Mobile apps for Skilled trades

Trades businesses lose valuable working time every day through manual appointment arrangements, handwritten measurements and invoices that are only created in the office in the evening. A tailor-made mobile app gives fitters and master craftspeople all relevant job information directly on their smartphone – and automates customer communication, quote creation and documentation straight from the building site. That leaves more time for the actual craft.

Use cases

What Mobile apps does for Skilled trades.

(01)

Native iOS & Android

Whether the master uses an iPhone or the journeyman an Android device – the app runs reliably on both platforms and responds quickly and stably even under difficult conditions such as poor network coverage or cold.

(02)

AI features in the app

The AI creates finished quote drafts from voice notes on the building site, recognises material quantities from photos and suggests suitable service items for the invoice – without the tradesperson having to type.

(03)

Backend & API architecture

Job data, customer base and appointment calendar come together in one central system and can be connected seamlessly with existing trades software solutions such as DATEV, lexoffice or sector-specific ERP systems.

(04)

Push notifications & engagement

Customers automatically receive reminders of upcoming appointments and status updates on the ongoing job – this reduces follow-up questions and noticeably relieves the office.

(05)

App store optimisation

If the app is also intended for end customers to request jobs or book appointments, targeted app store optimisation makes sure it is found by the right users in the region.

(06)

Analytics & crash reporting

Technical errors are detected before they block everyday work on the building site – and usage data shows which app functions are actually used and where there is still room for optimisation.
