Learn moreTasks
Taks lets managers assign to-dos to one person or a whole group, add photos, videos, and files, set deadlines, and track progress in real time from any smartphone. Everyone sees exactly what needs doing and by when, so nothing gets lost on a paper list.
Tasks and to-dos do not belong on flimsy paper lists, especially in frontline work. Assign, manage, and track tasks in one central place so the important things get done right, and on time.

Frontline work moves fast, and instructions on paper or in a group chat get lost. Managing tasks in one shared, mobile place makes every to-do visible, assigns clear ownership, and gives employees the context they need to finish the job right. In Flip, that lives alongside everything else your teams use.
It is hard to do well when it is unclear what needs doing. Give employees easy to follow instructions about what to do and when, plus a way to ask questions. Employees see every task assigned to them, while managers track team progress at a glance.
Distributing tasks should lighten the load, not add to it. Managers get one central place to create, communicate, and oversee what their teams need to complete, so they can get back to work that adds value.
More visibility over to-dos makes it easier to spot which tasks tend to stall, which are at risk, and which employees are overloaded. With those insights, managers plan time, resources, and training more effectively and plug the productivity drain.
The solution
Turn to-dos into have-dones with one place to see and assign tasks, resolve questions, manage deadlines, and track progress. From completing safety training to setting up in store displays, no task is too big or too small.
Regional managers, store owners, or frontline staff can create tasks for themselves or others. Type a name and description, set a due date, attach any media, and assign it to the right people.
Text is not always the clearest way to explain a job. Add photos, videos, links, and other file types to a task, ideal for complex work or handing over a project in progress.
With its simple, intuitive interface, Tasks is a clear way to onboard new employees. Skip the paperwork and guide them step by step through their first days in Flip. See how Flip supports training and onboarding.
