If you haven't already, the Marlin Workshop Connect can be downloaded from the Google Play and Apple App stores and installed on any compatible device.

Once installed, the Marlin Workshop Connect mobile app will open on the login screen which can be used to connect to Marlin systems and log in with as a user who is enabled as a technician for the relevant branch.

Connecting to Marlin Tyre and Mechanical Workshop Software

To connect Marlin Workshop Connect to a Marlin system, scan the relevant QR code or enter the relevant Company URL.

A Marlin system's QR code and Company URL can be viewed by selecting Help > About from the menu bar.

The About Marlin Workshop pop-up window will open showing the relevant QR code and Company URL.

To scan the QR code using the Marlin Workshop Connect app, tap on the QR Code icon at the far right of the Server URL textbox, which will activate the device's camera (if available).

Once a QR code is scanned, the associated URL will appear in the Server URL textbox.

The Server URL can also be entered manually, if required.

Once a valid Server URL has been entered, it will be remembered for future logins.

The login page can then be used to log different technicians into the Marlin Workshop Connect App.

Logging into Marlin Workshop Connect

Once a valid Server URL has been entered, the login page can be used to log different users and technicians into the Marlin Workshop Connect App.

Use the Username and Password textboxes at the top of the login window to enter the technician's credentials as configured in the relevant Marlin system.

To log into the selected system, click on the blue Login button at the bottom.

If the user only has access to a single branch, they will be automatically logged into that branch.

If the user has access to multiple branches, their first login on a device will prompt them to select a Branch.

Switching Branches

Users with access to multiple branches can switch between them by tapping on the hamburger icon (three lines) at the top right to open the menu and selecting the Change Branch option at the top.

Language Selection

The app display can be changed to other supported languages by tapping on the hamburger icon (three lines) at the top right to open the menu and selecting the Change Language option (second from the top).

Lock Screen

If a device using Marlin Workshop Connect is locked, or the app is minimised, users will be prompted to re-enter their Marlin password upon returning to the app.

Alternatively, if the device uses a passcode, fingerprint or face id as its screen lock type, users will be given the option to use this security method, rather than entering their Marlin password, upon returning to the app.

Logging Out of Marlin Workshop Connect

To log out of Marlin Workshop Connect and return to the Login screen, open the in-app menu and select the Logout option at the bottom.
