Salesforce1 Mobile App Admin Guide
jSalesforce1 Mobile App Features: What’s Available in Each Version
Salesforce1 is available as a
downloadable app on iOS and Android devices and as a mobile browser app in supported
mobile browsers. In most cases, all of the Salesforce1 “flavors” include the
same features. But there are some differences between the experiences, often related to
differences in the mobile platforms on which Salesforce1 is
supported.
