SAP Analytics Cloud Mobile

SAP Analytics Cloud Mobile application is available for iOS and Android mobile devices, so that you can use SAP Analytics Cloud and its functions on your cellular phone or tablet device from anywhere at any time.

Watch this video to learn about the SAP Analytics Cloud Mobile application.

Story Design on Mobile

As we have previously discussed, the Responsive page of a story is required for viewing on any mobile devices. (Computers can also view Responsive pages.) Also keep in mind that stories can be viewed only in portrait mode for phones and landscape mode for tablets; the stories do not rotate their orientation.

You can set different font sizes for the resolutions of different device types. This allows story designers to target how text is displayed for a single story when viewed across multiple mobile devices. First select a device and size, such as an iOS Small Phone from Device Preview in the menu bar. Then with a widget in the story selected, open the Designer panel and select Styling. Fonts can be changed for individual widgets in the story.

You can also hide an individual Responsive story page so it does not appear on mobile devices. Select the drop-down icon for the page and choose Hide in mobile.

The optimized story experience enables content within an SAP Analytics Cloud story to load faster, but not all features and story options will be available when you enable the Optimized Design Experience or Optimized View Mode features. As the features that are available are evolving, refer to Preparing Stories for Mobile | SAP Help Portal for the most updated information regarding mobile support.
