Mobile One is fully native, offering a fast, smooth, and reliable experience directly within the app. In addition to answering questions, One can help you complete everyday tasks such as requesting time off, submitting expenses, booking office spaces, and more — all from a single conversation.
Overview
The native mobile experience brings One directly into the app with improved performance, real-time responses, voice interactions, file attachments, conversation history, and the ability to perform actions on your behalf.
With Mobile One, you can:
- Request vacation or time-off days
- Submit expenses individually or in bulk using photos or scanned receipts
- Book, modify, or cancel desk and meeting room reservations

- Share posts or announcements
- Comment on posts
- Ask questions using text or voice
Before completing any action, One will always show you what it is about to do and ask for your confirmation.

If you can’t find the One icon on your mobile app, ensure that your app is updated to Version 25.12.2 (for Android).
If your file upload failed, verify that the file format is supported, check that your internet connection is stable and try uploading the file again.
If you cannot find a previous conversation, open the conversation history section, use the search bar to locate conversations by keyword and verify that the conversation has not been deleted.
