Our software package reduces both project complexity and time
by a factor of 10.
How it works
(1). Expose variables in your Windows program to be monitored and/ or controlled. | |
(2). Select pre-fab modules in the SDK to build up an Apple iOS user interface view(s) for getting / setting the exposed variable values, all done on a Windows PC. No iOS coding is needed. | |
(3). Enter the URL assigned to the UI (from 2) into the iQuipment app and start controlling that Windows application you wrote from an iOS device. |
Features
1. Absolutely NO need to code in Apple iOS or deal with the iTuens® store app approval process.
2. Design your unique iOS user interfaces in your familiar Windows environment.
3. Includes a ready to use barcode / QR code reader which utilizes the built-in camera to feed data to the Windows application / database / services that you have developed.
