Add-Ons Mobile App

Mitch Wiemans

Hello,

I have a question regarding Mobile Apps of Jira. We have installed a couple of Jira Applications on our mobile phones, and connected this to our environment.

Everything is working perfectly except for the Add-Ons. They never show up on any of the applications. 

They do show up when opening the App in desktop version, but this makes it unreadable on our mobile phones. 

 

Is there a application on the phone which has the add-ons available? 

What we basically want is that users can use a checkbox (Add-On) which they can check / add photos to via their mobile phone.

 

Regards,

Mitch

UPDATE (13 Sept 2019) We now support add-on glances in the issue view:

We have started rolling out the ability for 3rd party add-ons with glances in the issue view in Jira to update their add-ons to start appearing within our official apps. So if you have a favourite app glance you want to see in mobile, get in contact with the developer and point them to this blog for instructions on how they can get their add-on glance into the official mobile apps!

ORIGINAL ANSWER:

Hi Mitch,

Our official mobile apps don't currently support 3rd party plugins, however it does sound like you can do what you are describing here without the need for a 3rd party plugin.

If you are just after a checkbox and uploading photos to an issue from your phone, you can do this by adding a checkbox field to the issue type and simply adding attachments to the issue, both of which you can do without any 3rd party plugins and will work with the official Jira apps. You can even add conditions/ validations on a transition to ensure there are attachments added on a transition or that the checkbox field is updated.

Cheers,
