Introduction
Welcome to the Worker Efficiency App! Whether you're a seasoned manager or a new team member, this guide will walk you through the essentials of our app, making sure you can easily access the features you need to boost your productivity. We understand that starting with a new app can feel a bit overwhelming, so we've created this helpful breakdown to get you up and running. Let's dive in!
Understanding the Basics: Your Home Screen and the Hamburger Menu
When you first open the Worker Efficiency app, you'll find yourself on the home screen, your central hub for all things related to your work day. You can clock in, clock out, take your lunch break, and also track time on specific tasks from this screen.
On the top left corner, you'll see a hamburger menu (the three horizontal lines). Think of this as your gateway to all the additional features of the app. Tapping the hamburger menu reveals your profile, company settings, and other important tools, which we'll explore shortly.
Essential Navigation: The Tabs at the Bottom
At the bottom of your screen, you'll find several crucial navigation tabs:
- Home: As mentioned, this is your central hub where you can manage your time (clocking in, out, lunches) and track time to your assigned tasks. For managers, this is where you can also see Team tasks for visibility into what your team is working on and assign new tasks to team members.
- Jobs: Tap here to view all upcoming and active jobs and explore all job related data. For managers and administrators, this is also where you will create new jobs.
- Scan: This feature is a real time-saver! The Scan tab lets you quickly access job tasks by scanning QR codes found on the job site. Scan and instantly start tracking your time to specific tasks.
- Library: Here's where you'll find all your training and learning materials, including any libraries provided by Worker Efficiency or created by your company. This is a fantastic way to keep everyone on the same page with company-specific training. You can even broadcast welcome videos to new hires!
Exploring the Menu: Unveiling All the Features
