Installing the Field App
Installing the Field App
The field interface runs as a Progressive Web App (PWA) in your mobile browser — there is no separate app store download for most deployments. "Installing" means Add to Home Screen so it opens like a native app.
iOS (Safari)
- Open your company's field tech URL in Safari.
- Tap the Share button.
- Tap Add to Home Screen and confirm.
Android (Chrome)
- Open the field tech URL in Chrome.
- Tap the menu (⋮) and choose Install app or Add to Home screen (wording varies by version).
Notifications
For schedule change alerts and similar pushes, the browser may ask for notification permission — allow if your office relies on web push. If prompts are unavailable, your plan may omit install/prompt features or the browser may block background notifications.
Tips
- Bookmark or install on each tech device they actually carry in the field.
- Keep OS and browser updated for best PWA support.
