Core Workflows
Common tasks
Share a quote
Open Quote, select a job, create or edit the quote, then tap Share Quote. DetailDeck Pro prepares a PDF and opens the iOS share sheet.
Create an invoice
Create a quote first. Then tap Create Invoice to copy approved quote lines into an invoice. DetailDeck Pro is required to share invoice PDFs.
Manage job photos
Use the Photos tab to add up to 12 images at a time. Choose the phase before importing. To remove a photo, use the Delete Photo action on that image.
Enable reminders
On the Dashboard, use the bell button in Follow-Ups to schedule local notifications for incomplete future follow-ups.
Restore purchases
Open Settings, then Manage DetailDeck Pro or Restore Purchases. iOS checks App Store purchase history for the Apple ID signed in on the device.
Troubleshooting
Fast fixes
I cannot create a quote.
Create at least one job first. Quotes are tied to jobs so totals, customer context, and invoice conversion stay together.
My Pro plan is not active.
Open Settings and tap Restore Purchases. If plans do not load, confirm the device is signed in to the App Store and try again on a reliable network.
Photos are not adding.
Make sure a job is selected in Photos and that iOS has allowed photo library access. If access was denied, update permissions in the Settings app.
Reminders are not appearing.
Use the Dashboard bell button and allow notifications when iOS asks. Only incomplete follow-ups with future due dates are scheduled.
I need my app version.
Open Settings in DetailDeck. The app version and build number are listed near the top of the screen.
Privacy and Backups
Local-first records
DetailDeck stores customer records, jobs, photos, follow-ups, quotes, and invoices on the user's device unless the user chooses to export or share them through iOS.
