Requested

This allows you to view all Dollys you’ve requested, both in the past and in the future. You will be able to see the status of requests you have sent to other Helpers, as well as if the Dollys you requested have been completed, taken by another Helper, open, or cancelled.

Scheduled

This tab shows your assigned upcoming Dollys. Remember to review this tab often to make sure you don’t cause scheduling conflicts for both yourself and the customer.

Inbox

Shows your message threads between you, customers, and any Helpers or Hands you are scheduled to complete Dollys with.

Alerts

This is now displayed in the upper right corner of the app.

Allows you to keep track of your earnings from completed Dollys. You can also view cancelled Dollys you were scheduled on should you need to reach out to the Helper Team. At this time cancellation fees are not consistently displayed here, refer to your weekly earnings emails for a complete set of compensation information.

Vehicle Settings

Lets you add and remove qualified Trucks and Cargo Vans from your Helper Account. Should you need to add a trailer, you will need to add your vehicle towing the trailer (again) along with it. The Vehicle Settings menu does not display to Dolly Hands, as vehicles used by Hands are not tracked.

Notification Settings

There are different ways to manage notifications in the Helper app. Here is where you can turn notifications on / off for different days of the week and, should you choose, disable notifications during the work week.

Distance: You can adjust the radius of which you see Dollys from 5-50 miles.
Misc. Details: You can check/uncheck for each box.
- Example: Unchecking “Show 2-Helper Dollys” means you won't be notified of any 2-Helper Dollys.
Push Notifications: This is how you are notified of alerts. Ensure this is checked to receive notifications. You might need to check your device’s settings to make sure that notifications for the Helper app are turned on. You can use “Send Test Push Notification” to test if you receive push notifications.
