Pick who’s holding it

Each person sees the NextUp that fits their job. Choose a role, then a device, to see exactly what they get.

Your business, on your regulars’ home screen

Invite your clients to the NextUp app and your business opens in your colors, with your name at the top. They book, join the line, keep their appointments and message your team, all without a password.

  • Your hours, today’s wait and whether you’re open, on the first screen
  • Book or join the line in a tap, with their details already filled in
  • A calendar of their appointments and visits with you, receipts included
  • Message the business, or the barber or stylist they always see
  • A notification when they’re called, and when you reply
  • Only businesses that invited them show up. No ads, no other shops.

Coming soon to the App Store and Google Play. The same screens run in any browser today.

The client app on an iPhone, in dark mode

The client app Coming soon

What your clients see, tab by tab

Five tabs, in your colors and with your name at the top. It follows their phone’s light or dark mode, so it always looks at home.

  1. Home

    Your look and name, whether you’re open, the wait, their next visit and one-tap actions.

  2. Book

    Your own booking and check-in page, with their name and email already in.

  3. Calendar

    Every appointment and visit with you, by month, and what’s coming up.

  4. Messages

    A conversation with the business or their own barber. Nobody shares a cell number.

How your clients get your app

Clients connect only through you. Being on your client list never adds anyone, and nobody sees your business unless you sent them your link.

  1. 1

    Share your app link

    Text or email it, put it on your website and booking page, or add the app block to an email campaign. Each location has its own link.

  2. 2

    Or show the QR code

    Print it for the counter, or read out the 8-character invite code. Clients type it into the app.

  3. 3

    They sign in with a code

    A one-time code by email, no password. They land on your business, linked to their client profile by email or mobile number.

  • Make a new link any time; the old link and QR code stop working
  • Messaging is off until you turn it on
  • Replies arrive as a notification on their phone
The TV and the door TV apps coming soon

The waiting room, and the front door

The TV shows who’s being called and who’s next, with a chime and their name said out loud. The tablet by the door lets walk-ins join without their phone.

Questions about the apps

Do my customers have to download the app to join the line?

No. Anyone can join from your QR code or link in their phone’s browser, with no app and no account. The app is for the regulars you invite: their bookings, calendar and messages with your team in one place.

Will my clients see other businesses in the app?

No. A client only sees businesses that invited them with their own app link, QR code or invite code. There’s no marketplace, no ads and no “similar places nearby”.

Does the app cost extra?

No. The apps for iPhone, iPad, Android, Apple TV, Roku, Fire TV and Google TV are included in every plan, for you, your team and your clients.

When can I download it?

The apps are on their way to the App Store, Google Play, the Amazon Appstore and the Roku Channel Store. Until then everything runs in a browser: your app link opens the same client screens on any phone, and the dashboard, staff screen and TV work in any browser today.

Set it up once. Use it on everything.

Start in a browser today. When the apps arrive, sign in with the same account and everything is already there.
