The [Activities] section in the mobile application is synchronized with the primary bpm’online application and can be used both offline and online (Fig. 1).
Tasks can be displayed either as a virtual organizer or a drop-down list. In the calendar mode the tasks which you are responsible for, and those in which you were added to [Participants] detail, are displayed. In the list mode only the tasks which you are responsible for are displayed.

Calendar mode
In calendar mode, tasks are displayed in a virtual organizer. The calendar area is divided into days. The date and day of the week are displayed in the heading of each day column. The current day is highlighted.
Depending on the size of your mobile device screen, the default calendar is displayed for the current day or for the current week. If necessary, you can change the display period of the schedule.

For mobile phones: in portrait view, the schedule is always displayed daily and in landscape view it is displayed weekly.
The current time is indicated with an orange line.

In the left side of the calendar area time intervals are displayed.
