The Challenge: Operational Blind Spots in the Field

Qlarm's cloud-based platform was already making waves in control rooms. But customers needed more:
  • Technicians were missing critical alarms while on rounds
  • Managers lacked mobile visibility during off-site hours
  • Field teams couldn’t easily access asset history or trends on the go

The Solution: Industrial Alarming Meets iOS

Our team developed a fully responsive mobile app for iPhone and iPad, designed with field conditions and real-time needs in mind.

Key Features:

  • Live dashboards with asset data and KPIs
  • Push notifications for triggered events
  • Interactive event handling (acknowledge/mute from device)
  • QR code scanning for instant asset lookup
  • Floorplan mapping and location-based asset views
This mobile app is one of the most valuable tools in an operator’s workflow.

The Results: Faster Reactions and Smarter Decisions

  • Reduced response time to alarms in the field
  • Greater situational awareness for plant managers
  • Increased efficiency and reduced trips back to control rooms

What’s Next for Qlarm Mobile?

  • On-device dashboard configuration
  • Augmented reality overlays for asset data
  • Location-aware notifications and shift-based alarm filtering
  • Expert chat and video consultations
