Use Your App on the Go

Take It on the Road

Your app is created! The final step is to make sure you can add discoveries to your app from your mobile device, so that no matter where you are, you can keep track of great resources you find related to your Salesforce journey.

Create a User

Create a username and password you will remember, so you can sign in to Salesforce mobile and use your new app.

• From Setup, enter Users in Quick Find and select Users. (Note: Check to see if you already have a User record set up as a System Administrator. If so, you can skip this step.)
  
• Click New User.
  
• Create a new user as follows:
  

• Enter your first and last name.
  
• Enter a unique alias.
  
• Enter a valid email address.
  
• Enter a unique username. Your username should be formed like an email address, but it does not need to be a valid email address. For example, you can create a username like anyname@mycareer.com or anything@notarealemail.com.
  
• Enter a unique nickname.
  
• For User License, select Salesforce, then for Profile, select System Administrator. If a Salesforce license isn't available, select the Salesforce Platform license and the Salesforce Platform User profile.
  
• For Role, select CEO.
  

• Click Save.
  
• Check your email for an activation email. Click the link in the email and set your password.
  

Now you have a username and password to access your app easily.

Install the Salesforce Mobile App

Always run the mobile app on a device that meets minimum platform requirements. If you have an Android or iOS device that meets the minimum requirements, you can use the downloadable Salesforce mobile app available from the App Store® or Google Play™.

Once you have the app installed on your mobile device, use the username and password you created to sign in.

If you are unable to install the app, run the browser version of the mobile app by opening a browser window on your mobile device and logging in at login.salesforce.com.

Now You Can Use Your App from Anywhere

With the Salesforce mobile app, you can create new records to track your discoveries. As you hear about events or group meetups, or find blog posts or websites you want to track, you can add them to your app using your mobile device.
