Display: 1366×768 minimum. The map view and crew dispatch screen benefit from a larger display (1920×1080 or wider).

  • iOS — 15 or newer (iPhone XR+, iPad 2018+)
  • iPadOS — 15 or newer

A ruggedized case is recommended for crew use but not required. The crew interface works on screens as small as 5".

Internet

  • Office: broadband, 10 Mbps or faster
  • Field: 4G LTE or better on crew tablets
  • Latency-tolerant: the app works on slow connections; uploads of photos may take longer

Fully offline operation is not supported. Crew tablets need a working connection to update jobs and capture photos in real time.

  • QuickBooks Online — required for billing. Any plan tier (Simple Start, Essentials, Plus, Advanced). QuickBooks Desktop is not supported.
  • Google account — optional; works for SSO. Gmail and Workspace both supported.

Hardware

  • No proprietary hardware
  • No special scanners or terminals
  • Any printer that prints PDFs works for office paperwork
  • Any modern phone camera works for crew photo capture

We don't lock you into specific vendor hardware. If it's a tablet or phone, it works.
