How to download the BigChange Express App

  • Updated

BigChange Express is a new Open BETA progressive web app designed to replace the legacy JobWatch Express app.

The JobWatch Express app is no longer supported and will not receive any updates or enhancements and will be removed from the Play and App stores in June 2024. 

This new app provides a better user experience, meeting the latest technical and security standards, while offering the same functionalities for monitoring vehicles and jobs on the move.

What is Open BETA

Open Beta means that these features are still in the testing phase, and we've made them available to you for early use. While we believe they are functional and exciting, they might not be completely polished yet.

By using these features, you can help us make them even better! You might encounter some quirks or unexpected behaviour. Your input is incredibly valuable, and we welcome any feedback and suggestions you may have during this phase.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

What is BigChange Express?

BigChange Express is a responsive web app that allows users to access a mobile-first experience by visiting a URL and downloading the app. It provides:

  • A dashboard with insights into daily data.
  • Real-time tracking of vehicles and resources via a combined map and list view.
  • A jobs list to keep users updated on scheduled and completed jobs.

Purpose of the App

The main purpose of BigChange Express is to give business managers, fleet managers, and other employees access to tracking and job information while on the go.

Use Case Examples:

  • Business Owners: Monitor their business out of hours or on the move.
  • Fleet Managers: Track vehicle locations to mitigate the impact of breakdowns.
  • Engineering Managers: Monitor engineers' job progress without needing a laptop on site.
