2.6.2 About applications to be distributed
Applications can be distributed to smart devices in the following two ways:
-
The administrator issues an instruction to install the application, upon which the application is installed on the smart device (Push-distribution).
-
The administrator prepares applications in a form that can be installed by the user, and the user downloads and installs only the required applications (Pull-distribution).
The maximum size of applications that can be distributed is as follows:
|
OS |
Maximum application size |
|---|---|
|
Android |
100MB |
|
iOS |
2GB |
- Note
-
When distributing applications, the applications to be distributed are manually placed on the communication server (standard distribution). However, there is another method (simple distribution) that does not require applications to be manually placed on the communication server. With simple distribution, the maximum size of applications that can be distributed is 5 MB for Android, and 50 MB for iOS. Simple distribution is not compatible with pull distribution.
To use simple distribution, you need to modify the environment setting file for smart device manager.
