The week view answers who's busy this week. The Day view answers what does today actually look like — the times run down the left, each engineer gets a column, and every job sits at the hour it's booked for, as tall as it's going to take.
Where to find it
Head to the Schedule and tap Day at the top left. It opens on today, scrolled to the hour you're in.
Three ways to get to a day
Which one's quickest depends on how far away the day is.
- A day you can already see. In Week view, click the date at the top of its column — WED 7 Oct — and that day opens. Same in Month view: click the square.
- The day either side. The arrows sit either side of the date, so ‹ and › step back and forward one day (or one week, or one month — whichever view you're in). This week brings you back.
- A day that isn't on screen. Click the date itself — 5 – 11 Oct 2026 — and a small calendar opens. Pick any day in any month, and Mucka takes you there.
That last one works in all three views, and it means what you'd expect in each: in Day view you land on that day, in Week view on the week it falls in, and in Month view on that month. So getting to a Tuesday in December is one click and one pick, not a lot of tapping the arrow.
What you're looking at
- Times down the left. The grid starts at 7am and finishes at 7pm, and stretches if you've got something booked earlier or later — a 6am first call or a 9pm emergency is on the grid, not off the end of it.
- A column per engineer. Everyone shows, including anyone with nothing on. "Free all day" under a name is the answer to who can take this.
- A red line across the day showing the time right now, so you can see at a glance what should be happening and what's still to come.
- Gaps between jobs are marked with how long they are. An hour and a half doing nothing between two calls is the thing worth spotting.
- Two jobs on the same person at the same time sit side by side, rather than one hiding the other. If you've double-booked someone, you'll see it.
- Each job shows where it is. The work address sits on its own line at the bottom of the block — the property's address when the job's at one, the client's otherwise. On a narrow column the street shortens, but the postcode always stays. Hover a job for the full thing.
Personal appointments and anything synced from your Google or Microsoft calendar show on the grid too, so the day you see is the whole day.
Drag a job to a new time
Pick a job up and drop it where you want it:
- Up or down moves it to a different time. It lands on the nearest quarter hour, and a marker shows you the new start time while you're dragging.
- Across to another column moves it to that engineer.
- Both at once does both.
Let go and it saves. Mucka checks for a clash on the new slot first and warns you before it commits, exactly as it does when you book a job in. Everyone affected gets told — see Reassign or reschedule a job.
Jobs from a connected calendar can't be dragged: those live in the calendar they came from, so you'd change them there.
Book straight into a gap
Click an empty patch in someone's column and Mucka offers Add Job or Add Appointment, already set to that engineer and that time. Pick the client and you're done.
Common gotchas
- A job that runs past midnight shows on both days, marked with a small arrow at the end it carries on into.
- All-day calendar events sit in a strip above the clock rather than filling the whole column, because they're not a booking from midnight to midnight.
- Dragging onto the Unassigned column does nothing. Taking a job off an engineer is deliberate — open the job and change it there.
- Times are shown as the engineer's slot. If you sold the customer an arrival window ("some time this morning"), the block shows the window you promised, not just the start time.
Mucka remembers how you like it
Whichever of Day, Week or Month you were last in is the one you get next time — after a reload, after signing out, tomorrow morning. Same for the Weekends tick on the desktop schedule — leave it on and Saturday and Sunday stay on the grid. If you live in Month, you stop re-picking Month every day.
Your phone remembers separately from your computer, because they're not the same job: the Diary on a phone opens on Today unless you've told it otherwise, and switching your laptop to Month doesn't change what your phone opens on.
Two things to know:
- A link always wins. Open a job from a search result, a notification or a link somebody sent you and you get the view that link points at, not your usual one. Your preference is only used when you go to the schedule without saying where.
- It's per device and per browser. A different computer, or the same computer in a private window, starts from the normal defaults.
