    Smart Phone/Smart Pad suggestion and is there an Ap?

    Hello

    My company is hoping to use Method out in the field and have the crew lead automatically enter information, ie. employees time, materials used etc. etc.  Do you recommend a tablet or pad for this and also do we have to always access the full website or is there a specific ap for mobile devices?

    Deb,

    Using Method's full site doesn't always work on tablet devices, since they don't all have great support for frames. Our mobile site however does work on tablet devices https://www.methodintegration.com/Method/mobile.aspx

    Hi Deb

    Using a screen that is optimized for a mobile device, an iPad works quite well.  However,  I haven't tested many other tablet devices.

    Just for kicks and giggles, I put this web address into my iphone to see what it looks like.  I don't see anywhere how you enter employees time for a specific job.  Is there?  I want to use this to replace the current paperwork that the crews use while out in the field and input everything directly into Method instead while on the jobsite, this doesn't seem that friendly?

    Answer

    Deb - use the "Work Orders" tab link - what you are describing already exists.  And make sure you log in using the *mobile* log in, not the non-mobile login.
