Overview
The Boulevard Professional App is available in the Apple App Store for iPhone and Google Play for Android. The app allows service providers to quickly view and edit work schedules and client contact information on the go. Boulevard Professional is designed to compliment, not replace, the main Boulevard desktop version. All changes or additions done on the app will instantly be updated on the main Boulevard dashboard.
Note: The images and instructions below are for the iPhone app, which is very similar to the experience on Android. Images for Android can be found at the end of this article.

Android Images
Use of the Boulevard Professional App on Android follows the same general instructions as above. Please reference the images below to show the experience on an Android device.









Staff Performance Metrics:
If given access (via privilege group settings), your employees are able to see an overview of their performance for any given date range by clicking the graph icon at the bottom of the screen.

The totals shown in this area are total, gross, sales (so the numbers are not taking the staff members' commission into account in this data). They can see their total appointments, clients, utilization, prebooked %, and service/product/gratuity sales.
These metrics refresh at the same frequency that beta reports refresh (currently not instant, but every ~2 hours).
