Whale The Whale Mobile App

The Whale app runs natively on iOS and Android. iOS requires version 15 or later and runs on iPhone and iPad. Android requires version 9 or later and runs on phones and tablets. Install from the App Store or Google Play. Workers sign in with the same email and password they use for the web app, or through single sign-on if your organization has SSO configured. Admins can provision access through the same user groups and role rules that control the web app, so frontline workers see only the content that applies to their job.

Yes. The Whale app supports personal email sign-in, SMS invites, and single sign-on. Teams in construction, manufacturing, hospitality, and home services often onboard workers with a personal email or phone number rather than a company inbox. Admins send an invite, the worker installs the app, signs in, and lands directly in the content assigned to their role or user group. No corporate laptop or IT ticket required. Access rules, user groups, and assignments behave the same as they do for desk-based staff.

The app caches content the worker has opened recently, so the most-used SOPs and assigned training steps remain readable without a live connection. Checklists completed offline sync back to Whale when the device reconnects. For sites with no connectivity at all, pair the app with QR codes on equipment or stations so workers scan straight to the relevant SOP when they arrive. Live Alice answers and analytics updates require a connection. The offline layer is built for read access and checklist completion in low-signal environments.

Yes. A training flow assigned to a worker appears in the mobile inbox in the same order as on the web. The worker reads the playbook, watches the video, completes the checklist, and takes the quiz, all on the phone. Passing scores release the next step automatically. Read assignments track receipt, quizzes track retention, and checklists track completion. Managers see every action in the same analytics dashboard as desk-based users. Frontline and office completion data live in one place, per person, per team, per location.

Admins provision users in Whale the same way they do for the web product. Group users by role, department, site, or shift. Assign training flows and required reading to those groups. Send invites by email, SMS, or QR code poster. Workers install the app, sign in, and land directly in the content that applies to their role. For larger deployments, the Paycor HRIS integration creates users automatically when payroll adds them, and the assigned training flow starts without any manual step. Admin analytics track install and completion rates per site so rollout gaps surface early.

Trainual ships a mobile app for training content only. The Whale app covers the full SOP lifecycle on mobile. Frontline workers read any SOP in the knowledge base, run assigned training flows, take quizzes, complete checklists, and ask Alice, Whale’s AI assistant, for help on the same device. Managers see mobile completion data in the same dashboard as web users. Teams moving from Trainual usually cite cleaner mobile UX, stronger AI answers on the phone, and the ability to run operational checklists and documentation from the same app, not just training courses.
