Overview

When your manager invites you to the schedule, you will receive a welcome SMS message if your mobile number was inputted. Reply with YESWIW to get schedule updates via SMS.

Considerations

If you are logged into the When I Work iPhone, iPad, or Android app, you will receive mobile alerts by push notification rather than SMS. If you prefer to receive SMS messages, log out of all When I Work apps.
