FAQ 010: Does ClinicOffice run on an iPad or Android Tablet?

[Support]

ClinicOffice is a Microsoft Windows application which means that it was designed and programmed to run on Microsoft Windows. Apple iPads run on "iOS" which is Apple's own operating system and Android Tablets (such as the "Samsung Galaxy Tab") likewise run Android's OS.

So the short answer is no, ClinicOffice will not run on these devices because they are not Microsoft Windows devices.

However, it is possible to connect to the ClinicOffice HOSTED Edition using an iPad or Android Tab device. This is because the ClinicOffice Hosted Edition runs on our Windows Cloud Servers and all your device is doing is connecting to it, rather than running the program itself.

*** IMPORTANT NOTE ***
Given that ClinicOffice was designed to run on Microsoft Windows, you will undoubtedly have a far better experience using ClinicOffice on a Windows PC. While iPads and other tablet devices are able to connect to the ClinicOffice HOSTED Edition, the limited screen size, lack of mouse and need for a virtual keyboard (which takes up a large portion of the screen) detract from the functionality of the software and make it harder to use.
