Mobile App: Navigating the Menu
Learn about the main features of the SmartSense mobile app (formerly NEXT) menu and how you can customize your settings.
Accessing the Menu
From the home screen, you can access the MENU by tapping on the icon in the top right corner. The green icon displays your username and the current site directly underneath. If you wish to change to a different site, tap the CHANGE SITE icon.
Note: The last three sites you visited will display at the top of the sites selection screen under RECENT SITES.
Navigating the Menu
PREFERENCES can be accessed by tapping on the second purple icon. In this section, you will find five options:
- TEMPERATURE TAKING – this feature allows you to switch between entering a temperature manually or using the probe
- PROBE STABILIZATION – this feature triggers the mobile app to automatically save a temperature after detecting the SmartSense probe has stabilized the temperature for two seconds
- TEMPERATURE UNIT – this feature allows you to toggle between Metric and Imperial systems
- AUTO SUBMIT – automatically submit answers for a completed task and sync data to the SmartSense web app
- TEXT SIZE – this accessibility feature allows you to control text size in-app to suit your viewing needs
Selecting TEXT SIZE will take you to a new screen where you can modify the font size using a slider. The text size can be increased to a larger text size or reverted back to the default text size. The increased text size will only apply to text in components that are suitable for a larger size.
Example: Increased size for Labels & Descriptions, but text size remains the same for Screen Titles.
Tapping on the SMARTSENSE WEB icon will open the web app in a new browser window. The grey LOG OUT button will display a modal window before logging you out and will confirm you want to log out to prevent you from losing any unsaved data.
The PROBE DIAGNOSTIC icon provides access to a tool that enables users to test the connectivity between the SmartSense mobile app and SmartSense Bluetooth Probe, displaying information about the Probe connected. Here you can view the current reading of the Probe, Firmware version, Model #, Battery Level, LED color (if applicable), and the Service IDs used for Bluetooth pairing and functionality.
The grey buttons behave as follows:
- DISCONNECT: a user can manually connect/disconnect to a Probe
- COLOR DANCE: direct the Probe to display the range of colors it is capable of showing
- SELECT COLOR: modify the LED color of the Probe when connected (if the Probe supports that functionality)
