Your spreadsheet turned into a phone app
Keep the job sheet you already use. Your team gets a simple app made from it, with today's jobs as big cards. When they tap On site or Done on their phone, the same row in your sheet changes too.
A made-up builder with a made-up job sheet. Nothing is saved. Nothing to sign up for.
The job sheet works for me. But the lads can't use it on their phones, so they ring me all day.
What's the address? Is it today or tomorrow? What's the key safe code? Every answer comes from you, often while you're up a ladder yourself.
We tried one of those job apps once. It charged every month for every person, we had to start again in their system, and everyone drifted back to the sheet.
Keep your spreadsheet. Give the team an app made from it. No monthly subscription.
How it works
Your job sheet stays as it is: same columns, same colours, same file.
Your team gets a simple app made from it, with today's jobs as big cards they can tap.
They tap On site, Done or Photos taken, and the same row in your sheet changes straight away.
