My BriqSafe is your home screen after you sign in. This article explains the web sidebar, the mobile menu, and the sections that help you return to your work, locations, visits, and reports.
NoteComplete onboarding before using the home screen. If onboarding is incomplete, BriqSafe redirects you to onboarding instead.
Open your home screen
- Sign in to BriqSafe.
- Open My BriqSafe in the main navigation to return to the home screen.
On the web, the left column shows your daily job progress ring, Jump back in, and Latest Reports. On a desktop-width browser, the right column also shows a map of your locations and My upcoming visits. On narrower screens, this section moves below the left column.
Use the web sidebar
The sidebar provides access to the main areas described below.
- My BriqSafe: Returns you to your personalised home screen.
- Locations: Opens the locations page. Use this page to find locations that are not shown on the home map.
- Organisation Settings: Opens organisation options, including My Organisations. From there, you can open an organisation you are signed into or switch to another organisation.
- Account Settings: Opens your account area. Log Out is available here when the sidebar is pinned open.
The sidebar starts collapsed in a new browser. Select Expand sidebar at the bottom to show the organisation switcher and the names of the available items. When the sidebar is collapsed, Log Out is the last icon and its name appears when you hover over it.
Switch organisations
- Expand the sidebar with Expand sidebar.
- At the top of the sidebar, under Switch Organisation, select the organisation you want to use.
You can also open Organisation Settings, select My Organisations, open an organisation, and select Switch to this organisation on its overview. The organisation you are using is marked Current.
Use the mobile home screen and menu
Open the app or tap the My BriqSafe tab to reach the mobile home screen. Its sections appear in a fixed order:
- The day's visit progress
- Any location or notification banner
- My Quick Actions
- Your next visits
- Jump back in
- My Locations
- Latest Reports
On a tablet, Jump back in and Latest Reports appear side by side above My Locations. Pull down to refresh every section.
Open the menu from the mobile header to access Documents. This opens the document library in an authenticated in-app view. The last position on the bottom tab bar is Dashboard; Documents is available from the menu, not from that tab bar.
Use quick actions
- On the mobile home screen, find My Quick Actions.
- Tap Scan QR to open the QR scanner.
Scan QR is available to every user. If you can schedule visits, Create Job also appears. Tap Create Job to open the unified create-visit flow. Jobs are created inside a visit, so this does not open a separate add-job form.
Review locations
On mobile, scroll to My Locations. Each card shows the location's photo, name, address, and a status mark:
- A red count shows open cases.
- An amber count shows overdue jobs in their current period.
- A green check shows that there are no open cases or overdue jobs.
- Tap a location card to open that location.
- If more than nine locations are in scope, tap Show more.
The grid shows the first nine locations in list order, not by urgency. My Locations is hidden when no location is in scope.
View locations on the web map
- Open My BriqSafe in a desktop-width browser.
- Select a numbered cluster pin to zoom in until individual pins separate.
- Select a location pin to open that location's detail page.
The map loads up to the first 100 locations. Locations without map coordinates do not have pins. The map is not loaded at tablet or mobile widths, so use the Locations page on smaller screens or when you need to find locations beyond the first 100.
Open recent reports
On the web
- Open My BriqSafe.
- Find Latest Reports in the left column.
- Select a report to open it.
On mobile
- Open the My BriqSafe tab.
- Scroll to Latest Reports.
- If the report is not among the first four, tap Show more.
- Tap the report card, then tap View file.
Only completed reports appear. On mobile, a PDF opens in the browser and an image opens in the in-app image viewer. If a report shows Report file is not available, generate the report again. If a section fails to load, select Retry on the web or pull down to refresh on mobile.
Understand missing or loading sections
- A placeholder skeleton can appear while your profile loads.
- If location access cannot be determined, the home screen shows Failed to load permissions with Retry.
- Jump back in appears only for roles that can create jobs and waits for locations to finish loading.
- The next visits section is hidden while it loads and after a failed load. Pull down to retry.
- My Locations is hidden when no location is in scope.
- When Jump back in or Latest Reports finishes loading but has no content, it shows an empty-state card. The same card can also indicate a failed load, so pull down to refresh before deciding that there is no content.
