What the app is for#

The phone app is for keeping an eye on things rather than building them. Enquiries arrive with a notification and can be answered or triaged in seconds; the home screen shows how the websites are doing; publishing, blog posts and domain checks are a tap away.

The app is on its way to the App Store and Google Play, and the app page on this site carries the links as soon as the stores approve it. When it arrives, sign in with the same account as the web: there is no second set of details.

Step 1 of 2

Enquiries, minutes after they arrive

A notification, a glance, a stage change. The gap between a message arriving and being acknowledged shrinks.

Reduced motion is on, so the walkthrough waits for you. Use the arrows or pick a step.

Good to know: Everything the app can do, the web can do too. The app is a shorter path to the things people need away from a desk.

The first look#

The home screen greets you with the numbers that matter: visitors, views and enquiries over the last week, with 30 and 90 day views a tap away, then the things waiting for you. An enquiry count on the app icon means the same as the badge on the website card on the web.

A workspace switcher and a notification setting live under Profile, so a person with several workspaces can point the app at the one they care about on the day.

Common questions

Is the app available now?

It is built and on its way through the stores. The app page here carries download links as soon as it is approved.

Can I edit page layouts on the phone?

No, and that is deliberate. The editor needs a screen worth editing on; the app sends you to the nearest one for layout work.
