5 reasons to migrate to the latest version of WolMobile

Around this time last year we released a brand new, shiny version of WolMobile. Most of our customers have migrated over to WolMobile, but if you haven’t made the switch yet, now’s the time!

How do I know if I’m using the new version? 

If every employee and service provider in your team is using the app with this icon, you’re all set. This is the latest and best version of WolMobile and you don’t need to do anything further –great news!

If you (or some of your employees or service providers) are still using our WolMobile Legacy app with this icon, you’ll need to ensure everyone is migrated by March 31, 2021.

Why should I make the switch? 

Reason 1 – we’re decommissioning WolMobile Legacy

We’ll cut to the chase. The number one reason for migrating to the new version of WolMobile now is to ensure a smooth transition on the cut-off date. We’ll be decommissioning WolMobile Legacy on March 31 2021.

Reason 2 – it’s far more user friendly

Aside from a cleaner interface and added functionality, WolMobile is much easier to use than Legacy. The home screen contains a message board with all the safety information your team needs, and the ability to sign in/out of a location or for remote work with ease.

Reason 3 – auto sign in/out is a game-changer

Our customers often tell us that auto sign in/out is our best release. WolMobile users don’t even need to open the app to sign in and out, as it’s all taken care of using geofencing technology. 

Setting up a geofence is surprisingly easy. Simply use our drag and drop tool to draw a circle around your facility, click save, and you’re done. Now your employees and service providers can help keep your records accurate without lifting a finger. Brilliant!

Reason 4 – take your on-site safety up a notch

There are a number of brilliant safety upgrades to WolMobile. Using the new app, you’ll be able to: 

• Send SOS alerts in an emergency, including your location information
• Receive push notifications with important safety updates for your location
• Acknowledge safety requirements when signing in to a site
• Send location updates to a colleague when working remotely or across large, hazardous sites
• Input your expected duration on-site, triggering a safety alert to your colleagues if you’re overdue to finish a job 
• Sign in to hazardous zones, triggering alerts if you spend too long in a dangerous environment

Reason 5 – health screening questions

Safeguarding the health of employees has never been more important. With the latest version of WolMobile, you can now configure custom questions for employees and service providers to carry out health screening as they come on-site. 

This feature can also be used to reinforce your safety rules. Require all workers on-site to wear PPE? A hard hat? Report to reception before they begin work? You can create any question you need to check-in with employees and service providers, receiving alerts if anyone answers against your policy. 

Ready to get started? 

Migrating to the new WolMobile is easy, and can be done in three simple steps: 

1. Enable the new app in your account
2. Configure the settings you’d like to use
3. Invite your employees and service providers to download the new app
