The home screen

What the Mobile app shows when it opens, and where each button on it takes you.

Overview

The home screen is the first thing you see after signing in. It shows the hours you have logged, your next job, and a column of buttons that open the screens you use most. Tap Home in the menu to come back to it from anywhere.

The Mobile home screen, with the greeting card, the next job and the column of blue buttons

The screen reads from top to bottom in this order.

Homepage note

When the office has written a homepage note, it sits in a card under the Smartworks logo. Use it for team reminders and announcements. Every team member sees the same note, and the card is not shown when the note is empty.

NeedsHomepage Note switched on (Settings › Feature › Mobile)

Greeting card

The card shows your company name, today’s date and Hi with your first name. Under that are two counts:

  • hours logged today - the time on your timesheet for today.
  • hours logged this week - the time on your timesheet for the current week.

Tap the card to open your timesheets.

NEXT JOB

When you have a booking that starts later than now, a blue NEXT JOB panel shows it. The top right says how far away it is. The card inside shows:

  • the customer’s name and the job’s status
  • the date of the booking
  • TIME: the booking’s start and end times
  • ADDRESS: the job address, or - not specified -

Tap the card to open My Jobs. Tap the orange map pin to open the address in your maps app.

Time on job

While you have work started on a job, an orange Time on job banner counts the hours and minutes, with stop work at its right. It shows on the job’s screens. See Start and stop work.
