters, for example, concrete tasks. That gives you a clean, coordinated plan to review with the crew in real time, right where the work is happening.
Does the iPad app work with low connectivity?
Offline Mode supports field work when connectivity drops. When connection returns, updates sync so the plan stays current for everyone.
