If you’re not sure what device to use with InspectARide that\u2019s okay!\u00a0It seems like there are a million different options and you want to make sure you get the one that will work best for you. The bad news is that there isn’t one device that is ‘best’, but the good news is there are a lot of good options. Below are some things to consider when deciding what device might be best for you:<\/span><\/p>\n

1. One of the first things to decide is whether to use an iOS (iPhone\/iPad) or Android device. This comes down to personal preference\u00a0and is usually based on what they have experience using. From a big-picture standpoint, both iOS and Android work great and you won’t go wrong with either.<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Next, decide what size device you want to use. What’s best may depend on the type of vehicle inspections you’re doing and the environment you’re in. Having something extremely portable that slips in your pocket may be a priority. If that\u2019s the case then a phone makes the most sense. If you want something larger so that you can easily review the information with another person, then maybe a tablet would work best. <\/span><\/p>\n

3. Getting a newer device costs more\u00a0but is\u00a0usually worth it. You don’t always have to have the latest and greatest model, but once you start to get a few models behind, you won’t get the speed and battery performance that you would with a newer model. For example, if you put an iPhone 7\u00a0side by side with an iPhone\u00a011\u00a0the speed difference is huge. Having an older device that is a little slower on each inspection you do adds up over time and in the long, you’ll be better off upgrading devices.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
