Approving a step, checking a run and pausing a workflow all work from a phone. Building one does not β€” the canvas needs a desktop.

Approving a step from your phone

This is the job a phone is actually for. Somebody’s workflow is paused waiting on a decision, and you are not at your desk.

The email arrives

A Human Review step emails you the subject and message its author wrote, whatever context they attached, and one button per decision β€” usually Approve and Reject.

Tap your decision

Each button belongs to that one run. Where the author built a form, the button opens the review page with the form on it and your answers are submitted with the decision.

The run continues

The workflow resumes down the branch you chose, immediately. The other buttons stop working, so a second person tapping later cannot change the answer.

Sign in as a member of the workflow’s workspace before you answer. The email takes you straight to the review, so you do not need to find the workflow first.

Need a response from somebody outside the workspace? A Wait form gives them a public link and resumes the run when they submit it.

What else works on a small screen

Open app.getglow.ai in a phone browser β€” there is no app to install β€” and the layout switches to one built for it.

  • Your dashboard, with the state of every workflow and its recent runs.
  • Pausing a workflow, or setting it live, when something needs stopping now.
  • Reading a canvas, which is enough to work out what a run did.

Building and editing a workflow is desktop work: the canvas needs the room.
