Creating tasks in the mobile app
You can easily create new tasks directly in the mobile app by tapping the menu button in the Projects or My Tasks section and selecting Create new task 1.
A mobile version allows you to 2:
- Add assignee
- Specify start and end dates
- Set status
- Determine priority
- Log time
- Set estimation
- Add description
- Attach files
- Add comments (once you create and save the task)
You can also delete a task 3 in a mobile app. To do that, tap on the task and swipe left.
Take into consideration the following aspects while creating a task in a mobile app:
- Start and end dates, status, and priority are auto-filled with default values when you create a task.
- Task name and Path fields are mandatory. You won’t be able to save a new task without filling them.
Tracking time spent on tasks
With the GanttPRO mobile app, you can easily track the exact time spent on tasks, whether you're in the field, on your way to the office, or at any other work location.
You can log your working time manually or use a timer.
1. For manual time logging, tap on the corresponding task 1 in the Projects or My Tasks section. Proceed to the task settings, choose Time log 2, specify the date and hours spent on the task 3 and click on Save.
2. To set a timer, use one of the two available methods:
- Remaining in the Projects or My tasks section, as shown above, tap on a specific task to open the task settings. Select Time log, switch to the Timer tab, and start the timer.
- Alternatively, click the menu button at the bottom right in the Projects 1 or My tasks section and select Set timer 2. In this case, you have to select the task 3 for which you want to log time. By default, it is set to the last task you logged time for.
When the timer is activated, you'll find the counter displayed in the top-right corner of the app screen. To pause or stop the timer, simply tap on this counter 1. To save the time entry, click on the stop sign 2.
Whether you log time manually or via the timer, you can then:
- Edit the date of the time entry
- Edit the logged time
- Delete the logged time
- Add, edit, or remove comments associated with the time entry.
To perform these actions, tap and hold the corresponding time entry 3. You will see two options: 'Edit' and 'Delete'.
Please note that the timer can only be set for one task at a time.
