ProNear · full help guide
English · தமிழ் · हिन्दी · ಕನ್ನಡ — same ideas as in-app Help. Last updated: 22 August 2026 (email-only login · Terms after signup · Block clarified).
English overview
Sign in with email → choose Customer or Service person at Create account → accept Terms → complete profile → use Home actions → pay safely → chat → rate.
Everyone
- Sign in with email and password. Mobile SMS login is temporarily unavailable; it will return after SMS setup is ready.
- At Create account: choose Customer or Service person, then accept Terms on the next page. That role is locked — login or reinstall does not ask again. Need the other role? Create a separate account with a different email.
- Email signup: open the verification link before using the app. Check Spam / Promotions if needed, then mark Not spam.
- App language: English / Tamil / Hindi / Kannada under Profile (buttons and forms). Free-text (title, chat) stays as you type.
- Customers: name, phone, address (photo optional — no KYC). Exact address is shared only with the booked provider. Prefer ID verified + ratings; match photo; start code / Share / SOS / Report / Block. ProNear does not guarantee safety.
- Service persons: live blink selfie (no gallery), phone, address, skills, UPI, GPS — bidding after registration; Premium after ProNear ID verified (not government clearance). Be professional; ask for start code; Report abuse.
- Pay the service person cash or UPI on site. ProNear does not hold job labor money.
- Allow notifications: new matching jobs (service persons), new offers (customers), and job chat messages.
- Use job Chat while the job is active; chat closes after Task completed; App feedback for product ideas; About for company info; Edit profile to delete account.
- Report sends a safety report to ProNear. Block hides that person’s offers from you and stops them bidding on your future requests (does not cancel an already booked job; not a public ban). Unblock anytime: Profile → Blocked service persons.
Customer flow
- Complete profile → Post a service request (profile address by default; GPS optional). Bidders see area only.
- Open My requests & offers → compare bids by price / rating. Optional notes from service persons appear under the price. Report or Block unwanted offers (Block = hide for you only).
- Posted by mistake? Tap Delete on an open request — providers will no longer see it.
- Accept an offer → pick an available time slot (exact address is then shared with that provider).
- Open My jobs — service person’s photo and name, when they come, pay amount, UPI, start code, and slot countdown while the booking is active.
- Share the start code only when they arrive; match the photo at the door. Use Share job / SOS if needed.
- Pay cash/UPI using the provider’s UPI ID shown on the job.
- When work is done → you tap Task completed → Rate service person.
- While booked, that request opens My jobs (compare is closed). If you cancel the booking in time, the request reopens so you can accept another offer — only that person’s booking ends.
- Lists show Active work plus completed History for the last 6 months. Deleted requests and cancelled bookings are removed from History.
Fair cancel policy (customers)
ProNear does not hold job money and does not ask for cancel UPI fees when nobody visited.
| When you cancel | What happens |
|---|---|
| Within 1 hour of booking (grace) | Free cancel — booking ends; other offers reopen for Compare |
| 4+ hours before the slot | Free cancel — same reopen behaviour |
| Under 4 hours before the slot | Cancel closed — message in chat; no-shows can be reported |
| Work already started | Cancel blocked — pay booked amount on site |
| Service person cancels | You owe ₹0; request can reopen for other offers |
| Delete open request (before booking) | Request removed from Browse and from your History |
Service person flow
- Complete registration + UPI → allow notifications → Browse open jobs (area label; exact address after acceptance).
- You get a push when a customer posts a request in your skill categories.
- Place a sealed bid (price + optional message). Your price is private to the customer; they see your note on Compare.
- When accepted → My jobs shows the booking. Arrive, ask for the start code, then Start job.
- Ask the customer to mark Task completed after paying on site (only customers can complete). Your completed-jobs count updates after completion.
- If you must cancel before work starts, the customer owes nothing. Cancelled bookings are removed from your My Jobs History (same as for customers).
- After a 60-day free trial, renew Premium via Google Play (₹149 / 3 months · ₹249 / 6 months · ₹399 / year) — only after KYC is verified.
- Share your referral code so other service persons get +30 Premium days when they subscribe (your reward arrives after a short anti-fraud hold).
- Payment receipt comes from Google Play (check the Google account email used for the purchase).
- New phone: Sign in with the same ProNear account. Premium follows your login — Restore purchases if needed.
