By release

What IBM says about Maximo Mobile

What Maximo Mobile is

  • Maximo Mobile is IBM's role-based mobile product for technicians and supervisors, with apps for work execution, inspections, inventory and service requests on iOS, Android and Windows.

    “Maximo® Mobile is a role-based mobile solution that enables technicians and supervisors to manage work and assets from any location. It includes apps for work execution, inspections, inventory, and service requests, and supports iOS, Android, and Windows devices.” — IBM Docs — Maximo Mobile overview, read 2026-09-12

  • The Technician, Approvals, Inspections and Service Request apps are the core set; IBM publishes their object structures, queries and security authorisations.

    “This article points to information for the object structures, query information, and related security authorization used in the Technician, Approvals, Inspections, and Service Request applications.” — IBM Support — Maximo Mobile application object structures, query information, and security authorization (3 May 2024), read 2026-09-12

Shell, Graphite apps, online and offline

  • The store app is a shell. IBM updates the shell through the public app stores independently of the Graphite applications that run inside it, and keeps the shell runtime backward compatible.

    “IBM can release updates to the shell through public app stores without affecting the functionality of the Graphite Applications themselves. … IBM ensures backward compatibility of the runtime environment that the shell provides to the Graphite Applications, allowing for seamless updates.” — IBM Support — IBM Maximo Mobile architecture (6 May 2025), read 2026-09-12

  • The Graphite apps themselves live in Maximo Manage, as zip files in the MAFAPPDATA table, and the shell pulls a new version whenever Manage has one.

    “The Graphite Applications, developed using MAF, are stored as zip files in the MAFAPPDATA database table, within a BLOB column. … It then updates the files into the shell whenever a new version of the Graphite Application is available in Maximo.” — IBM Support — IBM Maximo Mobile architecture (6 May 2025), read 2026-09-12

  • Data on the device sits in a local JSON store encrypted with a key held in the device keystore; data fetched online is saved there automatically and offline work syncs back when connectivity returns.

    “… a local JSON data store is created on the device … encrypted by using a unique key that is saved in the device's keystore. … data that is retrieved from Maximo Manage is automatically saved to the local data store … when connectivity is restored, local data is automatically synchronized.” — IBM Docs — Maximo Mobile authentication and data flow, read 2026-09-12

  • The app treats airplane mode, a disabled network adapter, low bandwidth, an unreachable Manage server or an expired login session as offline and carries on from local data.

    “Offline mode activates when devices are in "airplane mode," have "network adapter disabled," experience "low bandwidth," cannot reach "Maximo Manage," or when "login session expires." … continue to work …” — IBM Docs — Maximo Mobile authentication and data flow, read 2026-09-12

  • There is no offline switch to enable. The app moves between online and offline on its own.

    “There is no 'Enable Offline Mode' button in Maximo Mobile. It is designed in such a way that it automatically switches between Online and Offline mode based on the condition.” — IBM Support — How to enable Offline Mode in Maximo Mobile (17 Sep 2025), read 2026-09-12

  • After suite login the app holds a token for every server request: 30 minutes for the access token and 12 hours for the refresh token by default.

    “… a token, which is used to authenticate all requests to the server … 30 minutes for the access token and 12 hours for refresh token.” — IBM Docs — Maximo Mobile authentication and data flow, read 2026-09-12

    “Android devices must support ARCore if you intend to support the Assist application.” — IBM Docs — Device requirements for Maximo Mobile, read 2026-09-12

  • Shared devices are the operating system's job: each user needs their own workspace and profile, and on iOS an MDM plus PIN or biometrics must be in place.

    “If the device is shared between users, the shared device is managed by the device operating system. Each user must have their own workspace and user profile. On iOS devices, to support device sharing, a mobile device management (MDM) solution must be installed on the device. PIN and biometrics must be available for authentication on the device.” — IBM Docs — Device requirements for Maximo Mobile, read 2026-09-12
