How to Install and Use the Android Mobile App

 

Note: Use of the mobile app and desktop app simultaneously for the same company account can cause synchronization issues and affect the reports. To avoid this, stop time tracking on one device before start tracking time on the other.

Required Step: Mobile App Access has to be allowed by an account Admin/Owner for the users to be able to use mobile applications.

Note: When you start tracking time, the app will also ask when it should automatically stop tracking. This is optional but useful, in case you forget to stop tracking. By default, this time interval is 2 hours.

    1. Switch between company accounts - This feature is available when a user is part of more than one company account. Click on your avatar on the right navigation bar and choose between the different company accounts.

    2. Check from the Sync status:  If any tracked time is pending for upload, check from the Sync status. This will help to see in case the tracked time from the mobile app is missing from the online reports. If there is pending time, keep the app open and connected to the internet to upload any unsynced time.
