Aperçu

How it works This template helps project managers collect task updates and photo reports from field workers via Telegram and stores everything in a Google Sheet. It enables daily project reporting without paper or back-office overhead.

High-level flow:

Workers receive daily tasks via Telegram

They respond with photo reports

Bot auto-saves replies (photos + status) to a Google Sheet

The system tracks task completion, adds timestamps, and maintains report history
