Notifications

To stay up to date with your projects, you can receive push notifications through the mobile app. When your iOS or Android device prompts you, you must allow push notifications for awork.

Note: Notification settings can only be edited in the web version. There you decide which notifications you want to receive on your smartphone.

Notification Overview

In the fourth tab of the bottom navigation bar, you'll find the notification overview. Notifications are displayed chronologically there. Similar messages are grouped together.

To mark notifications as read, swipe the row left and tap the checkbox button. If you swipe far enough, the checkbox turns green, the entry is automatically marked as read, and disappears from the overview.

If you've enabled notifications to disappear when navigating in your profile settings, simply tapping the notification marks it as read.

In-App Notifications

You'll find search in the far right of the bottom navigation bar. You can search for tasks and projects.

awork suggests relevant results for you even without a search term.

Tap on a search result to open the respective project or task.


FAQ

Where can I download the awork mobile app?

You can download the app from the App Store or the Google Play Store.

Is there a dedicated awork iPad app?

No. While you can install the iOS mobile version on iPads, it has significantly fewer features than the browser version. Since the browser version works perfectly on iPad, we recommend using awork in the browser on iPad.

Tip: iPad OS allows you to create app icons from websites on the home screen. This way, you can open awork in the browser and place it directly as an icon.

Which areas does the mobile app cover?

The app includes tasks, projects, time tracking, notifications, and search. It's designed as a complement to the web app and focuses on your own tasks, time tracking, and receiving and viewing notifications.

Can I change notification settings in the app?

No. Notification settings can only be edited in the web version.

Can I edit billed time in the mobile app?

The same restrictions apply as in the web version. Billed time, for example, can no longer be edited.
