Introduction

Welcome to the Vision Camera app! Truepic Vision is a digital inspection platform that provides a quick and convenient way to send verified, trustworthy images and videos directly to the requester. Vision Camera 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 app, do not do so without a smartlink. Please wait until you receive a smartlink either via text message or email. 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. 


You received your smartlink, now what?

Check out our quick start guide video! Prefer to follow step by step instructions? Read on below.



To begin, you'll need to have your smartphone or tablet handy so you can tap on the link in the text message or email you received. There is no username or password required to log in. If you received the link through email on a desktop, you can forward it to, or open it on, your smart device. 


1. Open the text message with the link on your smartphone. Tap 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. Download the Vision Camera app now.


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