Upgrade the iPad app
If you would like to install the LinkPOS iPad app or have been asked to upgrade to the latest or a specific version of the app the first thing to do is bring up the Safari web browser on the iPad where the app will be installed:
- Touch the Safari icon
- Touch the address bar at the top of the page
- Go to the LinkPOS app download web page by entering this URL in the address bar: https://linkpos.net/app
- Touch the link under the Current Build section. If you have been asked to install a specific version then select the link for that version. In this screenshot the current version is 2047
- A dialog will pop up asking if you want to install the app. Touch Install
- After selecting Install, on the iPad home screen it will show the LinkPOS icon loading and then installing.
- When the progress wheel finishes and the LinkPOS icon returns to normal, touch the LinkPOS icon to start the app
- You can verify the new version installed at the bottom of the LinkPOS login screen. In this case it is 2047. The app is updated and ready to use.
Installing the app for the first time
If the app has not already been installed on the iPad then you will get this warning when touching the LinkPOS icon:
In order to run the app you must first allow the app to be run by trusting the LinkPOS enterprise developer - OlympusPOS LLC.
To do this you need to go to the iPad settings app
From the settings app select General and then VPN & Device Management
From there select OlympusPOS LLC
Then touch Trust Olympus POS LLC and it will pop up a confirmation dialog where you will touch Trust again to trust the LinkPOS developer.
At this point you can go back to the iPad home screen and touch the LinkPOS app to start the app.
Since this is the first time the app has been run on this iPad you will need the credentials for your store to log in. Please contact LinkPOS support and they can walk you through the steps to set up a new register or restore an existing one.
