Question 1

Hide money on the Today screen

Accepted Answer

The Today screen keeps one layout. You can hide every dollar on it with one switch. Open Settings, then Today, and turn off Show money on Today. The takings, what's owed and what each dog came to all disappear from the Today screen on this phone. Turn it back on to see them again. Where things are on the Today screen The strip above the main card says how many dogs are done and what's come in. The main card shows the booking you're on or heading to. Under it, a tray holds what's owed, equipment due and tomorrow. Tap it to open it. Under that, the rest of today's bookings are stacked. Tap Fan out to see the drive and spare time between them. Team members never see money on the Today screen, whatever this switch says. The switch is on the phone only. The Dashboard on a computer isn't changed by it.

Question 2

What happens at the end of the day

Accepted Answer

Once your bookings are past, Clippers Base asks you to confirm what actually happened and whether you got paid. If a booking was never started or finished, Clippers Base doesn't guess — it asks. Once the day is over, the Today screen shows a "Did these happen?" card listing anything untracked. Tap "All done" to mark everything on the list completed in one go. If one of them genuinely didn't happen, tap "Didn't happen" next to it and choose "Client cancelled" (no text goes out — they already know) or "No-show". Once that list is clear, "Did they pay you?" opens for the jobs you've marked done that aren't paid yet. Tap Cash, Card or PayID next to each booking, or "All paid cash" to clear the lot in one go. "Invoicing later" skips them — you can still take payment from the booking whenever you're ready. Once everything's sorted, the card reads "Day complete": what you received, a one-line note on how the day went, and buttons for "View tomorrow" and "Day report". Tap "Skip for now" and the card reads "Day complete", with a "2 to check" pill to bring the list back. Anything still untracked tomorrow shows in the tray under the main card with "All done" and "Review", for up to a week.

Question 3

What the Today screen shows you

Accepted Answer

It's the one screen for your whole day — who's next, what to do about them, and what still needs you. The Today screen opens on whoever's up next: their dog, the time, and a "Leave in" pill once we know the drive. We never guess a drive. If you're running behind, a band across the card says so, with "Let them know". Tap "Today brief" for the morning read-out: a headline, then "Worth a look" (plain facts, like who hasn't confirmed) and "The dogs" (your follow-ups and their history). "Start" shows from 25 minutes before the booking, and the card then times the job. "Checkout" wraps it up, or "Finish" once it's paid. "Voice note" is on every card. Swipe the card left for today's map and the next stop. Above the card, a strip says how many are done and what's come in; tap it for the list. The tray at the bottom of the card holds what's owed, gear due and tomorrow. Anything that needs you, like a booking never started, sits there with the answers. Later bookings stack below; "Fan out" shows the drive and spare time between them. The amber "Heads up" box is the note saved on the dog's profile. A line under it is something Clippers Base spotted before that job. The Dashboard on a computer is simpler: who's next, your week, what needs attention. The brief, Start and the tidy-up are on the phone.

Question 4

Talk a note in instead of typing it

Accepted Answer

Record a voice note while you're grooming and Clippers Base pulls out anything you need to act on. Tap the round mic button beside Checkout — on the job card on Today, or at the bottom of a booking — and talk. A note can run up to 5 minutes, then it saves itself. Tap the tick to save it, or the cross to throw it away. With more than one dog on the booking, tap the name in the bar to say who the note is for. Clippers Base transcribes it and pulls out anything worth following up: an upsell to mention next time, a callback to make, a reminder, or just a note worth keeping. The transcript sits on the booking, where you can play the audio back, edit the words or delete it. When a follow-up is waiting, a card on Today can say so. Tap Review to open Voice notes, then "Mark done" once you've dealt with it. "Reopen" brings it back. Recordings queue on your phone and upload once you're back online, so recording in a dead zone still works. The audio is archived after 30 days. The transcript, and anything pulled from it, stays for good.
