Support for CRM for phones and CRM for tablets

 

Applies To: Dynamics CRM 2015, Dynamics CRM Online

You can access Microsoft Dynamics CRM data from mobile devices in different ways. You can use the apps for Windows 8, Apple, and Android mobile devices with Microsoft Dynamics CRM Online and Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2015. You can also access  CRM using the device’s preferred browser for those devices described here. Devices not specifically mentioned here can typically use CRM for phones express.

CRM Online 2015 Update 1 introduces a new version of CRM for phones that’s based on and shares many of the features of CRM for tablets. To use this new version of CRM for phones, you must be running CRM Online 2015 Update 1 or later. If you’re not running CRM Online 2015 Update 1, or you want to use the previous phone app – now called CRM for phones express – see Set up CRM for phones express.

Note

Tablet support requires Microsoft Dynamics CRM Online Fall ‘13 or later, or Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2015 or later.

For on-premises deployments of Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2015, the mobile apps require an Internet-facing deployment of Microsoft Dynamics CRM Server that uses claims-based authentication.

The mobile apps are compatible with the devices and operating systems that they are specifically designed for. These apps may not be compatible with other mobile devices such as smartphones or other tablet devices that are not listed in this documentation.

Accessing Microsoft Dynamics CRM from a web browser on an Apple or Android mobile device provides a similar experience to accessing from a web browser on a desktop or laptop computer. However, some features are not available, including:

  • Yammer

  • Reports

  • Customization/Editors

  • System Settings

  • Advanced Find

  • Process dialogs

  • Lync presence

  • Adding attachments to Notes - for Apple iPad users with Microsoft Dynamics CRM (on-premises).

  • Entities that use classic forms such as Goal and Order Product. See Entities using classic forms.
