Setting to optimize grid display for Mobile Phone

Currently the new grid style is so close to working well on a phone. Is there anyway to add a setting to adjust resolution (grid) just enough to get name,total hours,a phase, and time allocation? Of course just like the iPad need to be able to scroll through multiple phase and employees. This would allow our Superintendents to use there phones in the Field to enter time on the fly instead of writing notes and then entering later on an iPad. Grid style is awesome. This allows for so much more flexibility in entering time against multiple phases and employees in real time. The mobile app is really shaping up! Thank you!

    Thanks for responding Mark, it is so close to working for a bigger phone (iPhone XR) in photos. If columns were adjustable or the earn code pop up was slightly tweaked this would work well. Or freeze just the employees column and not the totals with it. I remember a GC at a conference tell me they were hesitant to use keystyle because of so many phases and trying to capture time on the go. I am sure you can see my thought process. One of the Forman’s crew finishes a task that involved 3 employed for 3 hours on that phase. Grab my phone out of my pocket and enter that right then. Those three employees go to the next tasks and different phase. With the ability to select multiple employees to add to a phase and having multiple phases available this is terrific. It’s just giving them the ability to use the one device they have on them all the time. Just my thoughts. Thanks again for taking the time to respond to my idea :).

    Hi Donavon,

    I'm glad you like the new tablet grid we've been working on it for a while :)

    This design won't really work on a mobile device, but your users can still use the regular mobile app time entry process when on a device with a smaller screen.
