App Usage and Functionality

What is a Beta App?

Google Defines Early access and Beta Apps as: "Early access apps are apps that haven’t been released yet. Beta apps are newer and more experimental versions of apps that are already released. Early access and beta apps may be less stable than most apps. For example, the app might crash or some features might not work properly."

What does this mean to you?

This means the ThermoGrid Team is working diligently to ensure that every possible robust function in ThermoGrid is also available offline on your Mobile Device. As we release more and more offline functionality, the App will need to be updated and sometimes extra steps may need to be taken to ensure functionality. (Such as Clearing Cache or Data).

You may experience unintended behavior such as crashes or some functionality restriction, Please understand that this may happen with any app in a beta phase and is not isolated to ThermoGrid.
