Using Lorenly on a tablet

Updated 2026-09-30 · 1 min read

The mobile app runs on tablets as well as phones, which makes it a natural reception or treatment-room device.

What is different on a tablet#

• Both orientations. On a tablet the app works in portrait and landscape and turns with the device, so you can stand it whichever way suits the counter. On a phone it stays in portrait, so one-handed use is predictable.
• More room. Screens use the extra width instead of stretching a phone layout, and the calendar has more room for staff columns.

Good uses#

• A reception tablet running the calendar, with the tab bar set up for the front desk, see Customize the mobile app tabs.
• A treatment-room tablet for reviewing and taking client photos on a bigger screen.

The console on a tablet#

You can also open the console in the tablet's browser. The calendar has a Fullscreen button that suits a screen at the desk, see Calendar views, staff columns & filters.

Tip#

If the app does not turn with the tablet, check the rotation lock in the tablet's control centre: it overrides the app.
