Newland WD1 or WD2

AppSheet AppSheet Q&A
1

Dear Appsheet fans,

Will appsheet work on a Newland WD1 or WD2 device. Is an Android 9 device used in warehouses in combination with a ‘glove’ scanner. The screen on these devices is 2.8".

I am wondering if an app that runs perfect on a ‘phone-size’ screen will work on these devices. They are compact and really interesting to work with.

Now we have the choice between ‘phone’ (works fine on Zebra, Honeywell etc handhelds), tablet and PC. Is there a way we can manipulate the UX to work on a different size of screen?

The best you can do is to test it yourself

Hi SkrOYC, I have arranged for a device so I can perform a test. Seems like a verry interesting wearable for warehouse/logistics. Br Bart

I will do some further testing, but seems appsheet is running on the device. However the UI is not scalable to make it smaller. I probably will need to work with tabs of max 2 fields and the user will need to swipe for the next tab.

The keyboard that appears is also taking more or less the entire screen.

Suggestions are welcome!
