Settings in Opter Driver for iOS

Most of the settings relating to the way Opter Driver works, such as what should be mandatory to fill in and which statuses are available for selection, are configured by the dispatcher. But you can adjust some basic settings in the app. These settings apply only on the device on which they are set.

The settings page can be found in the app in one of the following ways:

When you have finished entering your settings, tap Close and your settings will be saved. (In app versions before 2.3.0, tap Save).

FunctionDescription

Open system settings

Information about the app is displayed. For example, it is possible to view and change permissions for the camera, notifications/alerts and location access.

Save password

To ensure that the app remembers your password, select Save password. The username is always saved.

Default setting:

Hide future shipments

To ensure that the app only displays today’s shipments, select Hide future shipments. The app then hides shipments to be carried out the next day or further ahead.

Note:

If the working session extends beyond midnight, shipments are hidden after 00.00 if this option is selected.

Default setting:

Hide locked shipments

The dispatcher can define that shipments are to be locked as long as the previous shipment on the order has not yet been unloaded. If you select this option, locked shipments are not displayed in the app.

Default setting:

Turn off GPS

Select Turn off GPS to turn off the GPS function.

If you turn off the GPS function, your position will not be shown in dispatch.

Default setting:

Hide maps

To ensure the maps are not displayed in the app, select Hide maps.

Default setting:

Font sizeThe size of the text in the app can adjusted by dragging the slider to the right or left. If you want larger text, drag the slider to the right. If you want less text, drag the slider to the left.
Server address or Cloud ID

 

QR/Scan

Once you have connected the app to your Opter system, your cloud ID (cloud name) or server address is displayed here.

The cloud ID (cloud name) or server address is used for communication between the app and your Opter system.

If you wish to connect the app to your Opter system, this can be done in one of the following ways:

  • Enter your cloud ID (cloud name), i.e. your company name as it is known in OPTER, for example “courierservices”. There must be no spaces in the name, nor after the name.

  • Tap QR (or Scan) and scan the Opter Driver QR code given to you, as the driver, by your system administrator. For more information, see Basics of Opter Driver for iOS.

  • Enter the server address given to you, as the driver, by the system administrator, for example “https://courierservices.opter.cloud:xyz/mobile”. For more information, see Basics of Opter Driver for iOS.

Close/Save

Tap Close to save your settings. (In app versions before 2.3.0, tap Save).
