The Craneye app — overview & signing in

The Craneye app is the phone-friendly side of Craneye. It’s one app for everyone on the ground — it just shows a different home depending on who signs in:

• Owners & managers get a read-only command centre: fleet map, jobs, machine passports, alerts and dispatch readiness — everything you’d watch from the office, in your pocket. See Owner & manager app.
• Field crew, operators and drivers get their day: checking in, daily logs, machine transit and trailer route trips. See Field crew & site toolkit.
• Operations & workshop additionally get the on-site toolkit — find a machine, log hours, raise a breakdown, issue parts, file a site report.

The office roles (accounts, and anyone whose work lives on the desktop) are gently pointed to the web app instead — the phone app only carries what’s useful on site or on the move.

Installing the app

Android — Google Play Search “Craneye” or install straight from Play.

Android — direct APK Sideload the latest build directly (useful for pilots).

iOS

An iOS build is distributed through TestFlight to invited testers. Ask your Craneye contact for an invite.

Signing in

You sign in with the account your workspace owner created or invited — the same email you’d use on the web app. There are two ways in:

⤢

Password — the default.

⤢

Email code — no password needed.

1. Password — enter your work email and password, then Sign in to Craneye. Forgotten it? Tap Reset password to get a reset link by email.

2. Email code — tap the Email code tab, enter your email, and tap Email me a code. We send a 6-digit code to your inbox (it’s valid for 15 minutes); type it in to sign in. Handy on a shared or new phone where you don’t want to type a password. You can request a fresh code after a short cool-down.

Field crew logins

Crew and driver logins are created directly by your owner or operations lead (email + password) — there’s no invite email to accept. Office roles join by emailed invite instead. See Team & roles.

Where each role lands

Once you’re in, the app takes you straight to the home that fits your role:

If you’re…	You land on	What you can do
Owner	Owner dashboard	Watch the fleet, jobs, alerts, machine passports, dispatch readiness — read-only.
Operations / Workshop	On-site toolkit	Find machines, log hours, timesheets, site reports, breakdowns, parts.
Field crew / driver	My jobs	Check in, log the day, run machine transit and trailer route trips.
Accounts / office-only	A pointer to the web app	These roles have no on-site duties, so the phone app sends you to the desktop.

Staying signed in & notifications

The app keeps you signed in between shifts. If you allow notifications, Craneye can push alerts to your phone — a dispatch blocked at the gate, an override used, a certificate expiring — even when the app is closed. Owners can fine-tune which alerts push in notification settings.
