Frequently asked

How do I add a job?

Tap the + button in the top-right of the list, fill in the company (the only required field) plus any of role, location, date applied, status, link, and notes, then tap Save.

How do I change an application's status?

Open the job and use the Status picker — set it to Applied, Interviewing, Offer, Rejected, or Withdrawn. The color-coded badge on the list updates right away.

How do I edit or delete a job?

Tap a job and choose Edit to change any field. To delete, swipe the row left in the list.

How do I filter or search?

Use the status chips at the top of the list to show just one status (for example, only your active interviews), and the search bar to find a job by company, role, or location.

How do I open the original job posting?

If you saved a link with the job, open the job and tap the link to jump to the posting in your browser. You don't need to include "https://" — the app adds it for you.

Does it sync across my devices?

Yes. Job Trail syncs through your own private iCloud, so a job you add on your iPhone shows up on your Mac — and the other way around. There's nothing to set up and no account to create; it uses the iCloud you're already signed into. Make sure both devices use the same iCloud account with iCloud turned on.

Can I use it on my Mac?

Yes — Job Trail is available on Mac as well as iPhone, with the same features, and your list stays in sync between them via iCloud.

Does the app work offline?

Yes. You can add and edit jobs with no connection; your changes sync automatically through iCloud the next time you're online.

Does the app collect any data?

No. No accounts with us, no analytics, no tracking, no ads, and no servers of our own. The only data is what you type about your own applications, kept on your device and in your private iCloud — visible only to you. See the Privacy Policy.
