Why It's Different

Built for the truck,
not the office.

Most field-service software is built for dispatchers — the people sitting in an office assigning jobs to technicians. That's not who Field Stub is for.

Field Stub is for the technician on the road. The solo IT contractor running their own MSP. The break-fix tech driving between sites with a trunk full of gear. The sysadmin moonlighting on weekends. The person who needs to walk out of a client site with a clean record of what they did, what they swapped out, how long they were there, and how many miles they drove to get there.

It works offline because cell service in the back of a server room doesn't. It runs on your phone because your phone is always with you. It stays on your device because your clients' configurations and contacts shouldn't live on someone else's server.

Free for tracking up to 5 clients. Pro unlocks unlimited clients, PDF reports, and on-device voice transcription — for $39, once.


Features

Everything you need.
Nothing you don't.

🏢
Clients, sites, and assets

Organize your work the way the field actually works. Each client has sites. Each site has assets (servers, switches, NAS units, workstations). Each visit logs what you did to which asset.

⏱️
Visit tracking

Start a visit when you arrive. Log photos, parts, voice notes, and work entries as you go. End the visit when you leave — your start and end locations, duration, and mileage are captured automatically.

📸
Photos and parts

Snap photos of cabling runs, error screens, or before/after states. Log parts you swapped or installed, with quantities and notes. Everything attaches to the visit.

🎙️
Voice notes (Pro)

Record voice notes in the field, transcribed on-device using Apple's Speech framework. Audio never leaves your phone — useful when you're describing something a client doesn't want on a third-party server.

📄
PDF reports (Pro)

Export a professional PDF report for any visit — work performed, parts used, photos, time on site, mileage. Hand it to a client, attach it to an invoice, or keep it for your records.

📊
CSV export

Export your visits to CSV across any date range — free for all users. Drop them into your invoicing system, accounting software, or a spreadsheet for tax season.

📍
Mileage and locations

Each visit captures start and end coordinates, with distance estimated as a reference. Log additional manual mileage when the road route differs. Map preview embedded in your PDF reports.

🔒
Stays on your device

All data is stored locally on your iPhone using SwiftData. No accounts, no analytics, no tracking, no servers. Your client list, visit history, and photos never leave your phone.


Privacy

Your clients' data
is your business.

🔒

Nothing leaves your phone.

If you're a contractor working with small businesses, medical practices, law firms, or anyone with sensitive data, you've probably been asked: "where does this app store our information?" Field Stub's answer is simple: on your phone, and nowhere else.

No accounts. No analytics SDKs. No crash reporters. No third-party trackers. Voice transcription runs on-device using Apple's Speech framework — audio is never uploaded to Apple's servers or any other server. Payment is handled by Apple — Field Stub never sees your card details.

FAQ

Common questions.

Why $39?

Because it's a professional tool, priced like one. A paper logbook costs $20, lasts a year, and can't generate a PDF. Field Stub is a one-time $39 — no annual renewal, no per-seat fees, no "Pro tier" creep. Pay once, own it.

Does it sync between my devices?

Not in v1. Field Stub is single-device, on-device storage today. iCloud sync is on the roadmap for a future update — when it ships, your existing data will migrate automatically and stay private to your iCloud account.

How does the 5-client cap work?

Free covers up to 5 clients (active or archived). If you hit the cap, you can either archive a client you no longer service, delete one, or unlock Pro for unlimited. Visits, sites, assets, and other data have no limit on Free.

Where is my data stored?

On your iPhone, using Apple's SwiftData framework. Photos and audio recordings are stored as files in the app's local storage. Nothing is sent to a server — there is no server. If you delete the app, all data is permanently removed.

What if I switch phones?

In v1, you'd want to wait for iCloud sync (planned) before relying on phone migration for your data. Your Pro entitlement does follow your Apple ID — tap "Restore Purchase" on the new device and Pro features unlock immediately.

Is voice transcription really on-device?

Yes. Field Stub uses Apple's Speech framework with on-device recognition strictly enforced — the request will fail rather than fall back to network recognition. If your device or language doesn't support on-device transcription, the app records the audio without transcription.

Can I export my data?

Yes. CSV export across any date range is included in Free. Per-visit PDF reports — formatted with photos, parts, mileage, and a map preview — are a Pro feature. Both export to standard formats nothing else needs to read.

Do you sell my data?

No. There's nothing to sell. Nothing leaves your device — no client list, no visit data, no analytics. There's no server to leak from because there's no server.


A clean record of every visit.

Free for up to 5 clients. Unlock Pro for $39 — once, never again. Launching soon on the App Store.
