Mobile Specific Home
Access your dashboard, wherever you are
Overview
The mobile-specific home page in MangoApps offers a customizable dashboard optimized for smartphones and tablets. By enabling the mobile-specific Home, admins can create a unique experience for mobile users with widgets tailored specifically for mobile devices, separate from the web Home module.
Enabling the Mobile-Specific Home
By default, the mobile-specific home will be disabled. To enable, from the Admin Portal, navigate to Modules > Home and click the Mobile tab. Toggle the switch to gain access to the widgets customization options for mobile.
Adding Widgets to the Mobile Home Menu
To configure the mobile home page for all users, admins can choose widgets from the gallery or copy the web view widgets.
Clicking the Copy Web Widgets option will reset the mobile dashboard and copy all the widgets from the web dashboard to the mobile version, replacing any other widgets in the list.
Open the Widget Gallery
Click the Widget Gallery button to open the Add Widgets pop-up. From this window, search for widgets or select them from the available list.
Search by Widget Name: Use the Quick Search text box to type a widget name. For example, type "holiday" to search for the Upcoming Holidays widget, then click to add it.
Browse Widget Categories: Click categories on the left-hand side of the pop-up (e.g., "More Widgets") to load different widget options. Select widgets like "My Calendar" or "Announcements" by clicking on them.
Click Done to finalize.
Widget Customization
Once widgets have been added to the list, drag and drop them to rearrange them within the list.
To adjust or remove a widget, click the 3-Dot Action menu next to the widget:
Remove: Deletes the widget from the dashboard.
Set Properties: Allows you to customize settings like the widget title, visibility, and display limit for the mobile view.
Copy Web Dashboard Widgets
To sync your mobile dashboard with the web version, click the Copy Web Widgets option. This will reset the mobile dashboard and copy all the widgets from the web dashboard to the mobile version.
Publishing the Mobile Dashboard
Once the home dashboard has been configured the mobile dashboard satisfactorily, click Publish Full Dashboard to push the mobile dashboard to all users. The mobile dashboard will remain in a locked state after publishing to maintain consistency.
Modules cannot be customized from the mobile app. Any changes must be made from the desktop site.
