UPDATING ON iOS DEVICES If your technicians use iOS devices, the technicians will sometimes be notified about MobileTech app updates for their devices. Do not install the client updates on those devices unless you will also be updating the MobileTech Server to the compatible versions that are listed in the Readme. We recommend that you clearly communicate this information to your technicians. We also recommend that you turn off automatic downloads of updates on iOS devices. To do this, go to Settings > iTunes & App Store. In the Automatic Downloads section, make sure the Updates option is turned off (the toggle switch should appear gray, not green). Repeat this task on each iOS device. You can view which version of MobileTech is installed on each device. For more information, see View user device information and sync activity. |
