In order to make the most out of Proxyclick, you will need two main pieces of hardware:
1. an iPad, and
2. a tablet holder
Note: If you require your visitors or contractors to wear a physical badge while in your location, you'll also need a printer.
Our recommended devices
As a part of our due diligence, we test different devices to ensure the best possible experience when using our kiosk app. This includes collecting feedback regularly from our users. Here are some of our learnings:
1. Apple iPad
Proxyclick is compatible with any iPad running the latest 3 versions of iOS. (For example, if the current iOS is 14, an iPad that is compatible with iOS 12, 13, and 14 would be compatible with Proxyclick). However, maintaining the latest version of iOS ensures access to the latest Proxyclick features.
You can click here to confirm if your existing iPad is compatible. On average, a brand-new iPad will be compatible with Proxyclick for approximately 3-5 years.
Our recommended device for experience, durability, and screen size is the base model iPad 7th Generation. It features a 10,2" screen and a sleek design with a very reasonable starting price for the 32GB model.
Tip 💡 If you will only be using the device for Proxyclick, the 32GB storage option is enough to efficiently run our application.
2. Tablet holder
At Proxyclick, we use Bouncepad as our main provider of tablet holders. They're focused on delivering premium, fit-for-purpose kiosks. Normally, delivery only takes 2 - 5 business days.
Depending on your needs, we recommend one of these three options:
