Downloading and Using the App

So far, we’ve created a simple WorkMobile form and set up a mobile user.
We’re finally ready to use the App for the first time to capture some data.

Android Device Users

If you’re using an Android phone or tablet then follow these instructions: 

• Go to the Play Store on your device search for WorkMobile App.

• Select the WorkMobile App icon and click Install 
• Open the WorkMobile App and log into your account using the Mobile User credentials that you created in the previous section. 
• Click the key icon to login.
• iOS Device Users

If you’re using an Apple iphone or ipad then follow these instructions:

• Go to the App Store on your device search for WorkMobile App.
• Select the WorkMobile App icon and click Download 
  
• Open the WorkMobile App and log into your account using the Mobile User credentials that you created in the previous section. 
• Click the key icon to login.
  
  

 

 

At this point, the App will begin synchronising its data with the WorkMobile server, however a short while you’ll see a screen similar to this:

 

 

At this point let’s take a moment to familiarise ourselves with the main menu screen

Forms
This is the list of blank forms available for your user

Inbox 

If you’re using WorkMobile to allocate jobs or work to your users, then the inbox contains the list of ‘things’ that they need to do.

Outbox 

The outbox contains completed forms that haven’t yet been sent from the mobile device to the WorkMobile portal.

Drafts 

This contains any partially completed forms that have yet to be completed.

Send/Receive 

Pressing this causes the App to synchronise its data with the WorkMobile portal, i.e. a form that have been completed and are still in the outbox will be sent and any additional forms or jobs that are on the portal will be received.

To fill out the form that we’ve built:

 

• Click Forms 
• This is where you’ll see a list of forms. As we only have the one, click it. 
• Fill in the details on the form 

• Proceed to the next page by selecting the arrow icon  

 

• Open the subform by selecting Add Timesheet Data Timesheet 

 

 

• Fill in the details on the form

 

• Save the form by selecting the tick icon 

 

 

• You will now be returned to the main form where you can fill out the rest of the fields.
• Click the Save icon
• You’ll now be returned to the forms list. To return back to the main menu click the Return icon
• Click the Send/Receive icon to send the data back to the WorkMobile portal
