Setting Up Your Starting Location
Configure where you start your working day for accurate commute times, route optimisation, and ETA calculations.
Why you need a starting location
Your starting location is used to calculate commute time to your first job, optimise routes more accurately, and show realistic ETAs throughout your day. Without it, the app can't calculate travel times properly.
Open working hours settings
In the Planner, tap the day summary header at the top of your job list. This opens the working hours sheet where you can configure your starting location.
Option 1: Use your current GPS location
Tap 'Use Current Location' to grab your device's GPS coordinates. The app will show the nearby address for verification. Give it a name like 'Home' or 'Depot'.
Option 2: Search for an address
Tap 'Search Address' to type in an address manually. Select from the suggestions, then give the location a name. This option requires an internet connection.
Save your location
Once saved, you'll see your starting location displayed with the name and address. The commute time to your first job now appears at the top of your schedule.
Change your location anytime
Tap your saved location card to change it. Useful if you're staying somewhere different for a few days or have multiple depots.
