ARM Mobile Frequently Asked Questions

Can I try ARM Mobile before I purchase?

We offer a demonstration version of ARM Mobile, with pretend trials to illustrate the capabilities of the app. The trials (and Favorites lists) are pre-loaded into the app, so real trials cannot be used with this version. 

To use the demonstration version of the ARM Mobile app:

  1. Open Safari or Chrome on your mobile device and enter the following URL to access ARM Mobile demo:
    https://mobile.gdmdata.com/arm-mobile-demo
  2. Follow the on-screen Welcome process, to initialize the app.
    1. For Sync Method, choose any of the cloud storage services: Dropbox, Google Drive, One Drive.
    2. For the demo, you are automatically connected to our demonstration folders. When using the "real" ARM Mobile, you will connect to your cloud storage folders.
  3. Then you can proceed into the app, where you will:
    1. import specific trial definition files,
    2. choose/add assessment columns,
    3. record data,
    4. review the ratings,
    5. and export the data back to cloud.
  4. A "real" connection would then allow ARM on your PC to import that data automatically into your trial files. For the demo, the data is not sent anywhere.

What devices can be used for ARM Mobile?

Any iOS or Android device can be used for ARM Mobile. 

Can ARM Mobile be used with customizations?

Yes, you can export and record data. But the mapping of assessment header fields does not always match perfectly, so care must be taken to ensure the description of the assessment is correct in the customized versions.
