Getting Started Guide - Vision Camera App

Modified on Wed, 14 Jun 2023 at 02:55 PM

Welcome to the Vision Camera App


Truepic is the leading photo and video verification platform utilized by our clients. Truepic's Vision Camera app is a camera application available exclusively on iOS and Android devices. 


If you were instructed to use the Vision Camera app by one of our clients, please wait until you have received either an email or text message (or both) with a link that will take you directly to your inspection request for submission.



As tempting as it may be to immediately download the Vision Camera, 
do not download the Vision Camera app without a Smartlink. 

Why?
 
Your inspection is "invite-only", which means that you cannot access your specific inspection unless you have the Smartlink to direct you there. 
If you download the Vision Camera app on its own, it will not work for you. 

Please wait until you receive a Smartlink either via text message or email. 

 


You Received your Smartlink, What Now?


You will need to click directly on the link in the text message or email from a smartphone or tablet; there is no username or password required to login. If you received the link through email on a desktop, you can forward it to your smart device. Here are the steps it should take you through:


1) Open the text message with the link on your smartphone and click directly on the link



A screenshot of a text message thread is shown. The messages read "Hi Brittany, this is Brittany with Vision. We need some photos to process your request. This link will expire in 20 days - please tap the link below to begin taking photos." There is a link given after this.



2) The link will take you to the App Store or Play Store, where you can download the Vision Camera App


 
A screenshot of the Apple App Store is shown, with the page for the Vision Camera app open.




3) Once downloaded, you will be taken to the Vision Camera App, and your request will be open and ready for you

A screenshot of the Vision Camera app is shown, with the text "Truepic: Hello, Brittany! Let's take some photos." There is a checkbox for "I agree to the Terms of Service" and "Privacy Policy" and a button at the bottom labeled Get Started. At the very bottom, there is text "Not Brittany? Please Log Out" with Log Out as a clickable link.



Once again, there's no required password or username to access the app. It will automatically take you to the request where you can upload your photos.
