*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.
