IMS4Field Mobile App

Prev Next

IMS4Field runs in your device's web browser, so you do not need to download a dedicated app. To make it behave like a native app, add it to your device's home screen. This article describes how to do that on Apple iOS devices, Android devices, and other devices with a web browser. The recommended system requirements are the same as for opening IMS4Field in your device's web browser. For details, see Accessing IMS4Field. For an introduction to IMS4Field, see IMS4Field Overview.
