Since the 11.20 release, the BYODAPP HTML5 client has been greatly enhanced to offer the best possible user experience even from Smartphones or tablets. The keyboard has been redesigned to automatically pop-up when the focus is over an entry field. The mouse pointer has been redesigned to facilitate the selection of buttons and fields even if located on the left or the bottom borders of a Smartphone.

You can set up various different HTML5 settings for mobile devices or computers on the HTML5 client tile of the Web Tab:
