LI1P
LI1P — Planner & Books
LI1P (Life in 1 Place) is a planner and quiet bookkeeping app for people who run a small service business of their own, in whatever profession: cleaning and window cleaning, gardening, handyman and building work, hair, beauty and massage, pet care, car valeting, photography, tutoring and other professional services.
You mark a job done once, and LI1P fills in everything that follows from it: the customer's history, the month's work log, the invoice draft, the payments ledger and your reports. If the app already knows something, it never asks for it again.
What you can do with LI1P
- Plan your days and weeks. Book one-off and repeating jobs and appointments, move them, and see free time between them.
- Keep your customers in one place. Addresses, sites, the service each customer usually has, and their history with you.
- Invoice from the work you did. Invoices are drafted from completed jobs and produced as PDF documents.
- Record payments and expenses. Track what has been paid, reverse a payment entered by mistake, and keep expense receipts.
- Get reminders. Optional reminders on your phone for jobs and other things you plan.
Sending invoices from your own Gmail
If they choose to, a business's owner can connect the business's own Gmail account in Settings › Account › Invoice sending account. LI1P then sends the invoices you choose to send from that address, with the invoice PDF attached, so your customer receives it from you and can reply to you directly.
What LI1P asks Google for: permission to send email on your behalf (the gmail.send scope) and your email address, so LI1P can show which mailbox it sends from.
What LI1P cannot do: read, search, change or delete any email in your mailbox. The permission it asks for only allows sending.
When it sends: only when you, or a member of your business, open an invoice, choose to send it by email, review the message and confirm. Nothing is sent automatically.
The business owner can disconnect it at any time in Settings › Account › Invoice sending account, or from their Google Account's security settings. Details are in our Privacy Policy.
Who can use it
LI1P is currently available by invitation. It runs in your phone's or computer's web browser and can be added to your home screen.
