The Mobile App For Administrators
As part of LeaveWizard, we provide an app for iOS and Android smart phones and devices. The mobile app allows administrators to make leave requests and get essential information.
Get The App
You can download the app from Google Play Store for Android or the App Store for iOS devices. The apps are free to download. During installation, please allow notifications so that you benefit from full app functionality. The mobile app is the same for all LeaveWizard users, but administrators, managers and employees will get access to different functions.
The ‘Login’ Page
Login To The App
If you are an employee of a company that already subscribes to LeaveWizard, then use your regular username and password to sign in.
However, if you have not received a welcome email or a username from your company, then please contact your human resources team.
If they have given you a username but you have not already set up a password on the web app, then you can do it on the mobile app using the ‘Forgot password?’ link.
Options
You can enable the ‘Remember Me’ slider to allow biometric authentication. If you close the app and don’t log out, you can then use your fingerprint to sign in next time without having to enter your username and password.
New Trial Company
If you are not an employee of an existing company that subscribes to LeaveWizard, you can set up a new trial company. You can do that using the ‘Register a new company account’ link.

Navigation Footer
You can navigate between the ‘My Leave’, ‘My Team’ and ‘Calendar’ pages by clicking the icons. The app highlights the currently selected page in orange.
The ‘My Leave’ Page
The ‘My Leave’ page has two information panes, the ‘Events Pane’ at the top and the ‘Leave Requests Pane’ below.
Events Pane
The ‘Events’ pane displays your remaining allowance for each event type for the current leave year. You can swipe left or right to navigate the list.
Leave Requests Pane
The ‘Leave Requests’ pane lists all your requests for a leave year. It orders them by status (Approved – Pending – Expired) and also chronologically. Clicking on a request will provide more information about it.
You can swipe up or down to navigate the list and there is a drop-down box to select which leave year at the top.
If you want to create a new leave request, click the large circular ‘+’ icon in the bottom right-hand corner and a request form will appear.
The ‘My Team’ Page
The ‘My Team’ page has two sections, ‘Allowances’ and ‘Requests’, which you can select by clicking the section’s name.
Allowances Section
This section lists the allowance this year and the remaining allowance for each member of your team. You can select the event type and year from the respective drop-down at the top.
The list is in alphabetical order by surname. You can swipe up or down to navigate the list.
If you want to create a new leave request, click the large circular ‘+’ icon in the bottom right-hand corner and a request form will appear.
Requests Section
This section lists all the requests made by your team this leave year. If there are requests pending approval, then the section selector will have an orange circle showing the number outstanding. It orders them by status (Pending – Approved – Expired) and also chronologically. Each request has its status highlighted by a colour coded label in the top right-hand corner. It marks ‘Expired’ requests as ‘Past’.
You can swipe up or down to navigate the list.
If you want to create a new leave request, click the large circular ‘+’ icon in the bottom right-hand corner and a request form will appear.
The ‘Calendar’ Page
The calendar displays a single month. It highlights ‘today’ in light blue and your non-working days in dark grey, when visible. Depending on your company and personal settings on the web app, it will also mark Public holidays. Similarly, visibility of events will also follow the same settings and restrictions as the web app.
If you click on a day that has events, a pop-up will appear providing more information about the requests for that day. This includes who the request is for, the event type, and its status.
If you want to create a new leave request, click the large circular ‘+’ icon in the bottom right-hand corner and a request form will appear.
You can navigate to the next month with a swipe to the right and the previous month with a swipe to the left.
