How to get my phone ready to work without signal
How to get my phone ready to work without signal. While you still have signal (ideally on wifi) and are signed in:
The steps, written out

Tip
The app opens each tile's page and the pages linked from them (up to about 90) and keeps a copy on the phone. The app also refreshes a list of pages for your role (menu pages, recent customers, open jobs and work orders) by itself when you are online. Do this before going to a site without coverage, and again when you need fresh job data. Pages you have already opened are also kept.
