Offline Applications

Our "OFFLINE"  applications allow you to download video "hardsets" locally to your mobile device(s) so you can continue to access the videos without an internet connection; OFFLINE apps are available at the App Store and on Google Play.  To access hardsets, download the OFFLINE version of the appropriate application and login with your userid & password.  The OFFLINE applications will auto-save your login credentials, enabling you to simply tap login in future sessions to access your OFFLINE hardset video library.
 
Upon login, you will see all of the offline hardset videos you are authorized to download.  Please note that not all videos in your online library may be available as hardsets.

Downloading Hardsets

• A strong Wi-Fi connection is required for the initial download as well as any subsequent updates to the hardset videos.
• The files vary in size and may be quite large depending on the individual video length so please allow adequate time to download and install.  
• Timeout issues are usually attributed to poor or interrupted internet connectivity.  If you encounter a timeout message you’ll need to reattempt the installation.
• If an OFFLINE hardset video fails to install, please check available storage on your device prior to contacting your account manager.

Offline Apps - Important Tips

• Once a hardset is downloaded, the OFFLINE applications work best with Wi-Fi disabled.  Turning Wi-Fi off prevents the app from attempting to contact the server for updates and will eliminate potential access issues should you encounter Wi-Fi connectivity issues.
• Even with Wi-Fi disabled, you can still use the "email send" function in the Help, Contact and Notes panels.  The emails will be sent once Wi-Fi connectivity is restored.
• Note:  The email send function on your tablet requires you to have an account configured through the accounts area in settings.
• If a video hardset that you've previously downloaded is updated, you'll need to update/download the updated hardset prior to being able to access the hardset (you'll see the word "UPDATE" in place of "WATCH" on the video).  Check for updates periodically, as you will need a strong Wi-Fi connection to run them.  
• If you delete the OFFLINE application from your device, all local video downloads will be deleted as well.  
  • The individual video hardsets are packaged within the OFFLINE application when they are downloaded.  
  • “Restore Purchases” function can be used when your mobile device needs to be replaced or if the OFFLINE application is deleted and re-installed.  This will help you restore all OFFLINE videos downloaded.  NOTE: Not applicable at this time.
  • Please contact your account manager prior to manually deleting the OFFLINE application or if you wish to remove specific hardsets from your individual video listing.

Mobile Platform Tips

There are several differences between the web platform and the mobile application platform, and the viewing experience will therefore be slightly different depending on how you're accessing your video library.  

Mobile Platform Experience: 

• To pause/play the video, simply tap the pause/play action bar icon.  Tapping the main angle does not pause or play the video on the mobile platform applications.
• Tap and drag a supporting angle to swap angle positions.  The supporting angle will move to the main angle location and the main angle will move to the supporting angle location. 
  • The video will continue to play as angles are swapped.
  • You can move any angle location to any other angle location.
  • On Android, you’ll need to tap and hold an angle for several seconds.  When you see the angle change and the angle number duplicated, you can then swap the angle.  
• While in Dual View or Quad View, you can tap and drag any angle to any other angle position.
• To enable slow motion, tap the slow motion button.  Tapping the slow motion button again will take you back to regular play speed (Android devices do not have slow motion capability).
• To close a video and return to the video catalog listings:
  • Apple:  tap “< Back” in the upper left corner; Android:  tap your back button.
• To refresh your video list so that all newly updated and/or authorized videos appear:
  • Apple:  tap/hold the screen and swipe down; Android:  tap the refresh icon at the top right.  
• To logout of the mobile application:
  • Apple:  tap “Logout” in upper right corner; Android:  if you are in a video, tap the menu button and then tap logout.
• Tap "Categories" in the upper right corner to view configured categories.  If a drop down does not appear, no video categories are configured.
• Tap “Settings” in the upper right corner to control your video timeout option.  By default, the video will pause after 10 minutes of no user device interaction.
• There are no pop up bubbles for longer names and title entries as there are on the web.

Application Error?

• A screenshot of the error or bug/issue you're experiencing.
• An explaination of what happened, or the sequence of events/clicks that preceeded the error.
