First survey tutorial

From download to a report you can review with confidence.

DampApp Pro helps you organise survey evidence and produce a professional PDF. It does not replace your professional judgement: check the facts, photos, conclusions and recommendations before sharing any report.

Your first survey, step by step

Step 1

Download and open the app

Install DampApp Pro on iOS or Android. The free tier lets you explore the core workflow without a payment card.

Step 2

Set up your report identity

Open Settings and save your company details: at least a company name is needed before you can start a survey. With Pro you can also add your logo and choose the report colours and fonts.

Step 3

Create a survey and use the cards

Tap Start New Survey on the home screen. The survey dashboard groups the work into cards, so you can move between property details, rooms, evidence, readings and optional assessment tools without losing your place.

Step 4

Capture evidence on site

Add observations, photographs and meter readings room by room. Use only the sections that are relevant, and record enough context for another reader to follow your reasoning.

Step 5

Review and generate the PDF

Tap Generate Report to open the preview, verify the factual details and recommendations, then tap Save and Share to send or save the PDF. To email it from your own address, set up SMTP in Settings first. Save a copy in line with your own records policy.

A simple dashboard habit

Treat each dashboard card as a part of the evidence trail. If something needs correcting in the report preview, return to the source card rather than working around it in the final wording.
