RedlineRoom · Pencil Punch Lists
RedlineRoom turns your Apple Pencil redlines into a numbered punch list. Circle a problem on a PDF drawing, scribble the note, and the app transcribes your handwriting into a clean, numbered item pinned to the exact spot on the sheet — then export the list to PDF or CSV. Markup and export are always free.
Email us with any question, bug, or feedback. We usually reply within a couple of business days. Mentioning your iPad model and iPadOS version helps.
RedlineRoom Unlimited removes the free tier’s transcription cap (a fair-use limit of 150 transcriptions per device per day applies to every account). Subscriptions are billed by Apple through your Apple Account and renew automatically until cancelled.
To manage, cancel, or turn off auto-renew:
Restore a purchase
If you reinstall the app or switch devices, tap Restore Purchases on the paywall or in Settings inside RedlineRoom to re-activate an existing subscription. Restores use the Apple Account that made the original purchase.
Refunds
All purchases and refunds are handled by Apple. Request a refund at reportaproblem.apple.com.
Is there a free version?
Yes. Drawing, the running punch list, and PDF/CSV export are always free with no limits. The free tier also includes 20 AI transcriptions every 30 days. You can always type an item by hand for free, even after reaching the cap. Unlimited only lifts the transcription cap.
What does Unlimited cost?
Do I circle first or write first?
Either order works. Circle the detail and write a short note beside it; when you pause, the circle and its note become one numbered item. Zoomed far out on a large sheet? Zoom in a little so the circle and note are easy to draw.
Does it work offline?
Markup, the punch list, and PDF/CSV export work fully offline. Transcriptions captured while offline queue up and complete automatically when you reconnect (while you're within your free transcriptions, or with Unlimited). You can always type an item in right away.
What happens to my drawings and photos?
Nothing is sent for AI transcription until you allow it — the app asks the first time, and you can turn it off any time in Settings → Privacy & AI transcription. Once allowed, only a cropped image of each markup is sent — the markup itself plus a small surrounding area of the sheet, never the whole page — to our service, which passes it to Anthropic’s Claude for handwriting-to-text. We don’t store the images on our servers. We never send your full drawing or project names, and there is no account; the crop contains whatever is written inside it. Photos you attach to an item stay on your device and appear only in exports you choose to share. See our Privacy Policy for the full detail.
The transcription looks wrong — what do I do?
RedlineRoom shows its confidence and flags anything unclear for you to review. Every transcription opens for you to confirm or edit, so nothing is auto-accepted; items you haven’t confirmed stay marked “Needs review” in the list and in exports. If you see consistent misreads on a certain handwriting style, email us a description — it helps us improve.
