HTML5 Mobile Application
About the App
Is this really a mobile app?
Yes!
Using the newest technology available, our app uses HTML5 to work on just about every mobile device on the market today. This technology allows your device to automatically download the app and save it to your device for use offline. It also auto updates to the newest version when you connect via the Internet.
But it isn't in the app store.
HTML5 is supported my most new mobile devices. This allows us to have the same app work on the iPad, iPhone, Blackberry, and Android without needing to go through each individual app store.
Still want it from the app store? Get the Android Truck stops and services directory on Google Play.
Get the iOS Truck Stops and Services Directory in the Apple Store.
Isn't this just a website?
While the app works through your mobile device's browser, it isn't just another website. Using HTML5, your device is able to download the files and run them even when you aren't connected to the Internet. It will use the cached (stored) version of the app while you are offline.
Using the app offline
If you have hit and miss 3G service, then just go into "airplane mode" and the app will stop trying to check for the newest updates and just run off of the previously downloaded version.
Installing the HTML5 Application on Your Mobile Device
Installing the app on each device is a little different but the concept is the same. You just need to "add to your home screen". Once you add the app to your home screen, your mobile device will automatically download and install all of the required files so that your app can run offline.
