End-of-day push → one-tap log
A day on the job
What this looks like in your hand.
Four moments. None of them are 'open the app and pull up a menu.'
06:45
Optional opening reading
If your fleet uses start-of-shift, one push asks for the unit you're running today.
13:02
Spot a problem
Tap Flag. Yellow for routine, red for urgent. Photo or voice note attaches.
17:00
End-of-day push
One ping. Find the unit, type the meter, and save. Use a dashboard photo if OCR is helpful.
Drive home
Sync happens in your pocket
When signal returns, every log + photo + flag uploads in the background. Never your problem.
Photo of the dash
When typing in gloves is a pain — just photograph it.
Snap the dashboard or hour meter, let OCR suggest a number, confirm or edit it, and save. Both the photo and the entered value are stored for later review.
- →Big confirm/edit buttons. Easy with gloves on.
- →Last reading is suggested — see if your photo matches.
- →Hour photo + reading queue offline and sync when signal returns.
- →Nobody has to remember to copy a number into a spreadsheet.

Reminders, not nagware
One ping at end of day. That's the deal.
If you've already logged, you don't get pinged. If a unit is still missing a reading, a gentle nudge a couple hours later. We don't escalate.
- →Default: 5 PM end-of-day push, configurable per fleet.
- →Optional start-of-shift if your operation runs that way.
- →Per-driver mute window for vacation / weekends / off days.
- →No '3rd reminder' guilt-trip messages. Ever.
Reminder copy (samples)
Defaults: end-of-day at 5 PM or your shift end; optional start-of-shift prompt. Copy stays short — operators decide in a glance.

Offline hour logging
Pits, yards, dead zones — the meter log still lands.
Hour readings save on the device when you have no signal. When you pick up a bar — driving back, walking past office wifi — queued logs sync in the background. Flagging and repair notes still need connectivity today.
- →Offline hour logs queue on device and sync when signal returns.
- →Nothing is lost if signal drops mid-hour-save.
- →Sync indicator on hour entries — you know the reading landed.
- →No GPS, no telematics polling, no battery drain.

Permissions
What you (a driver) can do, and what you can't.
On purpose. The app keeps things simple and honest — drivers and operators have the tools they need without exposure to fleet-wide settings.
You can
- ✓Log hours — typed or photo — on assets you operate
- ✓Flag any asset you're near (yellow or red)
- ✓Scan a tool tag (QR / NFC) to report damage or request a replacement
- ✓View your own recent logs
- ✓Pin your six regular units for fast access
- ✓See basic asset status (current hours, next service)
You can't
- —See other drivers' logs
- —Edit fleet structure (add / remove assets)
- —Clear flags or close out repairs (mechanic role)
- —Change billing or org settings
Cleaner separation = fewer accidental edits, less anxiety about breaking something.
FAQ
Driver questions
Will this nag me?
One push at end of day. If you've already logged, you don't get pinged again. If you missed a unit, a gentle nudge a couple hours later. That's it.
Does it track my location?
No continuous tracking — ever. The only time location is captured is the exact moment you tap save on a log or flag, and only if you choose to attach it. The photo of the meter and where the asset is parked help mechanics find equipment when something needs fixing. Your fleet can also turn it off entirely. We never log your route, your speed, or anything between logs.
What if I'm in a dead zone?
Hour logs save into a device queue when the browser is offline, then upload when you're back in signal. Snap the photo too — it rides with the queued log. Some actions still need connectivity; the app surfaces that if you hit them.
Why a photo of the dash?
A photo can make capture easier in gloves and lets OCR suggest a reading. The operator still confirms or edits the number, and the stored photo gives managers evidence for later review.
