Web and mobile apps

All the steps at your fingertips!

Accessing the portal on a mobile device has been optimized for small screens and touch interactions.

Each page has been adapted to provide a display suitable for different screen sizes.

As the web portal is a PWA, when accessed with a smartphone, a message appears at the bottom of the screen inviting the user to add it to their home screen. A shortcut will then be created on the smartphone desktop, and it will be possible to access the content as in a mobile app.

Initial features have been developed to cache some of the content offline, allowing it to be consulted later without an internet connection. It is possible to cache the details of desired content from their detail sheet to access it without a connection (texts, photos, maps).

It is also possible to display your GPS location on the map.
