Answers to the questions people ask most, on the web and in the Shelter Sense phone app. If yours is not here, email mark@wilkins.software.
Signing in
Use the email address your organization invited. The web app and the phone app use the same account and password.
Forgot your password? Reset it here; the link arrives by email.
If you are asked to change your password, do it on the web, then return to the phone app and tap “I have changed it”.
The phone app
The phone app is not in the App Store or Google Play yet. The release notes will say when you can install it.
The app covers floor work: List Mode sign-outs and sign-ins, evaluations, assessments, training plans, comments and animal records. Reports, billing, users and setup stay on the web.
You can keep working without a connection. Changes are saved on the phone and sent when you are back online. Anything that could not be saved is listed under Menu → Sync issues, with what to do about it.
Uploading or opening a training-plan PDF needs a connection.
People and permissions
Organization administrators invite staff and volunteers from User Management in the web app and choose each person's role.
If a button or page is missing for you, your role does not allow it. Ask an administrator in your organization.
Billing and subscriptions
Administrators manage the subscription from Billing in the web app. The phone app never takes payment.
If the subscription lapses, the app shows a Subscription required screen until an administrator renews it.
Reporting a problem
In the web app, use Feedback in the sidebar: it sends the page you were on and the app version with your report. In the phone app, use Send feedback on the Me screen. You can also email mark@wilkins.software; say what you did, what you expected and what happened.
Other questions, including sales and privacy requests, are on the contact page.
