Minimum Device Requirements & Best Practices

There are also certain minimum requirements that your device must meet in order for the JobWalk App to work properly.

  • The iOS device needs to run iOS 14 or higher.

  • Mobile devices used for capturing images with the JobWalk app should have large internal storage (ideally >64GB) with at least 10GB of free storage and 4GB of RAM.

    Note: The app will warn you if you are running out of memory. Please do not ignore the warning and free up some storage space. DO NOT delete any project-related data until the project was successfully synced to the cloud but delete other data from your device non-related to the JobWalk app!

  • We recommend one user per device. Each user must always have their own Sphere XG/HoloBuilder account in order to avoid conflicts with project versions.

Free up space locally on the device on a regular basis. We recommend to periodically free up the project area or deleting the project and re-downloading the “Project Layout so that only the sheets and locations of images (so-called waypoints) are saved in the device. This will prevent the device’s storage from becoming full.

IMPORTANT: Only clean up your device or delete your project if it was already successfully synced to the cloud! Otherwise, you might lose any unsynced progress.
