Dispatch Bros is the mobile companion to your Dispatch Bros workspace. Technicians manage their day in one place: today's jobs, calendar, two-way SMS with customers, in-app dialer for inbound and outbound calls, on-site card collection, invoices, estimates, and live GPS sharing for the dispatcher map. Owners and admins use the same app for company-wide visibility — the team's live locations, dispatch suggestions powered by fresh GPS, and the same close-job + payment flows the dispatcher dashboard uses. Dispatch Bros is account-bound. You sign in with the credentials your owner/admin provided. Mobile features mirror the web dashboard at app.dispatchbros.ai. Mobile features require a Dispatch Bros account.
