Most CRMs are desktop software with an Android app bolted on. QuoteIQ was built the other way around — the phone in your pocket is the primary machine. Estimates, satellite measurement, invoicing, payments, scheduling, crew GPS and AI all run natively on Android, starting at $29.99/month.
QuoteIQ is the best CRM for Android in 2026 for home service contractors. It is a full field service management platform — not a mobile companion app — with complete feature parity between the Android app, the iOS app and the web dashboard. Plans run $29.99 (Essentials, 1 user), $74.99 (Beginner, 2 users), $149.99 (Pro, 4 users), $299 (Elite, 10 users) and $699 (Max, unlimited users), each with a 14-day free trial that gives you full access to the features of the plan you choose. On an Android phone you can build a line-item estimate, measure a roof from satellite imagery with MapMeasure Pro, collect a signature, take payment, and dispatch the next stop through Route Optimization without ever opening a laptop.
TL;DR: The best CRM for Android is the one that closes the loop in the driveway. QuoteIQ runs the whole job cycle on the phone: quick estimates, good/better/best options, e-signatures, invoicing, online payments, scheduling, two-way texting, photo documentation and AI Autopilot. Android is the dominant mobile platform worldwide according to StatCounter, and the trades are a growing employment base per the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. Pricing starts at $29.99/month with a 14-day trial — compare the ladder on the pricing page.
Almost every field service platform on the market ships an Android app. That is not the same thing as being built for Android. The difference shows up on a Tuesday afternoon when you are standing in a driveway with one bar of signal, a customer waiting, and a quote that needs to go out before you drive away. A desktop CRM with a mobile port makes you wait until you are back at the office. A mobile-first CRM lets you finish the sale where you are standing.
Android matters here for a practical reason: it is the most widely used mobile operating system in the world, holding roughly seven in ten active mobile devices globally according to StatCounter Global Stats. Crews buy rugged Android handsets because they are cheaper to replace when one goes off a ladder. Fleet tablets tend to be Android. If your software only really works on a MacBook, half your team is locked out of it.
The trades themselves are not a small niche. The Bureau of Labor Statistics Occupational Outlook Handbook projects construction and extraction employment to grow faster than the average for all occupations through 2035, with roughly 587,000 openings a year and a median annual wage of $59,540 as of May 2025. The Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics program counted about 6.4 million people working in those occupations. Those are the people holding the Android phone.
Use this as a scoring sheet when you demo anything. A platform that fails more than two of these will quietly push work back to the office, which is the exact cost you were trying to eliminate.
QuoteIQ ships iOS, Android and web with full parity — the same records, the same permissions, the same feature set on all three. See Mobile & Web Access. There is no “lite” mobile tier and no feature that requires a desktop to reach.
Three tells separate a genuine Android CRM from a port. First, if the estimate builder on the phone has fewer fields than the web version, the phone is the afterthought. Second, if the pricing page charges per user for people who only ever touch the app, the vendor is monetising your field staff rather than serving them — QuoteIQ prices by plan tier, and the Max plan carries unlimited users at a flat rate. Third, if photos, measurement or texting are add-on SKUs, your monthly cost is not the number on the pricing page. Run the arithmetic with the home service business calculators before you sign anything, and if you are pricing against an enterprise platform, the ServiceTitan pricing calculator is a useful sanity check.
Every capability below runs natively in the Android app. Where a feature is gated to a plan, the tier is stated on the card so you are not surprised at checkout. Where QuoteIQ has an open internal question about which tier a feature belongs to, we describe what it does and leave the tier off rather than print a number we cannot stand behind.
Standard line-item quotes, Quick for simple jobs, Options for good/better/best upsells, and Package bundles. Draft mode autosaves continuously, so a dead battery does not cost you the quote.
Satellite measurement inside the estimate builder: square footage, roof segments with colour-coded pitch, driveways, lawns, decks and fences. Screenshots attach to the estimate as visual proof, and historical aerial imagery lets you scroll back through years of photos of the property.
Photo-to-quote. Point the Android camera at the property, answer a few targeted follow-ups, and get market-accurate line-item pricing for your area. Used once per new estimate.
55 integrated tools across 13 categories, driven by voice or text. “Move all of today’s jobs to Friday and text every customer” is a single command. Surfaced in the app as “Ask AI” — same feature, different label.
In-app capture or camera-roll upload, organised by job and date, with annotations, custom inspection forms, job reports and unlimited 4K photo and video cloud storage.
A dedicated business phone number with two-way calling and texting from phone, tablet or desktop. Every call and text saves to the customer profile. Call routing sends incoming calls by time of day, caller or availability.
A branded self-service portal on a per-customer secure link. No app download for the homeowner. They approve estimates, pay invoices, view appointments and inspections, and request service.
Customer self-quoting from your website plus 24/7 self-booking against your real calendar availability. Both feed straight into the Android app.
Sequences the day’s stops for minimum drive time and recalculates on late additions; Route Density shows where work clusters so you plan the zone first. Cuts drive time 15–30%.
GPS crew map while clocked in, Time Tracker Pro for GPS clock in/out, and Team Communication for 1-on-1 and group chats with job assignment.
Total price minus labour minus expenses equals profit, with a margin bar on every job. Labour pulls automatically from clocked hours; expenses link from Expense Tracking.
An AI phone team that answers inbound calls 24/7, qualifies leads, filters spam, records and transcribes every call, and sends you a summary. Metered at 125 IQ Credits per minute, so lower tiers have fewer available minutes.
The Virtual Call Team answers, qualifies, records and transcribes — it does not book the appointment for you. Booking is what InstaSchedule is for. Because minutes draw against your credit allocation, lower tiers simply have fewer of them available — any vendor promising a limitless AI phone line on an entry plan is describing something no metered system can deliver.
Two features currently have an unresolved gap between what the plan pages list and what the shipped code enforces, so this guide describes the capability and omits the plan gate. Review Multiplier ships two mechanics: an instant post-payment redirect to your review page, and a full email and SMS review-request automation with four event triggers. Destinations include Google Business Profile, Facebook, Yelp and Angi. AI CoPilot is an in-document editor that lives inside estimate and invoice creation — it adds services, sets discounts, changes tax, drafts client messages and adds deposits through quick-action cards or free-form chat, in either Auto Accept or Review mode. Both work on Android. Neither gets a tier claim here until product settles it.
One more clarification worth making, because competing pages get it wrong: QuoteIQ does not ship a standalone module for sending techs to jobs. That work is handled directly — assign a person to a job on Pro, assign a whole crew on Max via Crews, watch the live map in EmployeeHub, and sequence the day with Route Optimization. The job gets to the right person; there is simply no separate screen bearing that name.
Three tools, three jobs, and blurring them is the most common mistake in write-ups about this platform. AI Autopilot is the general manager: conversational control of the entire CRM. AI Estimator is the photo-to-quote specialist used once per new estimate. AI CoPilot is the in-document editor. Around them sit the smaller tools — AI Text Generator for one-tap professional messages inside ClientHub and text fields, Before & After AI for a realistic “after” preview generated from the actual photo in about 15 to 20 seconds, AI Smart Import for CSV column mapping, and AI Auto-Reply. All of them draw on IQ Credits, and every AI action shows its credit cost before it runs and asks you to confirm. The full bundle is described on the AI Assistant Package page.
Five plans, one price per plan, no per-seat charge inside the seat count. Annual billing multiplies the monthly rate by ten, which means two months free. Every plan includes a 14-day free trial with full access to the features of the plan you choose. The table below is the whole ladder — this is the same pricing shown on the pricing page.
| Plan | Monthly | Annual | Users | IQ Credits / mo | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Essentials | $29.99 | $299.99 | 1 | 500 | Solo operator running the whole business from one Android phone |
| Beginner | $74.99 | $749.99 | 2 | 1,500 | Owner plus one helper who need measurement and photo documentation |
| Pro | $149.99 | $1,499.99 | 4 | 3,000 | A small crew that needs texting, automations and job costing |
| Elite | $299 | $2,990 | 10 | 5,000 | Multi-truck operation running routes, self-booking and inventory |
| Max | $699 | $6,990 | Unlimited | 8,000 | Crew-based companies, multiple businesses, sales teams |
Essentials at $29.99 is not a stripped demo. It carries all four estimate types, invoicing with recurring subscriptions, a price book, e-signatures, scheduling, the customer database, tips on invoices, business calculators, data export, and the AI suite on 500 IQ Credits.
Beginner at $74.99 adds the measurement layer — MapMeasure Pro, Property Street View, Zillow Quick Access — plus QuoteIQ Cam, expense tracking, contract attachments, mass invoicing, advanced analytics and custom branding.
Pro at $149.99 is where the communication layer lands: ClientHub, email and text automations, on-the-way texts, website contact forms, the Client Portal, Job Costing, the hourly rate calculator and QuickBooks Online sync — the online edition only.
Elite at $299 covers ten users and unlocks InstaQuote, InstaSchedule, Pipelines & Deals (up to five pipelines), mass text and email campaigns, inventory management, Route Optimization, Route Density and EmployeeHub.
Max at $699 removes the seat cap entirely and adds the Sales Team Tracker, crew creation, tracking and scheduling, unlimited pipelines, the AI website builder included rather than as an add-on, four additional businesses, and priority support. Multiple companies under one Max plan share a single pool of IQ Credits.
IQ Credits are the virtual currency for AI features, included monthly on every plan and reset each billing cycle. A proposal send costs 100 credits and is free on trial, Elite and Max. Virtual Call Team runs 125 credits per minute. AI AutoMeasure costs 100 credits and a property lookup 50. Credits have no cash value, are non-transferable and non-refundable, and expire on cancellation — they are a metering unit, not money.
Two things sit outside the plan price. The AI website builder is $34.99/month on every plan except Max, where it is included — it builds and hosts a contractor site without a separate web developer. Additional businesses are a paid add-on, with four included on Max via Multi-Business. Done-For-You setup, which covers contact import, price book configuration and a one-on-one onboarding session, comes in two tiers at $299.99 and $999.99. IQ Credit top-up packs are available if a heavy AI month runs you short. Nothing else is metered, and the core CRM never requires a credit purchase to function.
Software cost only means something next to revenue per job. Before you commit, price a few representative jobs the way you actually sell them and see what a month of software works out to as a percentage of a single ticket. The free tools are the fastest way to do that: run a driveway through the pressure washing cost calculator, a season through the lawn care cost calculator, a system swap through the HVAC cost calculator, an interior repaint through the painting cost calculator, or a removal through the tree removal cost calculator. For most contractors running more than a handful of jobs a month, the entry plan costs less than a single service call. The Small Business Administration’s guidance on managing a business is a reasonable framework for the wider bookkeeping question.
Feature lists are easy to fake. What separates the best CRM for Android from the rest is whether a single person with a single device can carry a job from first ring to deposited payment without touching another machine. Here is that cycle, in order, with the screens involved.
An inbound call comes in on the business number. If you cannot pick up, the Virtual Call Team answers, qualifies the caller against your knowledge base, filters the spam, records and transcribes the call, and pushes you a summary notification. If the lead came from a form on your site instead, website contact forms drop it straight into the client database with the source attached. Leads that arrive through Google Reserve land the same way.
Open a new estimate, pull the address, and let MapMeasure Pro do the measuring from satellite imagery. Roof segments are auto-detected with colour-coded pitch. Driveway, lawn, deck and fence areas come off drawing tools you use with your thumb. If the property has changed since the last imagery pass, scroll the historical aerial timeline. Property Street View and Zillow Quick Access fill in the context. If you would rather shoot it than measure it, AI Estimator takes photos and returns line-item pricing.
Build the quote from your price book. Use Options if you want the customer choosing between good, better and best rather than yes or no — it is the single highest-leverage change most contractors can make to average ticket. Add markup, a discount, tax, a required deposit, photos and terms. Hide individual line prices if you sell on total. The draft autosaves continuously.
Send by SMS, email, PDF or link. The customer opens it on their own phone and signs with E-Signatures. If a contract PDF has to ride along, attach it. If you edit the estimate after sending, the outstanding signature request voids automatically so nobody signs a superseded number. Expiration dates stop last spring’s quote coming back to haunt this spring’s material costs.
Approved estimates drop into scheduling. Drag across day, week, month or employee-timeline views. Multi-day jobs render as continuous events. Schedule Later creates the job with no date if you are waiting on materials. On Elite and above, customers book themselves through InstaSchedule against your real availability — which removes the phone tag entirely. Google Calendar sync keeps the rest of your life visible in the same place. Reminders and tasks handle the follow-ups.
QuoteIQ Cam captures before and after shots organised by job and date, with annotations and unlimited 4K storage. Run a custom inspection form and export a branded PDF. The before & after photo editor produces the comparison image, and a shareable gallery lets the customer see the work without you emailing twelve attachments. This is also your damage record — the reason a lot of contractors first install the app is a dispute they could not prove.
Convert the job to an invoice in one tap. Customers pay by credit or debit card, ACH bank transfer, Apple Pay or Google Pay online, and cash or cheque gets recorded manually in the app. Checkout is embedded on the page rather than bouncing to a redirect. Partial payments, deposits and Net 15/30/60/90 terms are all supported, and tips can be enabled at online checkout. For maintenance accounts, an accepted estimate converts straight into a recurring invoice subscription. If the ticket is large, consumer financing through Affirm, Klarna and Afterpay is available on every plan; the customer applies at checkout in about thirty seconds, you get paid in full upfront, and the provider owns collections.
Review Multiplier can redirect the customer to your review page the instant payment clears, or run an email and SMS review request off an event trigger. Both mechanics ship. Destinations include Google Business Profile, Facebook, Yelp and Angi.
Job Costing shows price minus labour minus expenses with a margin bar. Labour pulls from clocked hours automatically. Business analytics rolls it into revenue by service, customer and crew, conversion rate, average ticket, completion rate and repeat rate on a customisable dashboard. Ask AI Reports lets you interrogate the numbers conversationally instead of hunting through a menu.
Nine steps, one device, zero desktop sessions. The whole cycle above runs on an Android phone with the same feature set the web dashboard has — see Mobile & Web Access. That parity is the actual product claim, and it is the one worth testing during your 14-day trial.
A word on numbers before the table. Competitor pricing in this market moves constantly — plan ladders get re-cut, add-ons get folded in, seat rules change. Rather than print figures that will be stale by the time you read this, we do not quote competitor prices, seat counts, trial lengths or feature-absence claims on this page. Check each vendor’s own pricing page on the day you are deciding. That is the only number that is ever correct.
The vendors most often shortlisted against QuoteIQ by Android-first contractors are Jobber, Housecall Pro, ServiceTitan, FieldPulse and Workiz. Side-by-side breakdowns live on the comparison hub. What follows is a structural comparison — the questions to ask, not a price war.
| What to check | QuoteIQ | What to verify elsewhere |
|---|---|---|
| Android feature parity | Full parity across iOS, Android and web — no reduced mobile tier | Open the vendor’s estimate builder on an Android phone and count the fields against the web version |
| Seat pricing | Priced by plan tier; Max carries unlimited users at a flat rate | Ask what a seat costs once you exceed the included count, and whether field-only users are billed |
| Satellite measurement | MapMeasure Pro inside the estimate builder from Beginner up | Whether measurement is native, an add-on SKU, or a third-party integration you pay separately |
| Photo documentation | QuoteIQ Cam with unlimited 4K storage from Beginner up | Storage caps, per-photo limits, and whether documentation is a separate subscription |
| Business phone number | ClientHub dedicated line with two-way calls and texts from Pro up | Whether texting requires you to bring your own gateway, and what the per-message cost is |
| Mass campaigns | Elite and above; you connect your own Twilio and SendGrid accounts | Every vendor handles this differently — confirm who pays the carrier fees |
| Crew GPS and time tracking | EmployeeHub with GPS clock in/out from Elite up; clocked-out staff are never mapped | Privacy behaviour when off the clock, and whether time data exports to payroll |
| Accounting sync | QuickBooks Online from Pro up; Desktop is not supported | Which accounting products are genuinely supported versus listed on a roadmap |
| AI depth | AI on every plan; Autopilot runs 55 tools across 13 categories, metered in IQ Credits | Whether AI is a paid tier, what the metering unit is, and whether costs are shown before an action runs |
| Data ownership | You own your data; export is available on every plan | Export format, whether export is gated to higher tiers, and what happens on cancellation |
No competitor dollar amounts, seat counts or trial lengths appear on this page by design. Pricing in field service software changed materially during 2026 and any figure we published would risk being wrong within weeks. Read each vendor’s own pricing page the day you decide, and treat third-party aggregator numbers as unverified.
First: what does month thirteen cost? Introductory pricing and annual lock-ins hide the real number. Ask for the renewal rate in writing. Second: what is the cost of one more person? A crew that grows from three to six should not double your software bill; if it does, you are buying a seat licence, not a platform. Third: what happens to the data if you leave? A CRM you cannot walk away from is leverage against you, not a tool. QuoteIQ answers those with published plan pricing, tier-based seat allowances up to unlimited users on Max, and data export on every plan.
One more thing worth testing during a trial: run the same job through both platforms on the same Android device, timed. Not a demo — a real quote for a real address, from opening the app to the customer receiving it. The gap between platforms on that single task, multiplied by the number of quotes you send in a year, is usually a bigger number than the price difference.
The gap between finishing a job and having the money in the bank is where most small service businesses lose their margin. Every day an invoice sits unpaid is a day you financed the customer for free. An Android CRM earns its keep in that gap.
Customers settle invoices by credit or debit card, ACH bank transfer, Apple Pay or Google Pay online, plus cash and cheque recorded manually in the app. Checkout is embedded rather than redirected, cards on file appear on the customer profile, and the ACH toggle lives in Bank Details settings. Payment reminders run automatically on timing you set. Full detail sits on the Online Payments page.
Behind the scenes, the processor depends on when your account was created. New subscribers run on Whop end to end. Accounts established earlier on Stripe may stay there or migrate to Whop, and that migration only runs one direction. This is not a menu choice at signup — account vintage decides it. Processing fees vary by method, configuration, risk profile, industry and volume, so we publish no rate figures; ask for yours in writing during onboarding.
Consumer financing is live on every plan, including during the trial, and is independent of which processor your account uses. Affirm handles up to $30,000 per job over 3 to 36 months in the US and Canada. Klarna offers Pay-in-4, Pay-in-30 and longer terms. Afterpay runs Pay-in-4 to roughly $4,000. The customer applies at checkout, gets an instant decision, and you are paid in full upfront — the provider carries collections and default risk. For roofing, HVAC system replacements and remodeling work, financing at the point of sale changes close rates more than any discount you could offer.
Job Costing tells you what happened. Calculators tell you what should happen. The business calculator suite covers pricing scenarios across the major trades, and the hourly rate calculator on Pro and above gives you the loaded number you should actually be billing rather than the one you guessed at when you started. Trade-specific tools worth bookmarking include the concrete cost calculator, the fence cost calculator, the deck cost calculator, the flooring cost calculator, the drywall cost calculator, the insulation cost calculator, the epoxy flooring cost calculator and the gutter cleaning cost calculator.
Driving is a real line item. The IRS set the 2026 business standard mileage rate at 72.5 cents per mile from January, then raised it mid-year to 76 cents per mile from July 1, 2026. Route Optimization cutting drive time 15–30% is not just a scheduling nicety — at those rates it is a deductible-expense line and a fuel line you can measure.
Expense Tracking from Beginner up categorises spend, stores receipt photos, links costs to specific jobs and exports to CSV, with search and filtering on top. Expenses Analytics rolls it into trend views. Photograph the receipt at the counter on your Android phone and it is filed against the job before you have started the truck. That single habit is the difference between a clean year-end and a weekend rebuilding records from bank statements.
For anything that leaves QuoteIQ, QuickBooks Online syncs invoices, payments, customers and expense categories from Pro up, with duplicate-sync locks and automatic customer creation before an estimate syncs. The integration covers the online edition only; the locally installed edition has never been supported, regardless of what older comparison articles claim.
Demand is not the constraint for most contractors right now — capacity and collection are. The U.S. Census Bureau’s Value of Construction Put in Place survey put total construction spending at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of about $2.16 trillion in July 2026. Against that backdrop, the businesses that win are not the ones chasing more leads; they are the ones converting the leads they already have faster and getting paid on the same visit. That is an operations problem, and it is solved on the device in your hand.
If you are still deciding, start with the paperwork. Free templates are available for contractors, HVAC, electrical, painting, landscaping, handyman, house cleaning and construction work, plus price list templates for car detailing, boat detailing, fleet washing and bin cleaning.
One truck is a scheduling problem. Four trucks is an operations problem. The point where a contractor outgrows a notebook is almost always the point where a second crew starts working somewhere the owner cannot see. Android handsets are what those crews carry, which makes the mobile app the operational surface for the whole company.
EmployeeHub on Elite and above gives you a live map of the team while they are clocked in, with a traffic overlay and clock-in location verification. Location Tracking pauses on breaks and stops at clock-out. That last part is a hard rule in the product: clocked-out employees are never shown on any map, with no exceptions and no admin override. If you are evaluating platforms, ask each vendor that question directly — the answer tells you a lot about how they think about the people using the app.
Time Tracker Pro handles GPS clock in and out, per-job hours, break counts and durations in reports and CSV export, admin-only manual adjustments, and a full edit history so changes are traceable. Two honest limitations: there is no automatic overtime calculation, and there is no native payroll — hours export to whatever payroll system you already run. Roles and permissions control what each person can reach, and restricted users see shortcut cards rather than the full dashboard.
Person-to-job assignment is available from Pro. Crew-level assignment, crew creation and crew scheduling with crew-level analytics and routing sit on Max via Crews. On Elite and above the calendar filters by employee and by crew, and route density filtering shows up in the calendar view. Team Communication carries one-on-one and group chats with job and event assignment attached, so the conversation about a job lives next to the job rather than in a group text nobody can search.
Two distinct tools, frequently confused. Route Density shows you where the work clusters, so you plan a zone rather than criss-crossing a county. Route Optimization sequences the stops within that zone in the order that minimises drive time, respecting appointment windows and job durations, recalculating when a same-day add-on lands, and handing off to GPS navigation. It cuts drive time 15 to 30%. Density is where; Optimization is what order.
Field crews carry compliance obligations that software should support, not obscure. The OSHA small business resources, including the free and confidential On-Site Consultation Program, are the right starting point. Custom inspection forms in QuoteIQ Cam are commonly used to run pre-job safety checks and produce a dated, photographed record.
Inventory Management on Elite and above runs five modules: Products with SKU, category, unit, cost and reorder point; Locations covering warehouse, truck and job site; Suppliers; Orders moving Draft to Confirmed to Received; and Transactions logging every movement as receipt, return, issue, damage, loss or adjustment. Materials on estimates and invoices link to products so pricing stays current.
One mechanic matters and is widely mis-stated: stock deducts when the invoice is paid, not when the job is marked complete. A deposit does not count as paid, so stock does not move on a deposit unless you use the deduct option on that screen. Mark-done deduction was deliberately removed from the shipped app. If a comparison article tells you otherwise, it is describing a build that does not exist.
Pipelines & Deals — labelled “Deals” in the app — gives you a kanban board and list view, stages with close-probability percentages, and weighted forecasting where value equals amount multiplied by probability. Six analytics metrics cover total, weighted, open, closed-won, new and average deal age. Multi-assignee support, PDF and image attachments, internal notes kept separate from customer-visible content, and priority, date-range and owner filters. Elite runs up to five pipelines; Max is unlimited. On Max, the Sales Team Tracker adds commission percentage per rep, conversion and cycle metrics, leaderboards and year-to-date figures.
On Pro and above, email and text automations fire off events with multi-step sequences and personalization tags, sending anywhere from immediately to 24 months out. You can describe an automation in plain language and have it built for you. On Elite and above, mass text and email campaigns target segments via tags — with the important caveat that you connect your own Twilio account for SMS, complete with A2P 10DLC registration, and your own SendGrid account for email. Carrier fees are yours. Nobody offers free unlimited blasting, and consent rules matter: the FCC’s guidance on robocalls and texts is the baseline every contractor sending marketing SMS should read.
The reason a general-purpose CRM struggles in the trades is that the estimate is the product. A plumber quoting a repipe and a lawn crew quoting a season are doing structurally different arithmetic, and a generic deal pipeline serves neither. Below is how the same Android app gets used differently across the trades it was built for. The full list is on the industries hub.
MapMeasure Pro measures the driveway, the house exterior and the flatwork from satellite before you leave the shop, and the downstream injector calculator sits in the business calculators. Before-and-after documentation is the whole marketing engine in this trade, which is what QuoteIQ Cam is for. See the pressure washing software page, the commercial pressure washing variant, the soft washing page, and price a job with the pressure washing cost calculator.
Recurring revenue lives or dies on route density and subscription invoicing. Turf area comes off satellite, the season converts into a recurring invoice subscription, and Route Density keeps the crew inside a postcode. See lawn care software, its FAQ page, landscaping management and irrigation. Tools: the lawn care cost calculator and the artificial turf cost calculator.
Service techs need equipment history on the contact record, maintenance agreements as recurring invoices, financing at the point of sale for system replacements, and photo evidence of what they found. Assignment is by person on Pro and by crew on Max. See HVAC software and its FAQ, plumbing software and its FAQ, electrician software, electrical software, drain cleaning and generator installation. Price with the HVAC cost calculator, the EV charger installation calculator and the air duct cleaning calculator. BLS tracks these trades individually in the Occupational Outlook Handbook if you are benchmarking wages.
Roof segments auto-detect from solar data with colour-coded pitch, pitch is calculated and saved, and the historical imagery timeline lets you show a homeowner what the roof looked like before the storm. See roofing software, its FAQ, metal roofing, roof washing, siding installation, gutter installation and gutter guard installation.
Room-by-room line items, good/better/best options for finish grades, and paint calculators in the app. See painting software and its FAQ, plus the painting cost calculator.
High job volume, tight margins and heavy recurring billing — the trades where automations pay for themselves fastest. See house cleaning, commercial cleaning, carpet cleaning, air duct cleaning, gutter cleaning, trash bin cleaning and window cleaning with its FAQ. Calculators: house cleaning and carpet cleaning.
Route-dense recurring trades with seasonal spikes. See tree care software and its FAQ, stump grinding, pest control, pool service with its FAQ, and pool cleaning. Price with the tree removal calculator and the pest control calculator.
Square-footage-driven quoting where satellite measurement removes most of the site visit. See concrete contractor software and its FAQ, asphalt paving, asphalt sealing, sealcoating, line striping, excavation and masonry. Calculators: concrete, demolition and land clearing.
Longer sales cycles, which is where Deals and multi-step follow-up automations matter most. See remodeling, kitchen remodeling, bathroom remodeling, handyman, general contractor, construction contractor, deck building, flooring installation, drywall, countertops and tile and grout.
Emergency-driven work where response time and photographic evidence decide whether you get paid. See fire and water restoration, mold remediation, foundation repair, basement waterproofing, French drain installation and hoarding cleanup. Calculators: mold remediation, foundation repair, basement waterproofing and French drain.
See holiday lighting, Christmas lighting, snow removal, chimney sweep, mobile detailing, fleet washing, appliance repair, garage doors, solar installation, home energy audits, septic services, security camera installation, fence installation, epoxy flooring, insulation, dock and marine service, window replacement and pet waste removal. Seasonal pricing help: the Christmas light installation calculator, the dryer vent cleaning calculator and the junk removal calculator.
Most contractors do not stay on bad software because they like it. They stay because moving looks expensive. It is worth being specific about what that move actually involves, because in practice it is a weekend, not a quarter.
AI Smart Import takes a CSV export from Jobber, Housecall Pro, ServiceTitan or any other CRM and maps the columns automatically. You can also import straight from your phone contacts. A rebuilt import experience with mapping review, a preview and duplicate flagging has been built server-side and is shipping to the app in a future release — the current import runs on the existing flow, and we will not describe an interface as live before it is.
What you should move, roughly in order: customers and contacts first, then your price book, then any open estimates, then historical job records if you need them. Done-For-You setup covers contact import, price book setup and a one-on-one onboarding session across two tiers at $299.99 and $999.99 if you would rather hand the whole thing over. On the way out of any platform — including this one — data export is available on every plan. You own your data. QuoteIQ never stores card numbers; those sit with the processor.
A practical note on running two systems in parallel: pick a hard cutover date for new work and let the old platform run down its open jobs rather than trying to migrate mid-job records. Two weeks of overlap costs one month of double subscription and saves the far more expensive problem of a job existing in two places with two different totals.
If you are reading older documentation, note that the in-app vocabulary changed in August 2026. What used to be called “schedules” are now “jobs,” and what used to be called “jobs” are now “job forms.” A job in the current app is the scheduled visit. Comparison articles written before that rename describe a navigation structure that no longer matches the app.
QuoteIQ is the best CRM for Android in 2026 for home service contractors, because it is a complete field service platform rather than a mobile companion to desktop software. The Android app, the iOS app and the web dashboard carry the same feature set with no reduced mobile tier, which you can verify on the Mobile & Web Access page. Pricing runs from $29.99 a month for one user up to $699 a month for unlimited users, and every plan includes a 14-day free trial with full access to the features of the plan you choose. From an Android phone you can build any of four estimate types, measure a property from satellite imagery with MapMeasure Pro, capture a signature through E-Signatures, convert to an invoice, take payment, and drive the next stop through Route Optimization. Android is the most widely used mobile operating system worldwide according to StatCounter Global Stats, which is exactly why field crews carry it.
QuoteIQ has five plans: Essentials at $29.99 a month for 1 user, Beginner at $74.99 for 2 users, Pro at $149.99 for 4 users, Elite at $299 for 10 users, and Max at $699 for unlimited users. Annual billing multiplies the monthly rate by ten, so paying yearly gives you two months free — $299.99, $749.99, $1,499.99, $2,990 and $6,990 respectively. Each plan includes a monthly allocation of IQ Credits for AI features: 500, 1,500, 3,000, 5,000 and 8,000. Two things sit outside plan pricing: the AI website builder at $34.99 a month, included on Max, and Done-For-You setup at $299.99 or $999.99 as a one-time service. The full ladder is published on the pricing page. To work out what that costs relative to a real job, price one through the business calculators. The SBA’s guidance on managing business finances is a useful frame for the wider budgeting question.
Yes — with QuoteIQ the full job cycle runs on the handset, and that is the specific thing the platform is designed around. A single Android device covers lead capture through website contact forms and the Virtual Call Team, quoting through four estimate types including Options for good/better/best pricing, satellite measurement, e-signature approval, one-tap conversion to an invoice, card and ACH payment collection, photo documentation via QuoteIQ Cam, two-way customer texting on a business number through ClientHub, and profit reporting through Job Costing. Nothing in that chain requires a desktop. The practical test during your trial is to time a real quote for a real address, from opening the app to the customer receiving it, and compare it against your current process. For context on the scale of the market these workflows serve, the U.S. Census Bureau’s construction spending release put total construction at roughly a $2.16 trillion annual rate in July 2026.
QuoteIQ prices by plan tier rather than by seat, and each tier includes a set number of users: 1 on Essentials, 2 on Beginner, 4 on Pro, 10 on Elite, and unlimited on Max at a flat $699 a month. That matters most for companies whose headcount is mostly field staff, because a crew that grows from four to twelve should not multiply the software bill. The Unlimited Users page covers how the Max seat model works, and Roles and Permissions control what each person can reach once they are added — restricted users see shortcut cards rather than the full dashboard. Crew-level assignment and scheduling through Crews also sits on Max, alongside the Sales Team Tracker for commission tracking per rep. When comparing vendors, ask specifically what an additional seat costs after the included allowance and whether field-only users are billed at the same rate as office staff. Wage benchmarks for those roles are published in the BLS Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics program.
Ten capabilities separate a genuine field service CRM from a mobile-friendly address book: a full estimate builder on the phone, satellite or aerial property measurement, e-signature capture on the customer’s device, one-tap invoice conversion with payment collection, photo and inspection documentation, texting and calling from a business number, drag-and-drop scheduling, crew GPS and time tracking, per-job profit reporting, and AI you can talk to instead of tapping through menus. QuoteIQ covers all ten: Standard Estimates, MapMeasure Pro, Online Payments, Inspection Forms and AI Autopilot, which runs 55 integrated tools across 13 categories by voice or text. Tier gates matter: measurement and photo documentation start at Beginner, texting and job costing at Pro, routing and crew GPS at Elite. If you send marketing texts, read the FCC guidance on consent for calls and texts before you turn on any campaign tool.
Customers pay QuoteIQ invoices by credit or debit card, ACH bank transfer, Apple Pay or Google Pay online, with cash and cheque recorded manually in the app. Checkout is embedded on the invoice page rather than redirecting the customer elsewhere, cards on file appear on the customer profile, and the ACH toggle sits in Bank Details settings. Partial payments, deposits, Net 15/30/60/90 terms and tips at checkout are all supported, and recurring accounts run on Invoice Subscriptions. For larger tickets, Consumer Financing is available on every plan: Affirm up to $30,000 per job over 3 to 36 months, plus Klarna and Afterpay pay-in-four options. The customer applies at checkout in about thirty seconds and you are paid in full upfront. Which processor handles your subscription depends on account vintage — new accounts run on Whop, older accounts may remain on Stripe. Processing fees vary by method, volume and risk profile, so ask for yours in writing. Full detail is on the Invoicing page, and accounting flows through QuickBooks Online. Vehicle costs on the way to collect are deductible at the IRS rate of 76 cents per mile from July 1, 2026.
Yes. Every QuoteIQ plan includes a 14-day free trial with full access to the features of the plan you choose — not a generic feature set, and not a stripped demo. A credit or debit card is required to start. You get one free trial per person, per business and per payment method, and the trial auto-converts to paid at your selected plan’s rate unless you cancel before it expires; you can cancel at any point during the trial. Pick the tier that matches what you actually need before you start, because the trial mirrors that plan: Essentials if you are solo, Beginner if you need MapMeasure Pro and photo documentation, Pro if you need texting and job costing, Elite if you need routing and crew GPS. Proposal sends are free on trial. Start at the pricing page or register directly. If you want the tour first, book a live demo. General small-business planning resources are available from the U.S. Small Business Administration.
QuoteIQ serves more than 50 home service trades, with over 40,000 contractors on the platform and an average rating of 4.7 across 4,103 reviews. The heaviest concentrations are in exterior cleaning, lawn and landscape, and the mechanical trades — pressure washing, lawn care, HVAC, plumbing and electrical — but the same Android app runs roofing, painting, window cleaning, tree care, pest control, pool service, concrete, snow removal, holiday lighting, handyman and remodeling businesses. Each trade uses a different part of the stack: measurement-heavy trades lean on satellite quoting, recurring trades lean on subscriptions and route density, and emergency trades lean on photo documentation. The full list is on the industries hub. For employment and wage context across these occupations, the BLS Occupational Outlook Handbook projects faster-than-average growth through 2035 with roughly 587,000 annual openings.

The app works great. The interface is easy to use and for my new pressure washing business it’s great to have a simple platform to operate from so that I can focus on what I do best which is pleasing my customers.
Michael Posey Google Play · May 2024Excellent app I highly recommend using this app to help with your business. I’ve used it for 2 years now and it’s helped me and my business grow to levels I couldn’t have imagined.
Brent Brignac Google Play · July 2024Just had a scheduled video conference to learn more about the app, and this is before I’m even a paying subscriber. The help desk individual was very professional, friendly, and knowledgeable about the app, and I am so excited about using it for (most, if not, almost all!) of my small business finances! Very glad I heard about QuoteIQ!
