This article lists the minimum requirements needed to run the Appspace App for Devices either on purpose-built devices and built-in devices, or the Appspace Employee App for employees on browsers or mobile devices.

We currently have three app categories, catered for the following:

  • Appspace for devices
    The Appspace App for industry-standard devices is supported on a multitude of operating systems and device platforms such as Chrome OS, Android, iOS, BrightSign, Cisco, Crestron, and such, that meet different use cases including playback performance, physical dimensions, hardware features, content delivery modes (streaming or caching), and workplace experiences.
    The Appspace App for devices is ideal for various workplace experiences including:
    • digital signage for single-display TV, multiple screens, video walls, or system on chip (SOC) TVs.
    • room scheduling systems on tablets with touch-screen enabled or widescreen TVs.
    • touch-screen kiosks for wayfinding, visitor registration, and employee directories.
    • enterprise TV live streams.
      Most of these industry-leading media devices have their own internal storage, hence content from Appspace is cached.
  • Appspace built-in
    Appspace has collaborated with several vendors to offer integrated solutions, to provide added value by leveraging existing workplace vendor devices and systems that may have a specialized dedicated function (i.e. video conferencing). The Appspace App comes pre-built in most of these devices and only custom Appspace features are available, such as:
    • basic wallpaper or signage displays using Appspace on room conferencing devices that are idle.
    • basic wallpaper or signage displays using Appspace Lite, on the vendor’s device management portal.
    • room scheduling with Appspace cards on purpose-built room scheduling devices or smart signboards.
    Content from Appspace is streamed and not stored locally due to the devices’ functional limitations.

  • Appspace for employees
    The Appspace Employee App, an Appspace app for employee communication, is available on Android and iOS mobile devices, or via our web portal. Employees may:
    • browse and view corporate content published to them or their user groups.
    • reserve rooms, desks, or designated workspaces at the office.
    • book a building pass for a building or campus area with restricted access.
