Upload a blueprint, place it on the map, and your photos show up on top of it as they come in. It's a quick way to see where on the plan each photo was taken.

Seeing photos on a blueprint
When a photo's location overlaps a placed blueprint, the photo shows on top of it. New photos land on the blueprint as they come in.
Note: Photos without location data don't show on the map.

Why isn’t my photo exactly where it should be?
Why isn’t my photo exactly where it should be?
Photo placement is based on the photo’s GPS data, which is approximate — not exact. Depending on signal strength and other factors, a photo can land slightly off from where you were actually standing when you took it.
For the most accurate placement, make sure location services are on in your device's settings and you have a clear GPS signal when taking the photo.
iPhone: Settings → Privacy & Security → Location Services → make sure it’s on, then scroll to CompanyCam and confirm it’s set to “While Using the App” (or “Always”)
Android: Settings → Location → make sure it’s on, then check under App permissions that CompanyCam has location access allowed
