Device permissions

Android permissions

Android 11 or later users must set appropriate permissions for the Skedulo mobile app to function correctly.

When users with an Android device running with Android version 11 or later run the Skedulo mobile app for the first time, the following prompt is displayed requesting permission to access the device’s location:

  1. Tap While using the app.
  2. The next screen provides information about how the Skedulo mobile app uses location tracking to provide accurate tracking for travel between jobs if the Skedulo mobile app is being run in the background. Tap Continue.
  3. On the next screen, select Allow all the time to allow Skedulo to track travel between jobs even in the background, then tap the back arrow in the upper-left corner to accept the changes and return to the app.

We recommend that you set location access permission to Allow all the time.

Skedulo only tracks a resource’s location during the time of their availability, even when permission has been set to Allow all the time.

If permission is set to Allow only while using the app, the following Skedulo features will be unavailable:

  • Current location
  • Actual route
  • Geolocation on job status change
