Where: web portal, a day on the Field Efficiency tab. Needs: the Org Admin or Workforce Manager role to replay anyone; others can replay only their own day.
When you finish: you can open a day, drive the playback from the keyboard, and read what the route does and does not prove.
Day replay plays back one crew member's day on a map: where they went, and each capture appearing at the moment it was taken. It is the drill-down from Field Efficiency; when a number there looks odd, this is how you find out why.
Tell crews this exists. A replay shows one named person's location trail for one day, built from what UtilityScout reports under your organization's location policy. It is a normal capability for this kind of work, and it lands far better said out loud than discovered.
Fact | Detail |
Who can watch whose day | Org Admins and Workforce Managers: anyone. Everyone else: only their own |
How far back | Ninety days. Older days cannot be replayed, and Cloneable says so |
Location trail | Collected since Jul 13, 2026. A day before that replays its captures with no route between them. Cloneable also says so when a device did not report location that day |
Open one
Start from Field Efficiency and pick a day. Each day offers to replay itself.

Read it
The header shows how many objects were captured and their mix, how long the day ran, how much was travel, and, with a trail, how far was covered.
Times on individual objects are floors, not measurements; the app records about twenty seconds when it saves everything at once. See Field Efficiency, and what each number means.
Jump from a capture straight into its inspection view; see Work in the pole inspection view.
A capture in the feed, with its links into the map and the inspection view.
When there is nothing to show
Message | Usually means | Also can mean |
No activity found for that person on that day | They did not capture. Check the date; a day starts at the first capture | Your role does not include replaying someone else's day. Non-admins get this same message |
Something could not load | Part of the picture is missing, most often the trail or photos | The captures are still real; the route may be incomplete |
Replay is for understanding, not auditing. It shows where the app reported location, not where somebody was or what they did. Gaps in coverage are normal. "Why did this take so long" it answers well. "Was this person working" it will mislead you on.
