Mobile Forms For IoT Devices Management: Use Smartphones For The IoT Devices Configuration

Setup and manage IoT devices with a smartphone. Use a mobile application as a flexible and easily changeable control panel for the IoT devices. Allow IoT devices customers to enter device configuration parameters in the mobile form on a smartphone, then send configuration parameters to the IoT device via a bluetooth low energy connection with a click of a button.

How Mobile Forms Application Benefits IoT Devices Manufacturers

Why Use Mobile Forms App For IoT Devices Management, Configuration And Control

  • IoT devices management without extra hardware. A smartphone can communicate with the IoT devices directly, without a need for the internet connection and gateways. This ability is very helpful for managing IoT devices in the small IoT networks or remote installations.
  • Direct communication with the IoT devices. A smartphone can communicate directly with the IoT devices - no internet connection is required. This is important for the areas with no internet connection, or for managing IoT devices without built-in wifi or cellular chips.
  • Custom mobile forms for IoT devices management and configuration. Create custom mobile forms that will allow users to manage and control IoT devices from a smartphone. Use smartphone as a convenient and easily customizable control panel for the IoT devices.
  • Use smartphones as gateways between the IoT devices and the cloud. Use smartphones with the mobile forms application as a gateway between the IoT devices and the cloud. Use mobile application to collect and save data from the IoT devices on a smartphone, submit collected data to the cloud from a smartphone when internet connection is available.
  • Managing groups of IoT devices using configuration profiles. Create configuration profiles for the IoT devices. Use a mobile forms application for IoT devices management to apply configuration profile to multiple IoT devices without the need to re-enter information.

How QR Mobile Data Software With Bluetooth Addition Helps With The IoT Devices Management

  • Custom mobile forms for the IoT devices management, configuration and control. Use QR Mobile Data software web interface to create custom mobile forms for IoT devices management and configuration. Your customers will be able to load these forms on their smartphones or tablets, enter desired configuration parameters and send them to the IoT devices via bluetooth low energy communication.
  • Use mobile forms with your existing IoT devices firmware. If your IoT devices already have bluetooth low energy communication built-in there is no need to change anything in the devices firmware. Specify data type for the mobile forms fields, and link them to the GATT services and GATT characteristic that should be used for sending configuration parameters to the IoT device, or read data from the IoT devices. .
  • Easily manage IoT devices in the field with a smartphone. Fill out IoT device configuration parameters in a mobile form on a smartphone, and send entered parameters to the IoT device with one click. Use mobile application to read data from the IoT devices and send to the cloud for processing.
  • Use mobile forms to create and save IoT devices configuration profiles. Once a customer fills out desired parameters for the IoT devices configuration in the mobile application he can save it as a profile. Saved configuration profile can be applied to the multiple IoT devices without a need to re-enter configuration parameters for each IoT device.
  • Review and change IoT devices configuration as needed. Review a list of the network IoT devices and their current configuration parametrs via the web interface. Create and change configuration profiles as needed, then apply to the IoT devices in the field using a smartphone and a mobile application.
  • IoT devices configuration documentation and reports. Check IoT devices communication log, with the dates, employee names and configuration parameters that were applied to the device.

IoT Devices Management And Configuration Using A Mobile Forms Application: How Does It Work?

There are multiple software products (IoT platforms) on the market that allow you to manage IoT devices via the cloud interface. IoT platforms usually require incorporation of the cloud provider libraries / SDK into the IoT device firmware, specific MCU / SoC types, keeping an IoT device online and connected at all times, and an IoT gateway or IoT devices that can directly connect to the internet.

Managing and configuration of the IoT devices via the smartphone does not have these requirements. The smartphone can communicate to any BLE-enabled IoT device, does not require any specific SDK installation on the device, does not require a gateway and the IoT device does not need to have a capability to directly connect to the internet. The smartphone and the IoT devices management mobile application takes all heavy lifting of passing the data between the IoT device and the cloud. If there is no internet connection, a smartphone can use local data and sync with the cloud when the connection becomes available.

A QR Mobile Data software with the custom bluetooth addition allows IoT devices manufacturers to create custom mobile forms for the IoT devices management and configuration. IoT devices customers download the IoT devices configuration form(s) into the mobile application, fill them out and send configuration parameters to the IoT device with a click of a button. They can also save completed IoT devices configuration forms as profiles that can be applied to the multiple IoT devices.

Similarly, IoT devices customers can use a mobile application to read data from the IoT devices and send to the cloud for the processing.

IoT Devices Manufacturers


  • Use a web interface to create mobile forms for IoT devices management and configuration. You can create as many mobile forms as needed. Depending on the IoT device specifics and what the customers are allowed to configure you can have one or several mobile forms for the IoT device configuration. You can also have different mobile forms for the different types of IoT devices.
  • Link mobile forms fields to the bluetooth GATT service(s) and characteristic(s) in your IoT device firmware.
  • Register users of the system.
  • Review and check installed and configured IoT devices, activity reports.


IoT Devices Users


  • Log into the mobile application and download mobile forms for the IoT devices management and configuration.
  • Use mobile application to connect to the IoT device, fill out IoT device configuration parameters in the mobile form and apply settings to the IoT device with a click of a button.
  • Save completed IoT device configuration form as a profile, and apply this profile to other IoT devices without a need to re-enter information.
  • Do IoT devices configuration changes as needed.
  • Review IoT devices, configuration profiles and activity reports via the web dashboard.
