Medic Mobile Gateway Configuration

Medic gateway supports Android 4.1 and above. To have it up and fully working, follow the below steps.

  • Install the app from the playstore from this link or by searching "Medic Gateway" on the Android Playstore.

  • Open the app. You will get a Warning:medic-gateway is not set as the default messaging app on this device if you are installing the app for the first time or afresh. Select HELP ME CHANGE and agree to the folloup system prompt about changing the default messaging app.

  • If you're configuring medic-gateway(v1.00 and above) for use with hosted medic-webapp, with a URL of e.g. https://myproject.dev.medicmobile.org and a username of my_gateway_user and a password of topSecret, fill in the settings as follows:

Instance name: myproject [dev] (if https://myproject.app..., select 'app') Username: my_gateway_user Password: topSecret

N:B If you're configuring medic-gateway(v 0.62 and below - recommended if you have a non-medicmobile hosted instance) you will need to use the generic build of medic-gateway - links to download are here. Find out the value for webapp URL from your tech support then configure as below WebappUrl: https://my_gateway_user:[email protected]

Power Saving

Care should be taken to disable all power-saving modes on the phone, as these may affect medic-gateway's ability to check in with the server regularly.

On different versions of Android, power saving options may be found in different places. Sometimes they will be per-app, and sometimes phone-wide. Some places you might find the settings:

  • WiFi > MORE > Keep WiFi on during sleep > ALWAYS (increases battery usage)
  • Smart Manager > Battery > App Power Saving > OFF, or
  • Smart Manager > Battery > App Power Saving > Detail > Medic Gateway > Disable
