*Mobile App

Broker Brain offers all registered Broker Brain customers a free mobile app for use with your Droid or iPhone. This app gives you the ability to take and instantly upload property photos directly into the related property in Broker Brain. Photos can be batch uploaded for single or multiple properties, and all photo information that Broker Brain tracks can be set for each photo in the app.

Date/Time Stamp Info

Photos that are uploaded through this app can bear a Date/Time stamp if you enable the Apply date and time stamp to photos on upload feature in Site Settings. Click here for information on using the Site Settings screen.

Important:

• If you are using an iPhone and you turn on the Date/Time Stamp feature, uploaded photos MUST be taken from within the mobile app for the Date/Time stamp feature to work. Photos selected from your phone's photo library will not bear a Date/Time stamp when uploaded. This is due to Apple iPhone restrictions. Droid users will not have this issue.
