> A field service app that works without signal: jobs, checklists, photos, readings and signatures sync when the network returns.

# A technician app that works where the signal does not

Plant rooms, estates and borehole sites often have poor or no mobile data. The technician app is built offline first: the day's jobs are on the phone, the whole visit can be done without a connection, and everything syncs by itself when the phone is back online.

**Availability:** Android and iPhone apps are built and being prepared for store release; the phone web app works today.

The problem

## Paper, photos in a chat and double entry

Technicians write on paper, send photos on WhatsApp and the office types it all in again later. A lost network means a lost visit record.

### The whole job offline

See the job, follow the checklist, take photos, record readings, add parts used and collect the customer's signature without a connection.

### Safe sync

Each change is sent once and only once. If the office changed the job in the meantime, the app says so in plain words instead of overwriting anything.

### Readings that mean something

Record pressure, conductivity, TDS, pH and other readings. They are judged against your own bands for that kind of system.

### Parts and stock

Record the filters and parts used. They come off the technician's van stock and can go on the invoice.

### Arrival check

When a technician starts work the app checks they are at the site. It never blocks the work, it only lets the office know when something looks off.

### Notifications

Reminders for today's visits and changes to assigned jobs arrive as push notifications on Android.

Illustration: each change is stored on the phone, sent once when the network returns, and checked against the job as it is now.

Questions

## About technician phone apps

**### Is there an Android app and an iPhone app?**

Both have been built, with the same offline design. They are being prepared for release in the app stores. A phone-friendly web version for technicians works in any modern browser today. Ask us about the current status.

**### What happens if two people change the same job?**

The app compares the change with the job as it is now. If it can no longer be applied, the app tells the technician why and nothing newer is overwritten.

**### Can the technician turn off location sharing?**

No. Location is shared with the office while the technician is working a job, and the company can also choose working hours for it. Technicians are told clearly when it is on.
