Jobsite photos vs phone camera — FAQ
- Do I still use my phone camera?
- Yes. FWDLink is where those shots live after you take them — by job address, ready to share and invoice.
- Why not just use Albums on the phone?
- Phone albums do not give a clean client link, crew upload, or invoice attach the way a jobsite photo app does.
- Can the crew add photos without my phone?
- Yes. Invite upload access to the job album from their phones.
