Testing Your Browser
Go to the following page on your device to test if the browser has the technologies required to run GQueues Mobile.
Why No "Native" Apps?
At this point GQueues has decided NOT to offer "native apps" for your phone (ones that you must download from places such as the App Store or Android Marketplace). Instead, GQueues is taking advantage of the latest browser technology, HTML5, to allow you to work offline right inside your phone's web browser.
The main advantage of this approach is that only ONE offline version needs to be developed to work on a variety of devices. This strategy allows GQueues to continue its practice of pushing out changes and new features frequently, since only one mobile version must be updated with each change.
