Write a detailed description of your issue.
Why is an incorrect address displaying for my location?
Sometimes the VuSpex mobile app will display a nearby location due to accuracy issues with GPS.
The Inspector should be able to verify your exact location during the live video inspection. Feel free to bring this to their attention during the inspection.
How can I check my internet speed?
Click the link below to run an Internet speed test:
Higher numbers are better.
We highly recommend anything above 10-15 Mbps to have a better experience.
What kind of internet connection do I need for virtual inspections?
How do I do a Quick Test?
The Quick Test button has been removed from the VuSpex APP and is no longer needed.
A ‘Quick Test’ is not required, BUT a good internet connection at your inspection site is required for a successful virtual inspection.
We recommend doing an “Internet Speed Test” prior to your Virtual Inspection to make sure you have a good enough internet connection.

How do I schedule an inspection?
Good question! We find that everyone does things a little differently.
Most areas are still scheduling by phone, text, or verbally. Some Agencies are using the VuSpex GO/VuSpex APP to schedule.
Ask your Inspector, call the building department or check the website for the building department for instructions on how to schedule.
Why is my Inspection Report missing some photos and/or videos?
Don’t panic!
If you are missing some photos and/or videos from your Inspection Report Summary, then it is likely we can recover the inspection media.

Can I record my inspection?
Inspectors
Yes. You can record as many videos as you like for any amount of time.
Record the entire inspection and capture still image screenshots while recording video. You can also talk to and hear the mobile caller at the same time.
How to Record: In the live inspection window, click the small video record button “REC” to record during your inspection. You will hear a “beep” sound and see a timer counting. Stop recording by clicking the same “REC” red icon. You will hear another beep when the recording stops, then soon after you will see the thumbnail of the video display in the photos and videos tab of the live inspection window.
We recommend planning shorter 30-second to 5-minute recordings with audio narration, but you can record long sessions if desired. For example, 30-60 minutes is fine. (A series of brief videos is easier to review after the inspection than one really long video.)
Contractors / Field Agents
VuSpex GO and VuSpex APP is limited to brief video clips.
The Contractor portal is limited to a 1 GB file size for uploads. We recommend smaller video sizes.
See this page for more information about video recording settings:
