Professional App: Use and Features

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.
