Are you in two places at once?

We make every effort to automagically keep track of your time at tracked jobs. When we detect you have started work at a new job and you are currently clocked in at another job we will automatically clock you out of the old job. Most likely the device missed you leaving the first job. It could have been any of the following:

• The device was OFF and is now ON.
• Airport Mode was ON and is now OFF
• The Job Locations are very, very close to one another.
• The Job Locations are within a few miles of each other.
• Cellular confusion.

Cellular confusion? Most likely there are multiple tracked Jobs that are close to you. Try enabling WiFi. If it is still having trouble, you may have to turn OFF tracking at some of the Jobs.   Why can't Easy Hours locate me accurately?.

Are you in two places at once?

We make every effort to automagically keep track of your time at tracked jobs. When we detect you have started work at a new job and you are currently clocked in at another job we will automatically clock you out of the old job. Most likely the device missed you leaving the first job. It could have been any of the following:

• The device was OFF and is now ON.
• Airport Mode was ON and is now OFF
• The Job Locations are very, very close to one another.
• The Job Locations are within a few miles of each other.
• Cellular confusion.

Cellular confusion? Most likely there are multiple tracked Jobs that are close to you. Try enabling WiFi. If it is still having trouble, you may have to turn OFF tracking at some of the Jobs.   Why can't Easy Hours locate me accurately?.

Easy Hours 9.3 is on the Play Store as soon as it updates. Easy Hours Lite 9.3 is on the Play Store as soon as it updates.

We use Google services for Email, Sync, Maps, and Location services. Email and Sync require you to permit Easy Hours to do actions on your behalf such as sharing your Dashboard reports with your clients saving your valuable data to the cloud.

If Google feels that it needs to ask for your permissions again, it will send a notification. When you take action on the notification it will allow us to continue to provide these important features to you. If you delete the notification or do not take action you will lose out on the great features that Easy Hours provide.

Note that if you remove a Google Account, sign out of the Google Account on the device, or remove Easy Hours from the list of Google Connected Apps, you will likely be asked for permissions again.

Also see the Android Permissions.

Email

The Google email permission is used solely to send rich formatted emails with Google's OAuth2.0. Google's OAuth2 solution enables us to securely send email through GMail without having any access to your credentials. If you do not grant Easy Hours permission, you can still send text only emails using the Gmail App or any other installed apps that can handle sending CSV. The CSV will be attached to the email when it is composed.

You may be prompted for permission every once in awhile for increased security.

Maps - PRO only

Job locations are only supported if Google Play Services is installed and Easy Hours is given permission to access your location. This information is used for automatic functionality in the app.

See Google Permissions and Google. Android changed application permissions in Marshmallow so be aware that the application will now prompt you when it needs permission.
