Quick Notes on Mobile

Quick Notes on the Kibu mobile app provides a fast and efficient way to document observations and important information while on the go. Located in the center tab of the bottom navigation bar, Quick Notes gives you instant access to documentation capabilities.

​
Key Features

​
Instant Documentation

Just like on the web platform, the Mobile app allows you to quickly jot down any observations, events, or important information about your members. These notes are automatically:
  • Time-stamped
  • Added to the member’s service record for the day
  • Accessible by your team members

​
Multi-Language Support

We understand that many DSPs prefer to document in their native language. The Kibu mobile app fully supports multi-language documentation through:
  • Native keyboard speech-to-text in any language
  • Built-in translation tool in the bottom left corner
  • Seamless translation between languages for team collaboration

​
How to Use Quick Notes

  1. Tap the Quick Notes icon in the center of the bottom navigation bar
  2. Tag members in your note by typing @ followed by their name (e.g. @John Smith)
    • When you tag a member, the note will automatically appear in their daily service record
  3. Enter your observation using either:
    • Regular text input
    • Your keyboard’s speech-to-text function
  4. If needed, use the translation tool to convert your note to english after speaking in your native language
  5. Tap Save to complete your note
