How to use the Prospect Tire app
Directions for customers, staff, and admins — from browsing to uploading photos and videos.

Signing in
1
Create an account
Tap Sign in in the top-right, then choose email or Google. New accounts start as customers.

Ask for staff access
Staff, managers, and admins get access from an existing admin. See the admin section below.
For staff
1
Open the Staff console
After signing in with a staff role, click Staff in the top nav. Use the sub-tabs for Inventory, Intake, Deliveries, POS, and more.

Scan a sidewall or QR

Tips

- The floating Ask T button (staff) helps identify tires from a photo.
- Good lighting + a flat sidewall shot = best OCR results.
- Photos are stored securely; only signed URLs are shared with the browser.
