# Mobile Tasks

{{snippet.Mobile App}}

{{variable.Marlin bold}}'s integration with the [Marlin mobile app](/gtx/docs/mobile-app) enables technicians to track and update their daily tasks.

The main Marlin mobile window shows a list of **Open Planner Tasks** that have been added to the [GTX Business Planner](/gtx/docs/business-planner-1) for a selected date, which is shown at the top right.

For a **booking** to appear in the mobile app's [Planner Tasks](/gtx/docs/mobile-tasks#planner-task-details) list, it needs to:
* Be added to the [Business Planner](https://help.megabus.com.au/gtx/docs/planner-bookings)
* Have a **registration number** added to it

## Mobile Planner Tasks

By default, the **Open Planner Tasks** list will show a list of planner tasks for the current date.
