Mobile Access

As the primary points of Internet access shift from desktops and laptops to smartphones and tablets, apps that don't provide mobile access to critical data will quickly become obsolete. Don't let your app get trampled by the mobile stampede! Instead, use the Salesforce app to deliver your Lightning Platform customizations to your mobile users.

Downloadable versions of the Salesforce app can be installed on mobile devices and use the native functionality of the device. When users log in on a mobile device, they can access and update their data via an interface specially designed for mobile device screens. It allows you to work with most standard Sales objects, some standard Service objects, and all custom objects.

Salesforce
Administrators don’t have to create special configurations for mobile users to access their organization’s data. What users see is controlled by their profile and user permissions, and the app respects any customizations made in the full Salesforce site. In addition, this app includes Chatter, so your users can keep collaborating while on the go.
Salesforce is supported on Apple® iPhones® and iPads®, as well as Android™ phones. If your organization prohibits installing the downloadable app to corporate-issued devices, Salesforce is also available from a mobile web browser.

When you're ready to take your app mobile, see the Salesforce App Admin Guide.
