Sized for sunlight and gloves

Big surfaces, high contrast, generous tap targets. Readable at noon in July.

Captures fully offline

Backyards eat signal. Visits queue locally and sync the moment the truck is back on the street.

Progressive web app — no app store, no updates, no friction onboarding a new tech.

Most field-service apps were designed in air-conditioned offices by people who tested them on a phone held at eye level under a desk lamp. Take one of those apps into a backyard on a 95-degree afternoon and the experience falls apart: the screen is unreadable, the tap targets are too small for work gloves, and the whole thing freezes the moment the phone drops to one bar.

SplashIQ's field app is the opposite. Every screen has been pressure-tested in the actual conditions a pool technician works in: blinding sun, sweaty hands, fenced-in yards with no signal, fifteen visits to log between 7am and 4pm. The result is an app that disappears into the job instead of getting in the way.

Designed for sunlight and gloves

The field app uses high-contrast surfaces — dark text on bright backgrounds, no fashionable low-contrast greys — so the screen stays readable in direct sun. Tap targets are oversized for a reason: a technician with a wet, gloved finger can hit them on the first try. Forms are short and use the right keyboard for the right field, so capturing a chlorine reading is two taps and a number, not a dialog box festival.

Photo capture is a single tap from inside a visit. The image attaches to the right visit and the right equipment automatically — no fumbling with a camera roll, no risk of uploading a photo to the wrong customer. Before/after pairs are presented side by side in the homeowner portal without any extra work.

Offline-first, by design

The field app stores everything locally first. A technician can drive into a property with no signal, complete the entire visit — check the route stop, capture chemistry, snap photos, flag equipment, log notes, mark the visit complete — and never see a loading spinner. The moment the phone gets service back, every change syncs in the background. There's a clear indicator showing pending changes so a technician always knows where they stand.

This isn't a hopeful overlay on a network-dependent app. It's a service-worker-backed local queue that survives airplane mode, app restarts and even battery deaths. Nothing is lost, ever.

Installs from the browser, no app store

The field app is a progressive web app. A technician opens a link, taps 'add to home screen', and from that moment on it behaves exactly like a native app: an icon on the home screen, full-screen launch, offline support, push notifications. You don't wait two weeks for an app store review to ship a fix, and your technicians don't need to update anything — the app refreshes itself.

For your business, this means new technicians are productive in minutes instead of days. Onboard a new hire on Monday morning by texting them a link.

Fast on the phones technicians actually carry

The team running your routes isn't carrying a brand-new flagship phone. It's a four-year-old Android or a hand-me-down iPhone. SplashIQ's field app is engineered to run smoothly on these devices — lean bundles, minimal animations, no unnecessary network round-trips. Page transitions are instant. Visits load before the tech has even unlatched the gate.

What it changes for your business

Lose zero data to dead spots

Offline-first capture means a backyard with no signal is a non-event. The work syncs the moment the truck pulls back to the street.

Finish visits faster

Big buttons, smart keyboards and one-tap photos shave a minute off every stop. Across fifteen stops a day that's a quarter hour reclaimed.

Onboard new hires in an hour

No app store, no installs, no devices to configure. A link and a brief tour and a new tech runs their first route.

Defend disputed visits

Timestamped GPS-tagged photos and readings prove the visit happened, on time, and what was done.

Frequently asked questions

Does the field app work offline?+

Yes. Visits, chemistry readings, photos and equipment flags captured offline queue locally and sync automatically when the phone gets service. Technicians see a clear indicator of what's still pending.

Is it a native app or a website?+

It's a progressive web app — installable from the browser with no app store wait, and it works fully offline. Updates roll out instantly. You don't pay an app store tax and your technicians don't have to update anything.

Will it work on an older phone?+

Yes. The field app is designed to be lightweight enough to run smoothly on three- or four-year-old phones, including older Android devices that most field-service apps choke on.

Can I take photos straight into the visit?+

Yes. Before and after photos are a one-tap action and attach directly to the visit and the equipment, so they appear in the homeowner's portal automatically.

What about glare and big gloves?+

Every screen is built with high contrast, big tap targets and minimal text. Technicians can complete a visit wearing work gloves without zooming or squinting.
