Common Issues
Solutions to frequently encountered problems in QuickInspect and YachtInspect.
App Not Loading
If the app is not loading or appears stuck on a loading screen:
- Check your internet connection -- ensure WiFi or mobile data is active and working
- Force close and reopen -- swipe the app away from your device's app switcher, then reopen it
- Clear the app cache -- go to your device settings and clear the cache for QuickInspect or YachtInspect (this does not delete your data)
- Restart your device -- a full restart can resolve temporary system issues
- Update the app -- ensure you are running the latest version from the App Store or Google Play
Tip
Clearing the app cache resolves most loading issues. Your reports and data remain safely stored in the cloud and will re-sync when the app loads.
Findings Not Syncing
If findings created on one device are not appearing on another, or show a sync warning:
- Check your internet connection -- syncing requires an active connection
- Check offline mode -- the app uses local SQLite storage for offline support. Findings created offline will sync automatically when connectivity is restored
- Force a manual sync -- pull down on the findings list to trigger a sync
- Wait for upload -- large datasets with many photos may take time to upload, especially on slower connections
Note
The app stores data locally using SQLite for offline capability. All offline changes sync automatically once you regain internet access.
Report Generation Issues
If PDF generation fails or the output does not look correct:
Images Not Loading in PDF
- Ensure all images have finished syncing before generating the report
- Check that images are not corrupted -- try viewing them in the app first
- Large images take longer to process; wait for the generation to complete
Large Reports Taking Too Long
- Reports with many images or findings may take longer to generate
- Close other apps to free device memory
- Ensure sufficient storage space on your device
- Try generating during a stable internet connection
Layout Issues
- Use the real-time preview in the Report Designer to check layout before exporting
- Verify that elements are positioned correctly using drag-and-drop
- Check that the findings table and image table elements have data to display
Warning
Very large reports with hundreds of images may require significant device memory. If generation fails repeatedly, try reducing the number of images or splitting the report into sections.
Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) Setup Problems
If you are having trouble setting up or using 2FA:
- Ensure your authenticator app is working -- 2FA uses TOTP (Time-based One-Time Password) with an authenticator app such as Google Authenticator or Authy
- Check the time on your device -- TOTP codes are time-sensitive. If your device clock is incorrect, codes will not match
- Use recovery codes -- if you cannot access your authenticator app, use one of the recovery codes provided during 2FA setup
- Contact support -- if you are locked out and have no recovery codes, email support@quickinspect.me with your account email for assistance
Tip
Save your recovery codes in a secure location when you first set up 2FA. These are your backup if you lose access to your authenticator app.
Company-Enforced 2FA
If your company admin has enforced 2FA, you must set it up within the configured grace period. After the grace period expires, you will be required to complete 2FA setup before accessing the app.
To set up 2FA:
- Go to the Profile tab
- Tap Two-Factor Authentication
- Follow the on-screen instructions to link your authenticator app
Biometric Login Issues
If fingerprint or Face ID login is not working:
- Verify biometrics work on your device -- test fingerprint or Face ID in your device's system settings
- Re-enable biometric login in the app -- go to the Profile tab, tap Biometric Login, toggle it off, then on again
- You will need to authenticate with your password when re-enabling biometric login
- Ensure your device supports biometrics -- not all devices have fingerprint or Face ID hardware
Note
Biometric login is a convenience feature. You can always fall back to email/password authentication if biometrics are not working.
