These steps may be slightly different depending on your device and which version of Android you are running. The following steps are a general how-to guide, but if you need more specific information for your device, you can follow one of our in-depth Android Scanner Setup guides.
Signing Into the Google Play Store
It is strongly recommended that you download the VeriScan app directly from the Google Play Store. For a step-by-step guide on signing into the Google Play Store and enabling auto-updates for VeriScan, you can check out this guide.
Downloading VeriScan from the Google Play Store ensures:
- you are always notified when there's an app update.
- you never have to manually download an update again.
- you gain access to other features on your device, such as Find My Device from Google.
If you don't already have an account, you can follow this guide from Google to get started.
If you don't already have an account, or you don't wish to use your personal account on a work device, we suggest you work with your IT team to create a Gmail account for your devices.
Installing the VeriScan Android App
You can download the latest version of the VeriScan app from the Google Play Store.
If the direct link above doesn't work, you can search for "VeriScan Cloud" and look for the blue icon with the letters "VS."
Tap on the green Install button to download VeriScan Cloud for your device.
Once the app is installed, it should appear on your device's home screen. Tap the blue icon with the "VS" logo to launch the VeriScan app.
It may appear as a square, circle, or squircle depending on your device and version of Android.
