Mobile

Salesforce Mobile App

  • The clock is ticking ⏰! If you have a version lower than Android 9.0 or iOS 15.0, then it’s time to update your OS 📲, as Salesforce recently changed the prerequisites for utilizing their mobile application on iOS and Android devices.
  • Have you ever imagined what the Salesforce Mobile App on steroids 💉 would look like? The answer is an app with enhanced security 🔐, offline mobile access 🚫🌐, and branding capabilities 🎨! Salesforce Mobile App Plus is GA.
  • Say goodbye 👋 to stressing over no Internet connection while trying to close that opportunity 💰! Mobile Offline Access is GA the week of June 12, 2023.
Gone are the days of trying to get that cell reception in order to update your records
  • Someone who would like to access their Analytics Collections on the go: “If only I could access my Analytics Collections on the go ☹️”.
    Salesforce Mobile Product Team: “
    Say no more!
    Find your curated Collections as cards on the Salesforce Mobile App! GA the week of June 12, 2023.
  • Drumroll, please 🥁🥁, ladies and gentlemen, Dynamic Forms (BETA) just dropped for mobile! Your mobile users have the same customized experience your desktop users have, joining them in the “cool kids 😎” club.
  • Salesforce Mobile App version 228 is retired 🪦. Update the app now to the latest version or stay with no access, like a boomer 👴 who still uses a flip phone.
  • Processing a mountain 🏔 of barcodes? No sweat! With SUMMER ‘23, you can scan multiple barcodes at once — because let’s face it, who has time to scan one at a time?

Mobile Publisher

  • Gone are the days when users had to navigate 🧭 through the App Store and search for your app in order to update it. Your users will now be redirected ⤴️ to your app page after being prompted to update it.
  • Time to get with the times 🕰️ (literally). You can set a minimum version of the app that your users need to be on in order to use it. They will have a grace period of 15 days to update it. If they snooze past the deadline, access will be left in the dust ❌.
POV: Your app when users don’t update it
  • Auf Wiedersehen Mobile Publisher App Update component 👋 ! This package will be deleted from AppExchange. If you use this component, delete it and set the Minimum App Version settings in Experience Builder to urge or force users to upgrade ⏫ their apps.
