ReleaseBook User Guide

Create projects, capture releases, add signatures and export PDF proof.

Create a project

Open ReleaseBook and create a project for the shoot. Use a clear project name, shoot date, location and optional notes so the release pack is easy to find later. The current build stores records locally and does not require a RGT Software Ltd account.

The Projects dashboard keeps shoot records grouped before releases are added.

Add a release

Open a project and choose New Release. Select the release type that fits the shoot, such as model, minor, property, or appearance. Enter the signer name first; additional details can be added before signing or export.

The Project detail screen keeps each shoot's release list, filters, and export controls in one place.

Review and edit wording

ReleaseBook includes editable release wording to help you start quickly. Review the wording before use, adjust it for the job, and seek professional advice if you need jurisdiction-specific legal wording.

Capture signer details

Add contact details, address or identifying notes, witness details, guardian details for minor releases, and optional shoot notes where they help explain the record. Required guidance appears only when a required value is missing.

Add optional reference photos

Use selected photos or camera capture where a reference photo helps identify the subject, property, or shoot context. Photos are optional and remain part of the local app record unless you export or share them.

Sign the release

Use the signature capture area for a drawn signature, or use typed sign-off where drawing is not practical or accessible. ReleaseBook marks the release as incomplete until the required signature and minor-release guardian details are present.

The Release detail screen groups wording, signer details, signatures, photos, and export readiness.

Export PDF proof

Use the export controls to create a local PDF release or project pack. The system share sheet lets you save, preview, print, copy, or send the generated PDF through destinations available on your device.

Use Settings and support links

Open Settings to review the local-first privacy posture, purchase model, user guide, support, privacy policy, and terms links.

Understand privacy

ReleaseBook is local-first in the current build. RGT Software Ltd does not operate a ReleaseBook cloud account service. If you share exported files, you choose the destination through Apple system share options.
