Morning brief and evening wrapEvery morning. You know where you stand.

Tools Down speaks up before you think to ask. First thing on a working day, what’s on and what’s overdue. At the end of it, what you worked on and haven’t invoiced, and which quotes are still waiting.

What a chat shows when you ask what’s on. A fictional day.

01First thing

Before the kettle’s boiled, you know the day.

At 07:30 on a working day, a notification with your first job and anything overdue. Tap it and the Diary opens on today. On a day with nothing to tell you, it stays quiet.

Tools Down07:30

Mrs Patel at 08:00.

£600 overdue on 1 invoice.

Written from your Diary and your invoices, so it’s never a guess.

02Gone quiet

The quote you forgot gets a nudge.

A quote with no answer for a week gets a line in your chat, and it’s in the evening wrap. Tap Follow up and the message opens on your phone, written, with the quote’s link. You press send.

03The evening wrap

At the end of the day, nothing left hanging.

At 18:00 on a working day: jobs worked today and not invoiced, visits made and not quoted, quotes still waiting on an answer, and what tomorrow starts with. Tap it and the Diary opens on tomorrow.

Tools Down18:00

1 job worked today and not invoiced.

Sarah Hughes hasn’t answered Q-0143 in 8 days. Tomorrow: 08:00 Taylor.

The wrap, as it lands. A fictional day.

04Rain and clashes

Rain on tomorrow’s job? You’ll know tonight.

If the Met Office has rain on one of tomorrow’s outdoor jobs, you hear that evening, with the first dry day. Tap Move to Thursday and the job moves, same hours, with Undo.

If two jobs overlap, the morning brief or the evening wrap says which: “Mrs Patel and Lee overlap at 8.30am.”

Tools Down18:00

The Met Office has heavy rain from 11am tomorrow at Mrs Patel’s.

Thursday looks dry, so just say if you want it moved. Tomorrow: 09:00 Mrs Patel.

You: Move to Thursday

Tools Down: Moved Mrs Patel to Thursday, 9am.

The wrap with the rain first, then one tap. A fictional day.

05Reminders and tips

What you asked for, when you asked for it.

Reminders you set come through at the time you said, even in quiet hours: “Remind me Friday at 2 to chase the Willow Lane invoice.” They show in the Diary, and when you ask what’s on.

And once a day at most, a new chat shows a tip on something it can do that you haven’t tried, like “You can book a job by saying ‘Patel Tuesday morning’.” Tap it and the words are in the box, ready to change.
