Can I use Windchill on Smartphone ?

Best answer by MarkLobo

Mike -

Correct. Under the current licensing policy, a Windchill Mobile license is required for each registered user of Windchill, regardless if they use the Mobile app or not.

Correct. If you connect to the Windchill server directly via the browser on a mobile device, no Windchill Mobile license is needed. However, there are some caveats with this solution. For example, there is no integrated 3D viewing (leveraging Creo View) when accessing Windchill on a mobile device directly via the browser.

PTC does offer a free Creo View Mobile App for the Apple iPad or iPhone devices (iOS). It is possible to download the Creo View Mobile App from PTC.com (http://www.ptc.com/product/creo/visualization/creo-view-mobile) or from the iTunes App store (http://itunes.apple.com/app/creo-view-mobile/id560549930?mt=8). Creo View Mobile App is not currently supported on Android/Windows mobile platforms.

I want to make sure I understand….

The Windchill App is free at the Apple Store. I currently have a PDMLink Heavy user license to access Windchill . However, I need an additional Mobile license to be able to use the App connected to my PDMLink system.

Is that correct?

Mike - That is correct. Currently, a Windchill Mobile license is needed for each registered Windchill user to connect the Windchill Mobile app to their Windchill server.
