# Add To Observation on Mobile

## Add to Observation

The **Add to Observation** feature lets you continue building an existing observation as you inspect, without having to navigate back to the same report section each time you discover another related issue.

A common example is windows. While inspecting the exterior, you might document a cracked basement window and add it to a "Window Repairs Needed" observation. As you continue through the inspection, you may find several more damaged windows in different areas of the home. Instead of navigating back to the Windows section each time, simply select the additional photos and choose **Add to Observation**. Search for the existing observation, and the new photos are instantly attached.

When you're finished, place your cursor in the observation and run **Photo Captions to Bullets**. The AI combines the voice-to-text captions from all attached photos into a single, detailed observation that clearly documents every issue.

This workflow offers several advantages:

* Navigate to the observation only once during the inspection.
* Continue adding related photos from anywhere in the report.
* Build comprehensive observations that include every related defect.
* Leverage voice-to-text photo captions to generate detailed bullet points automatically.
* Reduce duplicate comments while creating cleaner, more organized reports.
* Complete documentation faster with fewer interruptions to your inspection workflow.

The **Add to Observation** feature is especially powerful when combined with **Photo Captions to Bullets**, allowing inspectors to create highly detailed observations with minimal effort while maintaining a fast, mobile-first workflow.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.scribeware.com/advanced-workflows/add-to-observation-on-mobile.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
