*Note: 📱 Mobile vs 🖥️ Desktop Screens

  • Use Mobile Screens when showing field tasks (time tracking, punch lists, messaging, approvals, uploads). Contractors are most likely to follow along on their phone.

  • Use Desktop Screens when showing office-side tasks (project setup, team management, finance, permissions, cost codes). These are clearer on larger screens.

  • Hybrid Features (e.g., Bid Packages, Documents):

    ○ Show desktop in Concept / Overview or Reference articles for clarity.

    ○ Show mobile in Workflow / Tutorial or Troubleshooting articles for step-by-step guidance.

  • If the workflows differ between mobile and desktop, add a short “Mobile vs Desktop Differences” note at the end of the article.
