Desktop application

A busy counter is faster with a keyboard than a thumb. The desktop app is the same books on the machine the shop already has.

Where a desktop still wins

Phones are excellent for a delivery person and a shop of one. They are not what you want for a wholesaler entering forty-line bills, or a counter with a wired thermal printer and a full-size screen where the queue can see the total.

The desktop app exists for that setting. It is the same account, the same books and the same stock — used on the hardware the job actually suits.

Getting set up

  1. 1Install on Windows

    On the counter machine.

  2. 2Sign in

    The same account as the phone.

  3. 3Set the printer

    The one the counter actually uses.

  4. 4Bill as usual

    The books are shared with every other device.

Inside Platform and Accessibility

The app itself, wherever you use it: Android, iOS, the browser and Windows, kept in step so a bill raised on the counter phone is on the office laptop a moment later. The language, the notifications and the work that runs in the background live here too.

You notice this area when you switch devices, hand the phone to a staff member who reads another language, or expect a reminder to have gone out while the app was closed.

Questions people ask

Is the desktop app a different product?

No — the same account and the same books, on a machine better suited to a fixed counter.

Does it work with a wired printer?

Printer settings are part of the app; the desktop is the usual home for a wired counter printer.

What about Mac or Linux?

The web app runs in a browser on any machine, which is the route for those.

Bill faster where the counter is fixed

Forty lines is a keyboard job, not a thumb job.
