Review findings
Once your capture is processed by AI, you get a draft narrative: title, classification, content, recommendation. It is rarely perfect on the first pass — that is why Lumos Capture offers a quick review modal on mobile to adjust before adding to the report. This page describes the modal and the choices it gives you.
Open review
On an inspection’s detail, in the narratives list:
- Tap the narrative card you want to review.
- The Review the finding modal opens full-screen.
The modal is designed for quick mobile review. For in-depth review, use the full inspection editor on the web app (via the Lumos tab or at the office).
Original capture section
At the top of the modal, a collapsible Original capture block shows the photos you took. It is your reference to verify that the generated narrative matches what you captured.
Tap the arrow to collapse/expand.
Classification section
The Classification block lists four tappable rows that define where and what in the report:
Section
Tap to open a building section picker (Plumbing, Roofing, Safety, etc., per your template). The AI proposes an initial section; you can correct it.
Sub-section
Tap to open a sub-section picker within the chosen section (Kitchen sink, Water heater, Sump pump, etc.).
Type
Four possible narrative types, selectable via picker:
- Information — neutral observation without severity judgment.
- Limitation — what the inspection does not cover for this component.
- Deficiency — observed anomaly, with associated recommendation.
- Method — how you proceeded (visual, instrument, drone, etc.).
The AI picks an initial type based on your audio note’s content. Verify and adjust if needed.
Severity
Levels per your template (default 7 BNQ levels: No issues, Monitor, Warning, Deficiency, Urgent, Specialist required, Hazard). The AI proposes an initial severity based on the language used in your note.
Verify with your professional judgment — this is a point where the AI may err.
Finding title section
Simple text field with the AI-generated title (e.g. “Leaking kitchen faucet”). Tap to edit.
Best practice: a clear, descriptive title that helps identify the finding in the final report’s list.
Content section
Per your template, several structured fields are offered (collapsible):
- Identification — precise description of the observed component.
- Inspection method — what you did (visual, instrument, etc.).
- Consequences — risks or impacts.
- Recommendation — what the client should do (consult, monitor, fix).
Each field contains an AI draft based on your capture. Tap to expand and edit.
Recommendation and deadline
The Recommendation section offers a specific feature: you can include a standardized deadline phrase at the end of the recommendation.
- Include a deadline phrase toggle.
- Three radio options:
- Before the condition’s deadline — typical in pre-purchase (“A new inspection is recommended before the inspection condition deadline.”).
- Immediately — for Urgent or Hazard findings (“To be corrected immediately.”).
- Custom — free text you enter yourself.
This avoids having to retype the deadline phrase manually for every finding.
Use sections in report toggle
Below the content, a Use sections in report toggle:
- Enabled — the finding renders with section headers (Identification, Consequences, Recommendation, etc.).
- Disabled — the finding renders as a single continuous paragraph.
This is a final-report formatting choice. See Report Template — Default settings for the default setting.
Photos section
List of photos attached to the finding (“Photos (1/5)”):
- Thumbnail of each photo + red X button to remove.
- + Add card to add an extra photo (from iOS camera roll or by relaunching the camera).
Search the narrative bank button
Orange link at the bottom of the content: 🔖 Search the narrative bank.
Tap to open the bank from mobile. You can:
- Search for an existing narrative that matches your observation.
- Select it to replace the AI-generated content.
- Or to merge with your draft if you just want to start from an established phrasing.
The mobile bank reflects the same structure as on the web (system, personal, team). See Chapter 8 — The Narrative Bank for details.
Footer — Delete / Draft / Add to report
Three possible actions at the bottom of the modal:
Delete button (red)
If the capture is not relevant (triggered by mistake, duplicate), tap Delete. The finding is removed permanently.
Save draft button
The finding is saved as a draft in the inspection. It does not appear in the final report until you explicitly add it.
To use when:
- You hesitate on classification or phrasing and want to come back to it at the office.
- You want to collect many captures in the field and review everything calmly at the end.
Add to report button (orange)
The finding is added to the final report in the chosen section/sub-section. It is the finalization action — use it when you are confident the finding is ready.
You can always re-modify it later via the inspection editor on the web app.
