The Pocket Survey Alternative built for damp & mould specialists.
TL;DR: try it yourself, today
With DampApp Pro™ you're in control from minute one. Search the iOS App Store or Google Play, download for free, and complete up to 25 full surveys on your device — no account, no commitment. Try the standards-cited AI report writer, the moisture-meter photo reading and offline PDF export yourself before you decide.
Pocket Survey is an established, multi-sector surveying platform. DampApp Pro™ takes a different, damp-and-mould-specialist approach: a 100% native offline database, AI report wording that cites the applicable standard (BS 5250, HHSRS, Awaab's Law), and AI photo analysis that reads your moisture meter — all self-serve from the App Store and Google Play.

Why damp specialists choose DampApp Pro™
Damp and mould work has its own evidence standards, statutory duties and diagnostics. DampApp Pro™ is built specifically for it — so the workflow, the report wording and the compliance references fit the job rather than a generic template.
1No Desk Work Late at Night
Cut down late-evening desk administration. Type or speak raw, shorthand observations on your phone, and AI Polish expands them into structured technical paragraphs that you review and edit before export.
2Awaab's Law Compliance
Awaab's Law calls for prompt investigation, clear records and EXIF-timestamped photos for mould and damp triage. DampApp Pro™ structures your logs and hazard categories to help social housing teams and independent contractors build a defensible, dated record.
3Branded PDF reports, finished on site
Export clean, corporate-branded PDFs complete with your qualifications (e.g. CSRT, CSSW), business logo, and diagnostic matrices before you walk out of the building.
Frequently asked questions
Is DampApp Pro a good alternative to Pocket Survey for damp & mould work?▾
Pocket Survey is a multi-sector surveying platform; DampApp Pro is a damp-and-mould specialist app. If your work centres on damp, mould, timber and condensation, DampApp Pro keeps the workflow, report wording and compliance references aligned to that — offline capture, on-device PDF, psychrometrics and standards-cited AI wording. Compare both against the breadth of work you do before deciding.
Does DampApp Pro work fully offline?▾
Yes. Capture is offline-first and the PDF is generated on-device, so you can complete a whole survey and export the report without mobile reception. Data is saved on the device first and syncs to the cloud across your own signed-in devices, with a backup, when you reconnect.
What does the AI report writer actually do?▾
You type or dictate shorthand observations and AI Polish expands them into structured report prose that cites the applicable standard (for example BS 5250, HHSRS or Awaab’s Law). You review and edit the wording before export — nothing is published without your sign-off.
How is the AI priced — are there per-report charges?▾
The free tier includes a few trial AI Polish runs. Pro includes a daily AI allowance through us, and you can optionally add your own Google Gemini or OpenAI key. There is no per-report mark-up on top of your subscription; the published price is in the app, with regional pricing in the stores.
Can I try DampApp Pro before subscribing?▾
Yes. Download free on the App Store or Google Play and run trial surveys on site — testing the AI report writer, the moisture-meter photo reading and offline PDF export — before you commit.
