The week at a glance
The actions to handle, the working week, alerts, notifications, and the number of interventions waiting for client approval.
Product The pylotik mobile app
The pylotik mobile app is available. It does not replicate the web: it carries the short, frequent gestures, the ones you put off when it means opening a computer. Enter your time for the week, handle an action, send your Friday report, request leave, have the client approve an intervention on site. Steering stays on the web, on the same data.
Uses
What you do in it, tab by tab.
Everyone sees only the tabs their role opens up.
Time, by the week
The week is entered starting from the workload plan, which you copy and then correct. Once finalized, it goes to the manager for approval.
The Friday report
What moved forward, what got stuck, and alerts whose author chooses the recipient. The draft stays private until it is sent.
Actions, through their cycle
Create an action, take it on, deliver it, or accept one you requested. The cycle is the same as on the web.
Declare, then have it approved
The technician declares the completed intervention, names the approver on the client side, and can hand over the phone: the client signs on screen to accept the intervention, or refuses it with a reason.
Review and requests
The review of the team's reports, and the requests to handle: leave to approve, interventions that require freeing up workload already planned.
Everyone's leave is also there, to request or cancel, along with personal data. The details of intervention management and team steering are on their own pages.
Access
A web app, with no app store.
Opened in the browser, placed on the home screen
The mobile app opens in the phone's browser, at m.pylotik.com, with the same credentials as the web. Added to the home screen, it opens like an app, full screen. There is nothing to download from the App Store or Google Play, and nothing to update: the version is always the latest.
For whom
All team members have access, each with the tabs of their role: the technician sees their interventions, the manager their review and requests. The invited client finds a space of their own, limited to the interventions to approve and their actions. Their access stays free.
It requires a connection: there is no offline mode. Each field is saved as soon as you leave it, and only sending is an explicit act. The data is the same as on the web, hosted in the same place, in France: the details of hosting and security.
Why a companion
Data kept up to date is data entered where you are.
Steering often fails for a prosaic reason: keeping the tool up to date costs too much. Time entered on Friday from the phone, an action delivered between two meetings, an intervention approved by the client before leaving their site: that is what makes the week accurate, and what lets operational commitment management rest on facts rather than on memories.
Limits
What stays on the web.
Project pages, the Planning, committees and their minutes, finance, the HR module and administration stay on the web, on a computer or a tablet. It is a choice: these screens need room, and a committee is not held on a phone screen. Project managers' leave decisions are also made on the web.
The mobile app is not a roaming field tool either: no geolocation, no attached photo, no offline form.
Frequently asked questions
What we are asked about the mobile app.
Is the mobile app available?
Yes. It opens at m.pylotik.com, from the phone's browser, and can be added to the home screen.
Do I need to download it from the App Store or Google Play?
No. It is a web app: it does not go through any app store and has no update to install.
Does it work without a network?
No. It requires a connection, like the web. Each field is saved as soon as you leave it.
Can my client use it?
Yes, for what concerns them: their interventions to approve and their actions. Their access is free.
Does it cost anything extra?
No. It is included in each user's seat, on every tier. Only intervention management, when used, is a module. See the pricing.
