Once you and your staff are in a company, you are ready to start tasks.

Note: You can only start tasks in the app.

To start a task, simply:

  1. Open the app

  2. Tap the blue rounded ‘Task’ button at the bottom right of the screen

  3. Give your task a name

  4. Set a duration

  5. Review and tap ‘Create Task’

  6. During an active task, you can extend and complete a task, and you can also request emergency help

See the demo below:

When you're starting with Safepoint, we'd recommend running some test tasks with an admin or guardian looking at their own Web Portal or App; this will help your team get to grips with the new system.

Tip: try and estimate accurately how long your task will take. If you're in doubt or have a very long task ahead of you, try setting a shorter timer. You can always extend the time during the task or finish up and create a new task. Shorter task lengths mean better response times in the case of an emergency.

Next, we'll look at triggering alerts in the App.
