Dexgreen Openreach App - New Features Dec 2020
Dexgreen's Openreach app has gone through many updates, improvements and bug fixes over the last few months. It now operates much more quickly and it's also got a bunch of new features you may not know about. You can view the complete changelog here or at the end of this post, but read on for some of the highlights.
Simplified Sign In
We've optimized the sign in process, so now the app will load only the information needed on launch. This means that you'll sign in much faster!
We also reworked the password reset feature, so it's now much easier to retrieve your account using the password reset functionality if you have forgotten your login details.
Faster Load Times
The Dexgreen Openreach app is a repository for lots of video guides, datasheets, photos and other media, so it could take a while to load on startup and while browsing sometimes. Well, we've optimized the app launch load times as well as reducing the file sizes for most media on the app. This means the whole experience of using our app should feel a lot smoother now than ever before.
New Training Tab
We've added a new training tab to the main app menu. For now, there is just one course here - Multi-Dwelling Unit training. Feel free to explore this training programme and the different features we developed in collaboration with Openreach's Learning and Development team.
Other training courses are being developed right now for some popular Dexgreen products, so watch this space for new content!
Augment your Reality
You may have seen Augmented Reality used to great effect in mobile apps like Ikea's furniture previewing app or the Nike Fit shoe try-on app. Well, Dexgreen are also experimenting with AR, to see how it could best be leveraged to help field engineers with installation of our equipment.
To this end, we've added an experimental AR feature to the Dexgreen Openreach app, which you can access through the sidebar. Follow the onboarding steps and play around with this new feature by dropping equipment into your environment, laying cable and measuring cable runs.
