ArboristA tree service app built for the truck, not the office chair
Big buttons, high contrast, and a design that assumes you're outside in bright sun with work gloves on. And it keeps working when the property you're standing on has one bar of signal.
Built for spotty signal, not just a strong wifi connection
Rural properties and wooded lots often mean one bar of signal or none, and losing an estimate you were mid-way through building is a real cost — it's the job that's harder to win back once you're already standing in front of the customer.
ArboristDesk's app is built assuming spotty coverage is the normal case, not the exception. Estimates, schedules and job statuses are stored locally on the device first, then synced to the cloud when a connection is available. Standing under a canopy of trees with no bars doesn't mean losing the quote you just built.
One app for the whole job
The same app covers estimating on-site, checking today's schedule, and marking a job done — no separate apps to juggle for different parts of the day.
Built to not lose your work
A dropped connection, a backgrounded app, or a phone that restarts mid-task shouldn't mean losing the estimate you were building or the job status you were updating. ArboristDesk saves that work on the device first, then syncs it to your account in the same order you made the changes, as soon as a connection is available again.
That's a property of how the app is built, not a promise no software can make. It's designed to minimize data loss in these situations, not to guarantee it can never happen under any circumstance. If you hit something that doesn't match that description, our support team wants to hear about it.
Included on every plan
There's no separate mobile add-on or per-device fee. Every ArboristDesk plan, from Starter to Pro, includes the full mobile app for every user on the account.
Mobile app questions
Does the app work without signal?
Yes. Estimates, job details and status updates save on the phone and sync automatically once you're back in coverage — nothing gets lost on a rural property with no bars.
What happens if the app crashes or I lose signal while I'm mid-estimate?
Work in progress saves locally on the device as you go, so a dropped connection or a backgrounded app doesn't usually mean starting over. It syncs automatically once you're back in range.
Is the mobile app a separate purchase?
No. The mobile app is included on every plan, Starter through Pro, at no extra cost.
