# The app for the round

> One person, one device, one round, and clear rules about what the app knows.

## What the app does

1. **Sign in**: Your care service sends you an invitation link. You open it on your work phone and enter your phone number. That's it.
2. **See the round**: All of the day's visits in driving order, with address, access note, tasks and the summary of the last conversation.
3. **Drive and arrive**: Navigation with Apple Maps, “Arrived” and “Complete visit”. If a visit is running late, you see the new arrival time.
4. **Tasks and calls**: Tick off tasks, call the client or relatives with a question.

## When the app shares your location

- **During the round:** Yes, from “Start navigation” or the first status change, while the app is open. The app shows a visible notice while it is tracking.
- **After the last visit:** No. Tracking ends when all visits are done.
- **Free time and days off:** No. The server also discards positions outside a round.
- **Evaluations about you:** None. There are no rankings and no break or speed profiles.

## Conversation recording

The record button only exists if the client has consented. The recording is visible, is deleted from the device after uploading and serves to document the visit, not to assess your work.
