Crews Out for Jobber

Time off, asked on a phone and approved in one tap.

Your crew taps the day. You approve from WhatsApp. It goes on the Jobber schedule.

How it works

Nothing to install, and the approver never signs in. Every message goes from your own phone.

Read the transcript

Need a day off? A long weekend at the lake, or a Monday with a box of tissues. Until now, it lived in texts, sticky notes, and someone's memory. Then someone gets booked on a job while they're off. Meet Crews Out. Time off for Jobber crews.

Tap the day, pick the type, see what you'd have left, and tap Ask. It goes straight to your manager on WhatsApp, with an approve link filled in. Your manager taps the link and approves. No sign-in. The day is blocked on your Jobber schedule, so nobody books you.

How much vacation is left? It's right on your page, with every day added and taken. One tap tells you. One more tells the crew group. And the office sees who's off for the next two weeks. Going forward, all time off goes through Crews Out. No more texts. No more sticky notes. Get started at crewsout.com.

FAQ

Plain answers.

Does my crew need an app?

No. It opens in their phone's browser from your invite. They sign in once, and can add it to their home screen.

Does it send messages for me?

No. Messages open in your own WhatsApp, or iMessage if you'd rather, with the words filled in. You press send. No business number, no bot.

Who approves, and do they sign in?

Each person's manager, set on Crew; Jobber's owner and admins to start. No sign-in: their link works only for them, and only once.

How do balances work?

Each type is given all at once on January 1 or earned monthly, with more after some years and carryover if you want it, in days or hours. Everyone sees what was added and taken. Bring balances over from payroll, and download a pay period to key back in.

Does it work without Jobber?

Yes. Add people by hand. Their time off just doesn't go on a Jobber schedule.
