Mobile App

The StagePulse mobile app mirrors the web app so you can run your business from a property walkthrough, not just your desk. It signs in with the same credentials — there's no separate account, no pairing, no device limit.

Installation

iOS — TestFlight during beta, App Store at launch
Android — Google Play Store at launch

Download, open, and sign in with your StagePulse email and password (or Google / Apple if you signed up with those).

What Mobile Is Best For

Some things are just easier on phone:

On-site photo capture — take the before and after shots directly, no transfer step
Quick status updates — mark a project as Active, Completed, or update notes from the driveway
Calendar check — see what's next
Inventory deployment — check items out to a project while you're loading the van
Push notifications — get pinged the moment a listing goes pending or a broker replies

What's Mobile-Only (Or Mostly Mobile)

Camera photo capture — web can upload photos but can't trigger the camera directly
Inventory "AI add" — snap photos of an item and let AI pre-fill the name, category, and condition

What's Web-First

A few workflows are easier with a keyboard and a bigger screen:

Invoicing setup — connecting QuickBooks or Stripe for the first time
Contract template editing — the rich text editor works but is tight on mobile
Statistics deep-dives — the charts are legible on mobile, but filtering is faster on web
Team invites — can be done on mobile but most people do it on web

Push Notifications

The app receives push notifications for:

New inbound emails routed to a project
Listing status changes (pending, sold, etc.)
Calendar reminders (when you've configured them)
Contract signatures received

You can control what types you receive under Profile → Notifications in the app. You can also disable specific categories without turning off system-level notifications entirely.

Role-Aware UI

Different roles see different things:

Owner / Admin — the full app experience
Member — projects, calendar, contacts, photos; limited settings access
Mover — project list and schedule only; no financials, no invoices, no contracts

This is driven by the role set on your account — no separate app for movers.

Signing In and Out

Sign in with email/password or social (Google, Apple)
Biometric sign-in (Face ID / Touch ID / fingerprint) is supported after your first login
Sign out from Profile → Sign Out; on shared devices, sign out every time

Offline Behavior

The mobile app requires an internet connection to do most things. Actions taken offline will fail rather than queue for later sync. If you're often in spotty-signal areas (basement walkthroughs, rural properties), keep that in mind — Wi-Fi or a stable LTE signal is needed to upload photos or create projects.

What Mobile Doesn't Do Yet

No offline mode — no queueing writes while offline
No widgets — no iOS home screen widget or Android lock screen widget showing today's schedule yet
No Apple Watch / Wear OS apps — notifications reach the watch if paired, but no native watch app
No iPad-optimized layout — the iPhone layout is what you'll see, stretched

Getting Started — set up your account on web first
Project Photos — where mobile shines
Inventory — AI-assisted item add is mobile-first
Team Members & Roles — roles control what each person sees on mobile
