Team Hub Guide
Everything you need to get into the hub, put it on your phone like an app, and use it day to day.
1 · Getting access
- Leadership adds you to the team roster using your work Google account (your @crownheirs.com email). If you haven’t received one, ask Emily or Bethany.
- On your phone, open team.crownheirs.com in your browser (Safari on iPhone, Chrome on Android).
- Tap Sign in with Google and choose your work account — not your personal Gmail. If your phone signs you into the wrong account, tap your profile picture on the Google screen and switch.
- That’s it — no separate password to remember. Your Google sign-in is your login.
Seeing “you’re not on the team roster yet”? You signed in fine, but your email hasn’t been added yet — tell a manager which email you used.
2 · Put the hub on your home screen
The hub works like an app once it’s on your home screen — one tap, full screen, with the app tile.
iPhone (Safari)
- Open team.crownheirs.com in Safari (this doesn’t work from Chrome or the Google app on iPhone).
- Tap the Share button — the square with the arrow pointing up, at the bottom of the screen.
- Scroll down and tap Add to Home Screen.
- Tap Add (top right). The app tile appears on your home screen.
Android (Chrome)
- Open team.crownheirs.com in Chrome.
- Tap the ⋮ menu (top right).
- Tap Add to Home screen (on some phones it says Install app), then confirm.
Bonus: on My Profile there’s a personal calendar link — subscribe to it in Google or Apple Calendar and your shifts, meetings, and approved time off show up on your own phone calendar automatically.
Turn on notifications 🔔
- Open the hub from its home-screen tile (on iPhone this part matters — notifications only work from the installed tile).
- On the home page, tap Turn on in the gold notification banner — or go to My Profile → Notifications anytime.
- When your phone asks, tap Allow.
- Then tap Send a test under My Profile → Notifications. If it pops up, you’re set. If nothing arrives, the message on screen tells you what to check next.
Don’t wait for a real notification to find out. “Notifications are on” only means your phone registered — the test is the part that proves one can actually reach you.
You’ll get a gentle ping for new messages, schedule changes, meeting request updates, reminders, and on the 1st of the month when fresh KPIs are ready. Each device is its own switch — turn it off anytime under My Profile → Notifications.
3 · Using the hub day to day
The home screen greets you with “Needs your attention” — if something actually requires you to do something (sign a document, finish a training, renew a license, acknowledge something, an unread message), it’s listed there with a link straight to it. If it says “You’re all caught up ✓”, everything else on the page is just information.
- Time Clock — punch in when you arrive and out when you leave. Check in at or before your scheduled start.
- Daily Duties — your opening/closing and rotation tasks for the day. Check them off as you finish; it’s tracked.
- Schedule & Time Off — see the week’s schedule, request days off, and request shift swaps.
- Calendar — meetings, birthdays, and your own time off. Need a meeting with a manager, director, or the CEO/COO? Use Request a meeting right on the Calendar page — pick who, how soon, your time preference, and the days you’re available.
- Messages — the Whole Team chat reaches everyone; create groups (your tribe, front desk, Saturday crew) or message teammates directly. Photos and reactions work like you’d expect.
- Handbook — read it top to bottom once, then sign at the bottom of the page. The KPIs, Career Path, and Corrective Action pages live there too.
- Documents en español / en français — next to any uploaded file you’ll see ES and FR buttons. Tap one and the whole document is translated for you (the first time takes about a minute; after that it opens instantly).
- Training — videos and quizzes; anything required for your role shows on your to-do list until it’s done.
- My Profile — your photo (it uses your Google picture automatically), bio, licenses & certifications. Upload renewal certificates here — photos or PDFs up to 4 MB (a screenshot works great).
- Inventory — used up a product or unpacked a delivery? Open the item and tap − 1 · I used one or + 1 · One came in so the counts stay true. Anyone on the team can do this.
- Team Shop — order scrubs and merch. Scrubs let you pick your top size and bottom size separately; pay by card or payroll deduction.
- Facilities Request — something broken, leaking, or flickering? Report it under Resources → Facilities Request and management is notified immediately. For anything dangerous, tell a manager in person first.
- Suggestion Box & Meeting Notes — ideas welcome, and your 1:1 notes live under Team.
The welcome tour, the little gold tips & the ? helper
Your first time on the home page, a short welcome tour walks you around — five quick steps, skippable anytime. Around the hub you’ll also see soft gold tips (💡) pointing the way. Tap Got it ✓ when you’ve read one, or Turn off all tips if you’d rather explore without them.
There’s also a small ? button in the bottom-left corner of every page. It opens “What you can do here” — a list of everything your role can do on that page, and tapping any item shows the exact steps. It pops open by itself the first time you visit a page; choose “Don’t pop these up automatically” if you’d rather call on it yourself — the ? button always stays. Changed your mind? The buttons at the top of this page bring the tour, the tips, and the helpers back.
If something goes wrong
- Wrong Google account — sign out (your picture, top right → Sign out), then sign back in and pick the work account.
- A file won’t upload — it’s probably over 4 MB. The form will tell you; a screenshot of the document is the easy fix.
- Something didn’t save — the hub will say so with a red message and the reason. If it keeps happening, tell a manager exactly what you were doing.
Managers: print this page (button at the top) for new-hire packets, or send new teammates the link — this page is readable before signing in.
