the mobile app is stupid if you have a job booked in on the 1st on planner but do it on the 17 say! it leaves the job still located on the first of the month along with the date it was cleaned 17th.

So when you look back and jobs that you are behind with it gets very confusing when you have a lot behind you duno what you have or havent done sometimes

Chris if you get this, i +1 with these guys the mobile app is so bad and pointless!

caused me so many problems and you have to tap so many options its simply not worth using.

it should be one click and next job! a little bit like the pop up window on the planner!

something like this
9 tab options on the screen, in a friendly interface

Mrs muftuf, 8 dirtywindow lane, LL15 5TU
Round name

4 weekly
<nov
>jan

1 Done & paid
2 Done & no payment
3 Done fronts only & paid
4 Done fronts only & no payment
5 Done but edit amount charged/payed
6 To do
7 Skip
8 Make note
9 Edit

obviously with options 3 and 4 you pre-set the amount  discount in % for fronts only in setting before hand, e.g. 50% for me, if the job is less work on the fronts you can use option 5 to a new screen.

just my opinion that would work for me!

If anyone has a windows phone you can go to full.aworka.com rather than using the mobile app. I have an HTC Titan, which I bought especially for this purpose as it has a large screen size, it might be a bit fiddly on a smaller phone.

Sorry to hear you are having problems with the mobile aworka app!

I think one of the mistakes I made with the current version, was trying to make it look like an iPhone native app, at the expense of speed and ease of use  :(

I'm currently working hard on the next version, which will...

- Speed up load times
- Improve responsiveness, especially on less powerful devices
- Reduce the number of taps required, especially for the most common tasks
- Fix scheduling quirks
- Add missing features, e.g. adding new jobs and expenses
- Extend planner range beyond three days, by enabling days to be loaded on demand

I still have a fair amount of work to do, but I'm aiming to update the app within the first couple of months of next year...

Chris make it simple so it's strictly for field use. Too much and it won't be fast as it needs to be.
