Mobile PWA Installation Navigation

Install and Navigate Crewvana Mobile

Install your company's Crewvana site as a web app for a full-screen Mobile experience and quick access from your Home Screen.

Install on iPhone or iPad

  1. Open your company's Crewvana address in Safari and sign in.
  2. Open Safari's page menu, then select Share.
  3. Select Add to Home Screen. If prompted, turn on Open as Web App.
  4. Select Add.
  5. Launch Crewvana from the new Home Screen icon.

Install on Android

  1. Open your company's Crewvana address in Chrome and sign in.
  2. Open Chrome's menu.
  3. Select Install app, or select Install and create shortcut and then Install.
  4. Follow the device prompts, then launch Crewvana from your Home Screen or app list.

Browser menu wording can vary by device and browser version. If an install choice is unavailable, keep using Crewvana in the browser and try Safari on iPhone or Chrome on Android.

On the first installed launch, Crewvana may reload once while it switches to the Mobile surface. That is expected.

Use the main navigation

The bottom bar contains the main destinations:

  • Dashboard — your starting overview, Settings, and Notifications
  • Schedule — scheduled and incomplete Jobs
  • Messages — customer Conversations and drafts
  • Contacts — the Contact directory, when your role can view Contacts
  • Map — the mobile map

Crewvana remembers the last page you used within Dashboard, Schedule, Messages, and Contacts during the current session. Opening a Contact from a Job or Message and then returning should restore the prior screen.

Use the visible back arrow on detail screens instead of relying on an operating-system edge gesture. Installed apps use simplified history for the main tabs, while detail pages keep meaningful locations for direct links and refreshes.

On Schedule, swipe left for the next day or right for the previous day. Vertical scrolling still works, and the date controls remain available if an edge swipe is captured by the device.

Notifications and direct links

Notifications can open the relevant Conversation or an active-call recovery page. Crewvana first tries to reuse an open app window. Turn notifications on from Dashboard > Settings only when you want alerts on that device.

Connection limits

Crewvana Mobile is a web app, so browser and operating-system rules still apply.

  • Recent Message lists and opened threads may be available from saved data while offline.
  • Search results, sending, changes, payments, and most Job actions require a connection.
  • Crewvana never queues an outbound Message and reports it as sent while offline.
  • Mobile browser audio and background work can be interrupted by the device.
  • Operating-system edge gestures cannot always be disabled.

If a page looks stale, reconnect and use its refresh action or pull-to-refresh gesture. If navigation does not recover, close and reopen the installed app, then sign in again if asked.
