There are two basic versions of Android Operation systems you will find on a mobile scanner device running Android:
1. Android - Has Google Play store
2. Google Enterprise - No Google Play store
If you purchase a device that has the Google Playstore on it, you may easily get the Finale Inventory application by opening the Google play store, and searching for Finale Inventory, and clicking on it.
It will download and install the latest version for you. In the future, you can return to the Google play store app on your device to check for updates to our program and update it very easily.
If you purchase a device that does not have the Google Play store on it, you will need to download the Finale Inventory app .APK file to your device manually.
Follow the BOLD Instructions and videos below specific installation and update scenarios.
If you purchased a mobile scanning device from our hardware partner, Barcode-Arena, and you used one of the links that had the Finale Inventory logo or you used the PROMO CODE: finaleinventory4life at checkout, the Finale Inventory app should have already been installed on your device for you. Go find it and run it and follow the setup and configuration instructions here.
Here are alternate links for the latest version of the Finale Inventory Android OS app:
