Sitting with their other cards, where they already look

And the same job as a card in their wallet, updating on the lock screen. Built; waiting on Apple’s signing certificate.

“Someone will be with you between eight and six.” Then the customer writes off a day, and rings at eleven, and again at two, and you take both calls with your hands full.

Parcels stopped working like that fifteen years ago. The trades never got the same thing — not because it is hard, but because it was built for warehouses and nobody built it for a van. This is that, for work at somebody’s house.

Four words and a reason

That is the whole vocabulary. A customer who has used it once reads it without reading it.

  • Booked inYour job is in the diary.
  • On my wayThey have set off and are heading to you.
  • On siteThey are with you and work is under way.
  • Job doneWork is finished and the site is tidy.
  • PausedWork is on hold — the note below says why.

How it goes

1 · Your phone

Book the job, send the link

One tap texts them their link. Then, as the day goes, you tap the stage: five buttons, one-handed, next to the van. That is all you ever do.

Your job card: Sarah Whitfield, On my way, with the five stage buttons and Navigate

2 · Their phone

The same page, changing as you tap

They open it once and leave it open. It changes on its own. Nobody rings to ask.

3 · When it goes wrong

Running late? Say so once

Pause it with a reason — “waiting on the cylinder” — and everyone waiting on you reads it. No excuses invented on your behalf, no time it then has to walk back.

What it will never do

  • It never invents a time.No countdown, no "with you in 20 minutes". You cannot promise traffic, so it will not promise it for you. "On my way" is a fact. "Set off at 07:42" is a record.
  • It never shows a time you have not agreed.A window is two people arranging something. They can say a time suits, or say what does. Only an agreed one is ever stated as settled.
  • It never puts their details on a link that gets forwarded.Tracking links get passed into family group chats. What they tell you — which door, whether there is a dog, whether anyone is in — stays with you and their own phone. It is not on the page.

Want it for your own jobs?

It is running for one plumbing firm while it is made properly. Leave your email and I will tell you when there is room.

Your email is used to tell you when there is a place, and for nothing else.
