General Troubleshooting
If you're unable to upload photos to reports or the app shuts down when attempting to take a photo, the following general troubleshooting steps can help resolve most issues.
Sign Out and Sign Back In
First, try signing out of the Happyco app and then signing back in. This simple step can often refresh your app's settings and resolve any minor glitches.
Update the App
Next, check for any available updates for the Happyco app in your device's app store. Installing the latest version of the app can resolve issues caused by outdated software.
Avoid Uninstalling the App
Avoid uninstalling the app as a first step, as this could lead to the loss of unsynchronized report data and photos. Always try the above steps before considering app reinstallation.
Specific Issue: App Crashes During Photo Upload
If the Happyco inspection app is shutting down when you try to take a photo, particularly during a pre-opening service inspection, follow these steps:
Ensure App is Up-to-Date
Ensure you have the latest version of the Happyco inspection app installed on your device. An outdated app can lead to stability issues, including crashes.
Check Device Compatibility
Check the software version of your device to ensure it is compatible with the Happyco inspection app. Incompatibility between the app and your device's software can cause unexpected shutdowns.
Contact Support
If the problem persists after updating the app and checking device compatibility, contact Happyco support for further assistance. Be prepared to provide error logs from the app's settings menu to help diagnose the issue.
Transferring Photos Between Inspections
To transfer photos from a move-in inspection to a move-out inspection, follow these steps:
Manual Photo Save and Upload
Manually save the photos by clicking on them and downloading them to your device. Then, re-upload them into the correct inspection report. This process is more straightforward on the web by logging into https://manage.happyco.com/.
Limitations
Unfortunately, the system does not allow for direct transfer of photos between inspections. Manual download and upload is currently the only method to move photos between different inspection reports.
By following these guidelines, you should be able to resolve most photo upload issues in the Happyco app. For any unresolved issues or further assistance, don't hesitate to reach out to Happyco support.
