Working a route on your phone
One card, all your route's jobs — confirm once, set statuses in bulk, and share the completion report.

A route is a full run of jobs — spans, poles, sites — given to you as one card. You confirm it once, work through it, and the card tracks your progress.
Finding your routes
Routes appear on Today (for today's window) and at the top of Work. Each card shows the window, the route name, how many jobs it holds and how many are done. When a route is finished and its window has passed, it moves to Work's Past view.
New routes appear on Today/Work as soon as the office publishes them — check the app at the start of your day. If a route you already hold is changed or moved to someone else, you'll get a notification ("Your route changed" / "A route was reassigned").
Confirming
An unconfirmed route shows a Needs confirmation pill and a Confirm button. One tap confirms the entire route — every job in it — so the office knows you've seen it. If you haven't answered within 48 hours of the start, Maliru sends you a reminder: "Please confirm: {route}. This route starts soon and is still unconfirmed."
Updating jobs as you go
Open the route card. You'll see the window, your progress (7 of 12 done · 58%) and the full job list. Each row shows the job, its current status, and a chip naming which route line it belongs to.
To update status:
- Tick the jobs you've just completed (or any set that share a new status).
- A bar appears: Set status for 3 selected jobs.
- Tap the status button — the jobs update together and the progress bar moves.
You can select up to 500 jobs in one update. You can only set statuses on jobs assigned to you, and only to statuses your workstream defines.
Sharing the completion report
Tap Share report on the route to build a PDF completion report — a table of every job with its route, status and details, colour-coded green for done and amber for in progress, with your company's logo on it. You'll briefly see "Preparing report…", then your phone's share sheet opens so you can send it by message, email, AirDrop or save it to files.
Tip: the report reflects the statuses at the moment you build it — share it at the end of the day for a complete record of the route.
