BEFORE YOU START
- Download the app from the App Store (iOS) or Google Play (Android) — search for your firm's name OR the generic Provectus Client Portal app
- Have your magic link from your accountant's invitation email handy
STEP BY STEP
- Install and open the app
- The first time, click your magic link from your accountant's email — it routes into the app and signs you in
- Set up biometric login: Face ID / Touch ID / fingerprint — so you don't need email links every time
- Five tabs at the bottom: Home, Requests, Documents, Invoices, Profile
- Home: dashboard of pending items
- Requests: things your accountant has asked you for (organizers, document uploads, signatures)
- Documents: your file library, organized by year and type
- Invoices: see and pay invoices
- Profile: your info, biometric settings, sign out
- Push notifications keep you updated when your accountant sends new requests, signs are needed, or invoices are ready
- The mobile app shows your firm's brand (logo, colors, name) — not a generic platform
TIPS / GOOD TO KNOW
- Phase 1 launch: shared App Store app with per-firm branding via theming
- Phase 2 (some enterprise firms): dedicated app per firm — separate App Store listing with that firm's name
- Camera capture is great for paper documents — there's a built-in document scanner
- Push notifications can be enabled per-event in Profile (so you're not over-notified)
TROUBLESHOOTING
- App shows wrong firm's brand: uninstall, reinstall, click your magic link freshly — JWT theming claim sometimes needs a re-auth
- Biometric login isn't working: re-enable in Profile → Security; some phones require re-enrollment after iOS/Android updates
- Push notifications not arriving: check phone Settings → Notifications → enable for the app
