ServiceM8 on Android
ServiceM8 on Android: what works and what to check
Does ServiceM8 work on Android? Yes. Its current Android app offers most of its iOS workflows, including jobs, schedules, quotes, invoices and payments. Some specialist features still differ between platforms. Compare the actions your crew needs on each phone before choosing.
Checked 17 October 2026 using ServiceM8's current help centre. This comparison is published by Leadhand, an alternative job management app.
What can the ServiceM8 Android app do?
If your crew uses both Android and iPhone, test the same job on each. Check who can create and change a job, adjust a quote, add photos, see the schedule and prepare an invoice. Include any forms or add-ons you depend on. An app being available on both platforms does not establish that every feature is identical.
ServiceM8 lists job creation, scheduling, client communication, quotes, invoices and payments on Android. Access also depends on staff permissions and enabled account features. Its current documentation is broader than older descriptions of ServiceM8 Lite.

Try the same job on Android and iPhone

Every tech sees the day's jobs, drops photos straight onto the job, fills in site checklists and builds quotes on the spot, whatever phone they carry. Broader setup and reporting live in the web app, and there is a free plan.
