Webinato Mobile App Features

Important Update: The list of unsupported features has been updated.

The Webinato Mobile App (current version 5.1) is available in the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store. The app provides support for the vast majority of all features with the Webinato system.

Please note: Although the Mobile app works on smartphones, it has been optimized for iPad and Android tablets.

Recommended Connection: WiFi. Cellular connections may not have the stability needed for live events, but they can still be used if no wireless alternative is available.

Login:

The login process is quite simple as shown below. All logins should be completed in a browser page which will launch the app from there. Please do not launch the app directly on your mobile device.

1. Open your mobile device browser at the room link as if you were connecting from a PC or Mac. Your browser should show the Mobile login page with Step 1 and Step 2. If not, it means you have set your mobile browser to act as a regular browser. In that case, click the Mobile Login link.
2. Get the Webinato Mobile app and install it if you have not done so before. Once the installation process is complete, go back to your web browser.
3. Tap the Tap here to launch button.
4. Follow the instructions and when prompted enter email and password if any. If no password is required for the room, there will be no password field visible.

SSO (Single Sign-On) access from another website is also supported.
