IMPORTANT: Make sure the username the employees is using to log in matches the username you have listed in your system. If the employee used a different username, they're not logging into your company's account and none of their entries will be able to sync.

Tip #3: Make Sure busybusy can Access your Cellular Service

Do you Allow the Mobile Device to use Cellular Service?

  • Go to your phone settings>> busybusy app>> assure Cellular Data toggle is turned on

  • Once this is turned on hard close the app and open it once again to reboot.

  • If the app is still not syncing, try logging out and logging back in

Do you have Cellular Service?

  • If the employee has poor connectivity, the data will not sync until the employee has reached cellular service or connected to the internet
