i.safe MOBILE Unveils App World, its own Digital Platform for Selected Applications

For the first time, device-compatible Push-to-Talk and MDM solutions will be presented in the i.safe MOBILE App World on the 5G radio IS440.1

i.safe MOBILE is introducing the App World, its own digital platform for specific application software, to coincide with the current delivery of IS440.1. Customers can now download selected applications that are compatible with the device directly from the pre-installed App World on the new 5G radio and update them regularly. The App World contains product-related, selected Push-To-Talk and MDM solutions that have proven themselves because of their ease of use and secure application on the IS440.1. This means that customers are free to choose their preferred software from the App World. With the future-proof concept of the platform, i.safe MOBILE rounds off the range of mobile devices for Ex areas, accessories, excellent services and suitable software solutions.

The idea of the i.safe MOBILE App World was born from i.safe MOBILE customers’ suggestions who wanted to have quick and easy access to device-compatible applications.  

The App World was developed by the i.safe MOBILE software team to provide customers with tested and compatible applications from solution partners on devices such as the IS440.1 that have the ISM OS operating system and do not have a Google Play Store installed. The platform is part of the firmware and is already pre-installed on the device. The customer can select, install and regularly update compatible PTT and MDM solutions for the device in the App World. No separate account is needed to access the App World; users can install the selected application with the corresponding license. The App World is regularly updated with additional software solutions. 

The App World is currently available on the IS440.1 device. Regarding other GMS devices in the i.safe MOBILE product portfolio, customers still have access to the Google Play Store.

Installing applications via the i.safe MOBILE App World is as easy as on other digital platforms: The customer opens the App World, selects the desired application, starts the download and can then immediately open and use the software application (if the license is already available). Users can actively and regularly download the latest updates for individual applications in the App World. 

Secure and independent: The App World is hosted on a dedicated i.safe MOBILE application server located in Germany. With every firmware update, it is upgraded with the latest security patches, bug fixes and updates. As usual, the user is informed about firmware updates via push notification.

i.safe MOBILE and its solution partners test the applications for compatibility, security and reliability before being included in the App World. This also ensures functionality after each update of applications and device firmware. 

Use of the pre-installed App World is free of charge for i.safe MOBILE customers. In advance, it is necessary to purchase licenses for the applications contained in the App World. 

The App World is located on the home screen and can be moved individually as usual.
