Installing the App | Zoho CRM on Android

Installing the App

The Zoho CRM Mobile Edition allows you to access and work with your online Zoho CRM data from anywhere on Android devices. You can also perform actions like adding, modifying, or deleting records in offline mode. These updates will be saved locally and synchronized with your online account when your device is connected to the network. Before you install the app, take a look at the prerequisites.  

You must have:
  1. Mobile Edition activated for your account: By default, all the user profiles will have Mobile Edition enabled. The Administrator can disable or enable access from the web CRM account at any time by navigating to Setup > Users and Control > Security Control > Profiles > Other Permissions > CRM Mobile Apps Access.
  2. An internet connection: The Zoho CRM app requires a Wi-Fi network or cellular network to communicate with Zoho CRM. However, you can also work with the local data in your device even if you lose connectivity to the internet. The updates will sync with your master CRM account when you are connected back to a Wi-Fi or cellular network.

Installing the app on Android

You can download and install the Zoho CRM application from the Play Store. You will need OS 5.0 or higher to use the app. When you sign in to Zoho CRM using your Android phone, 200 records will be downloaded onto the device as part of the initial synchronization.
