Section 3: Using Mobile Edition in the Field
Dictation
What some valuers are doing to avoid typing is carry around a separate digital or analogue Dictaphone,
sometimes even manually e-mailing their audio files from their laptop while in the field to ensure that
dictation files get to their admin staff before the daily 3pm rush.
This is a practical solution, albeit a clumsy one for the user who ends up juggling multiple devices, internet
connections and fiddling with various pieces of software. To make the process far more elegant and
efficient, we’ve simply added in a “Talk” tab option. In the example below, the valuer has noticed that the
fixtures condition in Bedroom 1 requires further qualification than can be recorded using the drop down
boxes.
The valuer then flips the bottom Tab bar view from “Type” to “Talk” and is presented with the dictation
interface as shown:
The valuer then presses “Record” and the screen will now look as per below:
The valuer simply talks into the device’s microphone. The audio will record from the handsets default
microphone – if you normally use a Bluetooth headset and microphone, you can simply talk into these
devices as you normally would when talking on a phone call.
