The problem

Staff should not have to run back to the till for every update.

During service, staff are moving: greeting tables, checking food, taking payment, helping the kitchen, handling pickup orders and closing shifts. If every action depends on a fixed terminal, the floor slows down. The Staff Mobile App brings key service workflows to the device in the server's hand.

Before
  • Staff walk back to POS for every table check
  • Kitchen status is asked verbally
  • Payment status is unclear away from the till
  • Shift actions depend on a fixed terminal
  • QR table codes require admin help
  • Errors appear as confusing technical messages
With Cibus Staff
  • Table status on mobile
  • Active order visibility
  • Shift open and close from the phone
  • Cash float entry on the device
  • Payment workflow support and status
  • QR table-code support where enabled
  • Clear retry and reconnect states
Native mobile

Built for the floor, not squeezed into a browser.

The Staff Mobile App is native iOS and Android via React Native and Expo. It is designed for tap-first service: clear status, large touch targets and glance-friendly screens.

Terminal pairing

Bind a device to its terminal context.

When staff sign in, the app can bind to the relevant restaurant terminal context. That helps multi-terminal restaurants know which phone or tablet is acting for which station, section or counter workflow.

Tables

A tap-friendly view of the floor.

Staff can see table status from mobile, open the right table context and understand whether a table is empty, ordering, in kitchen, pending payment or ready to close.

Active orders

Know what is ready, pending and paid.

The active orders feed gives staff a live service view from their mobile device. Servers can filter by status and understand what needs attention without interrupting the kitchen or returning to POS.

Shift and cash float

Open and close shifts from mobile.

Staff can open a shift from their phone, record cash float details, work with that shift context and close the shift with reconciliation and manager review where needed.

Payment workflow

Payment awareness at the table.

The Staff Mobile App supports mobile payment workflows and payment awareness from the floor. Staff can see payment status, record supported payment actions and hand off to POS or Stripe Terminal where appropriate.

QR table-code support

Recover table QR codes without calling admin.

Where enabled, staff can generate, show or print a fresh table QR code from mobile. This helps recover lost or damaged table codes during service without waiting for a manager to open the admin dashboard. Treat QR table-code support as in-development where the current implementation still requires it.

Offline-aware

Clear reconnect states, not false confidence.

Restaurants need honest software under pressure. If the network drops, staff should see clear reconnect messaging and safe retry states rather than hidden failures or deceptive offline queues.

On the floor

Not a run back to the till. The service in your staff's pocket.

Tables, orders, tasks, cash and payments on the same live record as POS and KDS — wherever the server is standing.

In service

A server during dinner service.

A server signs in, pairs the device to the correct terminal context, checks the table grid, sees which orders are ready, helps a table with a QR code, checks payment status and closes out shift tasks later without losing connection to POS, KDS and Admin.
