Finding your way around

Calendar views

Use the buttons at the top right of the calendar to change the view:

Day: A single day in detail. Phones open in this view.
Board: A column for each of the next several days, with a card for each event. Useful for planning the days ahead.
Week: One calendar week (Sunday to Saturday, or Monday to Sunday) with times down the side. Use the arrows to move a week at a time. Select a day's heading to open that day.
Month: The whole month at a glance.
Agenda: A simple day-by-day list.

Moving around

The ‹ and › arrows move back and forward. Today returns to the current date.
Select the date beside the arrows to jump: pick a month of any year, or type a date under Go to date.
The side panel on the left has a small month calendar (select any day to go to it; the days on screen are shaded) and the event types. Select a type to hide or show it; Show all brings every type back. Hidden types stay hidden on that device until you show them again. The panel button beside the arrows folds the panel away for more room. On a phone the event types run along the top of the calendar instead.
On a phone: swipe sideways to move to the next or previous day, week or month. The week shows about three days at a time with today first; swipe through the rest of the week, and keep swiping past its first or last day to change weeks. In Month, tap any day to open it. The phone's Back button returns to the week or month you came from. The round + button in the bottom corner adds an event.
Search (the box at the top, or the magnifying glass on a phone) finds events by title, WO# or WO Title, name, company, link or notes. Click into the box to see two extra choices above the results: When (any time, upcoming, past, or between two dates) and Look in (titles only, or titles plus company, link and notes). Your choices are remembered on that device, and a small dot on the magnifying glass shows while they are not the standard ones. Select a result to go to it.
The icons at the top right open the Dashboard, Settings (Owners and Admins) and this Help.
The moon (or the sun, in dark mode) switches between light and dark. It becomes your own choice, on every device you sign in on. My account → Light or dark can also set it back to match your device. It covers the calendar, Settings, My account and this guide; the dashboard always stays dark.
Notification sounds: while the calendar or dashboard is open, a short sound plays when someone else adds an event (and on the dashboard, when a weather alert appears). Choose your sounds, the volume, or no sound under My account → Notification sounds. Browsers only play sound once you have clicked or tapped the page.

Opening an event

Select any event to open it. If your level allows editing, it opens ready to change; otherwise you see the details. The bottom of the window shows who added the event and who last changed it.

Times and time zones

Times are shown exactly as entered: an event at 9:00 AM shows as 9:00 AM wherever you are. "Today" follows the team's time zone, which an Admin sets. If your device's clock is noticeably wrong, a small warning appears at the top of the screen.

Your menu

The round letter at the top right opens your menu: Dashboard, My account, Settings (Owners and Admins only), Help (this guide) and Sign out.
