Madegood

Walk the job once. Hand over the proof.

Madegood is a snag list for people who finish a site and have to hand it over. You go round room by room, record what still needs doing, and pin each item on the photograph where you saw it. Settled items get marked off as they are dealt with. When the job is done, the whole thing becomes one document that shows what was raised, by whom, when, and what is left open.

What it does

Nothing leaves the phone. Madegood holds no internet permission, has no account and no analytics, and never asks you for a permission — the only entry in its manifest that is not its own is Google Play's billing marker, which is how the pack is paid for. Your jobs, your photographs and your notes are in the app's own private storage. The only thing that goes anywhere is a pack you choose to save or send, and it goes where you choose to send it. The privacy policy says exactly what that means.

What it costs

Walking a job, recording snags, pinning photographs and reading the list back are free, and they stay free. The pack — the document that goes to somebody else — is the paid part: either once, or by the year. Payment is handled by Google Play; a yearly plan renews on its own until it is cancelled in the Play Store.

The look

Madegood starts in Hi-Vis: white, ink and marking yellow, the colours of a site. There are three other looks — Concrete, Nightwork and Site Stores — and they come with the pack.

Languages

Madegood is written in eight: English, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Dutch, Polish and Portuguese. It follows the language of your phone, and you can set it by hand.
