It’s the same as the helper phones
Diad 5 after the first scan it goes to apt/ste
Diad 6 you have to select apt/ste by touching the correct part on the screen than type in the apt/ste number
But like I said it’s still beta testing and I talk with someone from corporate almost every night and tell them what’s good and what’s bad
I'll look at this. The problem is, the software keyboard will popup if we automatically put you into the apt/ste number field. For stops where you don't want/need to fill out this field, you'd most likely have to dismiss the keyboard to continue. So either way, going to be a nuisance. But like I said, I'll take a look - noted as an annoyance.
Will it still record delivery info when you get to an area at&t has no service?
It will save the information and send it up when you regain network coverage.
Probably NOT left handed friendly.
When you get your hands on one, let me know what you think. PM or make a post about it. There's no reason why the software/device should be pre-dispositioned towards left/right handed users. I can't change the hardware, but if there is something on screen that is more suited towards righties, we can move its position or even create a left-handed mode.
Do you have to continually sign in to the board or does it stay signed in all day once you punch in.
The device should stay signed in all day as long as you don't go out of network coverage for a significant period of time. If you do, you will be re-prompted for your credentials.
I don't like the idea of having to use my UPSers login. There's too much information on that site that can easily be hacked from a wireless device like this.
No, you are 1000% right. UPSers has way too much information as it is and a modified device like the diad still operates on either a windows platform, android platform, or IOS platform. All of them have been hacked at some point.
It's part of new security standards. Your password is not saved in the device, and it is encrypted when it is sent up for authentication. I understand both the apprehension of typing it in, and also the annoyance of having to use it to login. All I can say is, all of that pales in comparison to the amount of software-development BS that is required to make it all work.
- FYI -
I am a developer on this product. However, I didn't write the business rules, didn't design the hardware, etc etc. Most of the things y'all hate on, I don't like either. I'm not steering the ship here.
D6 is still in early beta, there will be bugs and issues. If you have valid feedback about the application running on the device, PM me or respond to this thread and I will see what I can do. I would
genuinely like to make your lives easier - just keep in mind we both work for same company, we both deal with the same BS. I'm not the one calling the shots, I'm just a code monkey.
