Screen Display

The Costpoint Mobile T&E user interface has different menus, which you access by tapping .

When you access Costpoint Mobile T&E on a mobile phone running on any supported operating system, the Landscape mode is turned off, and your mobile phone screen is locked to Portrait mode. However, if you access the application on a tablet computer, you can switch your screen orientation.

Note: When you use Costpoint Mobile T&E on a mobile phone running on iOS, you can rotate the screen Landscape mode if you are using the date picker on the Timesheet or Expense Reports screen. This is not an issue with Costpoint Mobile T&E.

Screenshots and Screen Recording

Screenshots and screen recordings are hidden and disabled in Costpoint Mobile T&E on both Android and iOS devices.

Android

Screenshots and screen recordings are disabled by default. Behavior may vary depending on the device.

  • Pixel devices: Taking a screenshot results in a black image.
  • Samsung devices: Taking a screenshot or recording the screen displays the message This app doesn’t allow screenshots or Can't record screen due to security policy.

To enable screenshots and screen recording for 15 minutes during your current application session, tap the Screenshots/Recording Temporarily Allowed option on the Settings screen.

iOS

Screenshots are hidden when switching applications, but you can still take screenshots and record their screen.

App Switching

When you are switching applications in Costpoint Mobile T&E, screenshots are hidden on both Android and iOS devices. A placeholder screen—gray on Android and the launch screen with a Timesheet icon on iOS—is displayed to prevent exposure of sensitive information. On some older iOS devices, a solid color may display instead, while certain Android devices may display the logo on a white screen in specific cases.
