Downloading the Paddl App

Where to get the Paddl Assist app and how to log in the first time.

An alert is not being raised

When you expect Paddl to flag something and it does not, check whether the alert was already handled or whether the thing it watches is switched off.

Staff are not getting push notifications

If reminders and alerts are not reaching a phone, the cause is usually the device, the notification settings, or the type of task.

A staff member cannot log in

Most sign-in problems come down to the account, the invite, or the subscription rather than the password itself.

A routine is not generating any tasks at all

When a routine creates no tasks for anyone, the cause is usually the routine setup itself rather than who can see it.

A routine is not showing up in the app

Work through the most likely reasons a routine is missing from a staff member's app, starting with the one that catches people out most.
