Mobileforce allows you to access the Mobileforce application outside of the source CRM using a web browser or a mobile device:
Mobileforce web application
From a web browser, all users can directly access the cloud-based Mobileforce applications by entering the applicable URL (https://tiny.cc/Mobileforce), without installing or downloading any other applications. Through this uniform access method you can not only access Mobileforce applications, such as Mobileforce CPQ and FSM, but also, you can access the Mobileforce mobile apps.
Regardless of your organization or role, all users can access Mobileforce web applications via the provided url; however, access to your Mobileforce applications is based on your log in information. Based on your role in your organization, the Mobileforce web apps may provide (or restrict) access to specific screens and objects within those applications,
Note:
If you obtained a license to Mobileforce apps through a CRM (i.e., the CRM App Marketplace), then you would access Mobileforce Apps directly from the User Interface for the CRM.
In these instances, Mobileforce Apps are embedded as an iFrame with the same look and feel as the source CRM,
Mobileforce Mobile Apps
Mobileforce mobile apps are native to your mobile device, so they are available for download from both the Apple App Store, and the Google Play store.
