Comparing Site Audit Pro and Punch List?

Published September 23, 2026. All Site Audit Pro prices and feature boundaries verified September 15, 2026 against Apple's US App Store listing and Site Audit Pro's own pricing page (source links inline).

Disclosure: we make Punch List, one of the two apps on this page. Site Audit Pro is a well-regarded app, and this page says so where it is true.

The short answer

Start with the way you work. Punch List lets you capture punch list issues, mark up photos, and keep up to eight photos on an item for free, with no account. Upgrade to Pro when you need branded PDF reports. Site Audit Pro is a one-time $12.90 purchase that includes its core PDF reports, with an optional Cloud subscription for multi-photo items, web editing, and sync. If you need to try the capture workflow before paying anything, that is Punch List.

Site Audit Pro's US listing shows a $12.90 purchase and optional in-app subscriptions of $7.49 a month or $64.99 a year, verified September 15, 2026. Punch List Pro is $9.99 a month or $79.99 a year on the web.

Both apps produce reports. The difference is where the paywall sits: Site Audit Pro charges up front and includes reporting, Punch List is free to capture and charges for the report. Compare the features you actually use on a walk, not the feature counts.

The report Punch List produces

This is the PDF preview from the shipped app, not a mockup: cover details, one row per item with location and trade, and the photos you attached. Reports carry your company name and logo. PDF reports require Pro; everything you captured to build one is free.

Who should choose Punch List

Punch List fits people who want to capture a punch walk on the device in their hand, document each defect with several annotated photos, and then use Pro to hand off a branded report. It is a dedicated punch list app for iPhone, iPad, and Android, in the field since 2016 with 4.6 stars across 3,548 App Store ratings. Items are organized by location and trade, lists are unlimited on the free tier, and nothing leaves your device until you export or share.

  • You want to try before you pay. Download, walk a job, attach up to eight photos to every item, and mark them up, all free with no account.
  • Your photos are evidence, not a feed. Several angles of one defect, annotated, in the report row for that item.
  • You have a crew. Team seats deploy through your MDM with one license key and no per-user accounts. See the enterprise page.

When Site Audit Pro may fit better

An honest list. Site Audit Pro may be the better choice if any of these are true:

  • Its one-time purchase covers your reporting. The $12.90 app includes core PDF reports. If that output is all you need, you pay once and you are done.
  • You already have projects in it. Punch List offers no importer for Site Audit Pro projects. Finishing active projects where they are is the practical path.

Both products can produce reports. Compare the features you actually use.

Capture is free. The free app includes unlimited punch lists, up to eight photos per item with annotation and cropping, sorting and filtering, and customizable field labels, with no time limit and no account. PDF reports, digital signatures, and import and export require Punch List Pro, which is $9.99 a month or $79.99 a year on the web.

Can I migrate Site Audit Pro projects into Punch List automatically?
No. Punch List does not offer a direct importer for Site Audit Pro projects, and we do not promise one. The practical path is to finish active projects in Site Audit Pro and start new ones in Punch List.
Does Punch List send assignments to teammates?
Assignment in Punch List records the trade or person responsible on the item, and that shows in the report. Sharing is a separate action: you export a PDF report or a .pnch file and send it. There is no live notification to a teammate's device.
Does Punch List work offline?
Yes. Punch List runs entirely on your device, so you can capture items and photos with no signal on the job site. Your data stays on your device until you choose to export or share it.
Is Punch List available on iPhone and Android?
Yes. Punch List is on the App Store for iPhone and iPad and on Google Play for Android. Both apps share the same .pnch file format, so punch lists move between platforms.

Free to capture. Pro when you need the report.

Download Punch List on iOS and Android, walk a job, and attach up to eight photos per item at no cost. Pro is $79.99 a year when you need PDF reports.
