Android: Phones and Tablets (as a native app), and RealWear® devices
Windows: For Windows 7, 8.1 and 10 on desktop computers, phones and tablets.
The following section provides guidelines and requirements for what hardware we recommend to run a JourneyApps application.
Android - Phones, Tablets and RealWear® devices

Device Models
Any mainstream device from a reputable manufacturer such as Samsung, Asus, Google, Sony, LG, Lenovo, HTC or RealWear®

Supported: minimum of 1.5GB RAM and 1.4GHz dual-core CPU.

Recommended: minimum of 2GB RAM and 1.4GHz quad-core CPU. It is recommended to use a device with a recent Android version that gets regular security updates.
Recommendations
1D Barcode Scanning
If you need to scan 1-dimensional barcodes (vertical stripes), you require a device with a camera that has auto-focus.

Screen Space
If you have an app that requires a large amount of screen space (for example, users will be working with tables of information with several columns), or if you want to use tablet-specific JourneyApps features (such as columns and sidebars), then a large tablet (10 inches) is recommended.

RealWear® devices
We recommend that the latest version of Android System WebView is installed on RealWear® devices. We recommend installing the arm64-v8a + arm-v7a WebView variant, with Android 6.0+ listed as the minimum Android version.

Troubleshooting note: We recommend first installing Android System WebView before installing a JourneyApps application. If an unsupported WebView version or variant was previously installed on a device, you may need to first uninstall Android System WebView as well the JourneyApps application from the device, before proceeding to install the correct WebView version as described above.
