The Smartphone app chapter comprises the subsections:
With the smartphone app, everyone in the team can record their working hours and display their tasks. Call up information about your tasks on site. Record times and notes for each task and mark tasks as completed. In the fields section, you can track the occupancy of the beds and call up the data by tapping on a planting-set. You can also record the harvest quantity directly in the field after harvesting.
All data can also be recorded offline and is transferred as soon as the device has an Internet connection (mobile data or Wi-Fi). To be able to call up current data from task list and field allocation offline, these data must have been loaded once with an internet connection (for example, in the morning in the office).
Voice input: To quickly make notes in the cultivation planner app, you can use your smartphone’s voice input. Once this has been set up, it can be activated using the microphone icon (next to the keyboard) and you can record the note. To do this, select your preferred speech engine in the settings of your device under ‘Administration/Text to speech’ or similar.
