Setting up InnoVint (desktop app) on an iPad or tablet
We recommend saving the InnoVint desktop browser app (the one you would normally use on your desktop computer) to your tablet home screen the first time you open it. Read on for more instructions!
iPad
Open cellar.innovint.us in your Safari browser, and save it to your iPad home screen the first time you open it (we do not recommend Chrome for iPads). This allows you one-tap access to your login page and provides a clean, full-page view of InnoVint’s platform. Here's how to do that in 3 easy steps:
1. Open InnoVint's cellar platform in Safari: https://cellar.innovint.us
2. Tap the share icon (
) in the upper right, then tap “Add to Home Screen”
3. Tap “Add” in the upper right of the second dialog box that appears:
Success! InnoVint is now saved as an icon on the home screen of your iPad,
giving you one-click access to the app.
Open the app! You'll notice that there is no browser header,
giving you more space to work.
WARNING: The cellar.innovint.us website will not load on iOS 8 or older. Update the iOS on your iPad to update Safari.
Other tablets
Open cellar.innovint.us in your Chrome browser, and save it to your tablet home screen the first time you open it. Saving the webpage to your home screen allows you one-tap access to your login page and provides a clean, full-page view of InnoVint’s platform.
Using InnoApp on an iPad or tablet
If you do not want to utilize the full desktop app on a tablet, InnoApp is optimized for ALL mobile devices, including iOS and android tablets. Utilize InnoApp's offline functionality and optimized scanning on your tablet too!
Go to https://mobile.innovint.us and follow the instructions to add the app to your tablet.

Generally, every iOS & Android device from the last 5 years is supported as long as you update it. More specifically, this should be Android 7.0 or higher with the latest version of Google Chrome (for Android devices) and iOS16 or above (this means the last 6 years of apple devices can run it: iPhone 8, iPad 5 and newer).
FAQ
Q: Can I use InnoVint on an Android tablet?
A: Yes. The InnoVint desktop browser interface is available through an internet browser. You will need to reference specific instructions on how to save a web page to the homescreen on your Android tablet.
Q: When should I use an iPad/tablet?
A: All tablets, including the iPad, are a powerful way to access InnoVint’s main cellar platform (cellar.innovint.us). Tablets allow the same functionality and interface as the Innovint version that you access in Chrome on your laptop or desktop computer. They're a great tool if you're walking around the cellar or out and about and want access to every piece of data, and tablet cameras will allow you to use vessel QR code scanning too!
Q: What are some ways to best utilize the iPad?
A: Just to name a few…
- Received a last minute lot of fruit? Receive and process it at the crush pad on the iPad
- Assigning a last minute work order? Create and assign them from the iPad
- Taking physical inventory? While walking the floor, adjust your volumes on the iPad
- Want to tag some barrels? Use the Manage Vessels button and scan your QR codes
- On the go and want full access to inventory and reporting? Reference the iPad
Q: The iPad is sensitive to my touch. Sometimes when I'm scrolling through a list a link clicks and I'm taken to a new page. Do you have any suggestions here?
A: The iPad reacts to quick touches. We recommend when you put your finger on the screen to scroll down a page, to hold it there for at least a second before pulling it off quickly. That way the last place your finger was won't register as a selection.
Q: How do I change my iPad orientation?
A: You can switch your screen into the horizontal orientation for ease of use. Here's how to rotate the screen on your iPad
Make sure that Rotation Lock is off:
- On an iPad with iOS 12 or later, or iPadOS, swipe down from the top-right corner of your screen to open Control Center. Then tap the Rotation Lock button
to make sure it's off. - On an iPad with iOS 11 or earlier, swipe up from the bottom edge of your screen to open Control Center. Then tap the Rotation Lock button to make sure it's off.
- Tapping the Rotation Lock button again will turn it red and lock your screen in one orientation
If you don't see the Rotation Lock button , check to see if your iPad has a side switch. If you have an iPad with a side switch, you can set the side switch to work as a rotation lock or mute switch.
Go to Settings > General. Under Use Side Switch To, select the option that you want.
Q: How do I see my entire Vineyard Dashboard on a tablet?
A: Larger feature screens such the Dashboard and Vineyard Dashboard pages are scrollable from left to right allowing users to see the entire screen on the iPad. Simply hold one finger down on the screen and swipe right or left to see another part of the Dashboard.
