Customisable Main Menu on App

Overview:

The proposed feature aims to enhance user experience and efficiency by allowing users to customise the main menu on the app. This includes the ability to move, remove, or add specific menu options based on individual or company preferences.

Detailed Request:

• Users have expressed the need for a more tailored app interface that aligns with their specific workflow and requirements. The current static menu includes options that may not be relevant to all users, leading to potential confusion or oversight.

• By allowing customisation, users can ensure that the menu reflects their most frequently used features and eliminates unnecessary options.

How Should It Work:

1. Introduce a "Customise Menu" option within the app settings.

2. Allow users to drag and drop menu items to rearrange their order.

3. Provide an option to hide or remove specific menu items, such as Assets, Accounts, Leads, or Diary.

4. Ensure that any customisation is saved and persists across app sessions.

5. Offer a reset option to revert to the default menu layout if needed.

Implication & Need:

• Customising the main menu can significantly improve user efficiency by ensuring that the most relevant and frequently used options are easily accessible. It also reduces the risk of errors or oversights, such as missing important notes in the Diary or Jobs.

• By providing a tailored app experience, users can navigate and complete tasks more efficiently, leading to increased productivity and user satisfaction.

Use Cases:

• Technicians: Removing unnecessary menu options like Assets, Accounts, or Leads to streamline their workflow.

• Schedulers: Prioritising the Jobs option over the Diary to ensure that no tasks are overlooked.

• Administrators: Customising the menu layout based on company-specific workflows and ensuring that all team members have a consistent app interface.

Developer's Suggestion:

• To further enhance the customisation experience, a "Star" feature can be introduced. Users can "star" or "favourite" specific menu items or sections of the app.

• These starred items would then appear in a dedicated "Starred Menu" section, providing quick access to the user's most frequently used features.

• This approach offers a balance between customisation and ease of access, ensuring that users have a seamless and efficient app experience.
