About this app

ServiceM8 Lite is a simple, fast & easy-to-use Android app specifically designed for field staff, subcontractors & temporary workers who just need the basics, and don’t have a management or billing role in the business. ServiceM8 Lite for Android gives these workers the essentials to know when & where to be, view key job details, receive updates, and complete core job tasks on site.

ServiceM8 Lite is not designed for use by the business owner, or field staff with a management and/or billing role. This app does not have the same feature set or capabilities as the ServiceM8 iPhone/iPad app.

If you’re a subcontractor who subcontracts to a business using ServiceM8 — with ServiceM8 Lite, you can receive work requests, use digital job cards to get all job & client details, see your schedule in real time, complete checklists of job requirements, track time on site, review job history, and save job notes & photos.

Ratings and reviews

I've been shopping around for an app that I can use for my small service based business, and servicem8 exactly fits the bill. Unfortunately, the app is unfinished. Some things simply don't work (reordering the icons in the job card view), UI elements are placed incorrectly or overlap with each other, updating from the server should be done by pulling down from the top, but instead you have to switch to a different tab and return to the schedule tab for it to update. Many other disappointments.

The update is great. Already I prefer it over ios although taking payments still unavailable. Its so much quicker. I like how it opens a new window when doing reports. Like alt tab on a desktop you're able to jump back into the app and add photos without having to close the report. Being able to use an spen to sign reports is a game changer. Keep the updates coming. I have faith it'll be successful.

This is absolutely useless on Android. 0 stars is what I give it. Can't scan QR codes for assests to do my jobs so have to have a dedicated Apple phone just to do my job. ios version is able to do 💯 more. Can't find client assests via clients information, can't do anything but see job and check in. So Apple orientated it's disgusting. What a waste of data. If I was my boss I would just scrap this whole product as it is suitable for 1 platform and need to buy a phone for each employee to do jobs
