Import a roster from a photo

Instead of typing, use a photo of the roster you already have. It can be a paper sheet, a spreadsheet screenshot or a PDF. Photo import is in the phone app. On the web, setup starts from example names you can rename later.

Steps for a business

1. In setup on the phone, open Who works with you? and tap Use a photo of your roster instead.
2. Tap Take a photo or Choose from photos.
3. Wait while the roster is read.
4. Check the people and shifts that were read. Dashed cells are the ones the app is least sure about.
5. Fix anything that was read wrong (tap a shift or a name), then tap the button at the bottom to use the list, for example Use 5 people.
6. Continue setup. Your shifts and people are filled in.

Steps for personal mode

1. Choose to import your roster from a photo.
2. Pick your own row from the people found.
3. Check your shifts, then import them into your calendar.

Good to know

• Roster import is a paid feature for a business, included in the 14-day trial. In personal mode it is part of Pro.
• Always check the result. Handwriting and blurry photos can be misread.
• A clear, straight, well-lit photo works best. Include the whole table and the names.
• If your roster is on a computer, a screenshot is better than a photo of the screen.

If it does not work

• If the app says We could not read that photo, try again with a sharper photo or a cropped image of just the table.
• You can also type the names in the Names field, separated by commas, or tap Use examples. See Add your team.
