For the one-van window cleaner
Your round, on the seat beside you
WindowRound replaces the notebook on the dashboard. Every customer on a cycle, today’s jobs in the order you set, and a straight answer to who has paid and who has not.
Android. Up to 25 customers on the standard tier, with no time limit.
The day sheet
Open it in the van and today is already there
Each job shows the address, the price, the access notes, whether it is front only, and when you last did it. One tap marks it.
Done
The next visit is set a cycle on from the day you actually did it, not from the day it was due. A job caught up late does not drag the rest of your year forward with it.
Skipped, or nobody in
The job stays due. It is on tomorrow’s sheet and every sheet after that until somebody does it, instead of quietly disappearing for another four weeks.
Cycles of two, three, four, six, eight or twelve weeks, or any number of days you like. Gutters and conservatory roofs keep their own clock, so clearing the windows never clears the gutters.
Who owes you
The board you check on a Sunday night
Every unpaid visit, oldest first, with a running total. Each debt is aged from the day of the job at 30 and 60 days, so you can see which ones have stopped being an oversight.
The text is already written
Their name, the amount and the date filled in, ready for you to read over and send from your own number.
Part payments
Record what they handed you without losing what was originally charged. The balance is still there to see.
Paid in one tap
Cash, bank transfer, card or a standing order you have set up elsewhere. WindowRound writes it down; it never takes the money.
Getting started
Your round in, without retyping it
Bring the list in
Import a spreadsheet and WindowRound matches the columns for you, however your file spells them, and reads a cycle written as 4, 4 weeks, 28 or 28 days.
Put them in your order
Drag each customer into the order you actually drive. Nothing tries to plan a route for you, because the order in your head is the right one.
Work the first sheet
Everything imported starts due today, so your first sheet is the whole round. Work down it and the cycles sort themselves out from there.
On the phone
What it actually looks like
Also in there
The rest of the paperwork
Quotes
Count the windows by type at your own rate for each one, give them a total on the doorstep, and send it as a text. A yes turns the quote into a customer on the round.
Texts
Night before, arrears, price rise, back after a break. Each one is filled in and handed to your own messaging app. Nothing is ever sent by the app.
The books
Money received by month and by method, kept apart from what is still owed. Expenses by category, the miles you drove, and the lot as a PDF or a spreadsheet.
The income figures are your own record of what you wrote down. WindowRound calculates no tax, applies no mileage allowance and files nothing with anybody.
Where your round lives
On your phone, and nowhere you did not put it
There is no account to make and no round to upload. A text goes out through your own messaging app; an export goes where you choose. WindowRound itself sends crash reports and anonymous usage counts, so faults get found and fixed.
Back the lot up to one file, photos included, and restore it on any phone. A restore adds what is missing and never wipes what is already there.
What it costs
Pay once, or do not pay at all
Most cleaners pick this
once, and that is that
a year
a month
The standard tier keeps a round of up to 25 customers with the day sheet, the cycles, the outcomes and the texts. There is no time limit on it. The full round book adds unlimited customers, the aged owed board and its reminder text, quotes, reports, exports and the spreadsheet import. Whichever you are on, every customer and every visit you have already written down stays there to read.
There is a 14 day trial if you want one. You switch it on yourself; nothing starts it for you and no card is asked for.
Questions
Before you download it
Is this for finding a window cleaner?
No. It is for the person doing the cleaning: your own round, your own customers, your own money.
Do my customers need the app?
No. Nothing asks them to sign up. They get a text from your own number, sent by you.
Can it plan my route for me?
No, and it does not try. You drag your customers into the order you actually drive, and the day sheet keeps that order.
What happens when it rains?
Mark the job skipped. It stays due and comes back on tomorrow’s sheet, and every sheet after that, until somebody does it. Only a completed clean moves the customer on to the next cycle.
I already have my round in a spreadsheet.
Import it. WindowRound matches the columns for you, however your file spells them, and reads a cycle written as 4, 4 weeks, 28 or 28 days.
What happens if I never pay?
You keep up to 25 customers with the day sheet, the cycles, the outcomes and the texts. There is no time limit on it, and every customer and visit you have already written down stays there to read.
Does it collect the money?
No. It does not take payments, run direct debits or collect by standing order. It writes down what you were paid and shows you who has not paid yet.
What if I change phones?
Back the lot up to one file, photos included, and restore it on the new phone. A restore adds what is missing and never wipes what is already there.
