Equipment Management App

The equipment app for the person standing at the machine

Torgix for iPhone and Android is the field half of the platform. Scan a tag and the machine opens. Check it out and the location is stamped on the record. Run the inspection where the equipment is, instead of writing it up later from memory.

Free to install. Included with Torgix, with unlimited users at every tier.

What a phone can do that a desk cannot

Most equipment software assumes someone will type it up later. The details that decide what a machine really costs are the ones that get lost between the yard and the office: which machine, where it went, what the meter read, what was wrong with it. Six things in the Torgix app exist only because the phone is already in the hand of the person who knows.

Scan a QR or barcode tag

The round scan button sits at the bottom right of every screen. Point it at a Torgix tag and the app opens that machine. No searching a list of a thousand units for the one you are standing next to.

Read a VIN with the camera

Open an asset, tap Edit, then Scan beside the VIN field. The camera reads the barcode VIN off the machine ID plate and fills it in, instead of someone squinting at a greasy plate and transposing two digits.

GPS stamped on check-out

Complete a check-out and the device position is attached to the record, so you know where a machine was when it left the yard. Location is read at that moment only, never in the background.

Inspections at the machine

Run the inspection standing at the equipment, with photos attached to the fault as you find it. A defect logged where it was seen beats a defect remembered at five o'clock.

Face ID and fingerprint sign-in

Turn it on once and the app unlocks with the device biometric instead of a password and a two-factor code. Lose the phone and an administrator revokes that device in about a minute.

Reminders on the device

The app schedules a local notification for anything still checked out after three days, so tools stop quietly disappearing onto jobs nobody remembers sending them to.

When the signal drops, the work does not

Equipment lives where coverage is worst: basements, quarries, tunnels, the back of a yard behind forty feet of steel. Torgix is a live platform, so with no connection at all there is nothing to load. What the app does fix is the common case: the page is already open, the crew fills it in, and the signal dies before submit.

Complete a check-out or check-in with no connection and the entry is held on the device. You will see "No signal. Saved on this device, it will send automatically when you are back online", and later "Sent 1 entry that had been saved on this device." Nobody has to remember to re-enter it, and if the first attempt did reach the server the replay is rejected harmlessly rather than creating a duplicate.

This is deliberately limited to check-out and check-in today, because those two are safe to replay. Queuing every form in the product would mean silently retrying things that should never be retried automatically.

The same Torgix, split across two places

The app is not a cut-down version with a handful of features. It is the same account, the same fleet, the same records, shaped for a different moment.

On the phone, at the machine

  • Scan a tag and open that unit
  • Check equipment in and out with location
  • Log hours, fuel and meter readings
  • Run inspections and attach photos
  • Report a fault where you found it

In the browser, at the desk

  • True cost per machine and per hour
  • Preventive maintenance schedules
  • Work order planning and parts
  • Warranty claims and compliance dates
  • Reporting across the whole fleet

Both halves are included. Pricing is by fleet size with unlimited users at every tier, so putting every mechanic and operator on a phone costs nothing extra. See pricing.

Getting your crew on it

There is no separate signup. Users do not create accounts in the app; an administrator provisions them in Torgix and they sign in with those credentials.

  1. Install it. Free from the App Store or Google Play.
  2. Sign in. The same Torgix account they use in a browser. The fleet is already there.
  3. Print your tags. Torgix generates a QR label for every asset, ready to print and stick on the machine. Once tags are on equipment, scanning replaces searching.
  4. Turn on Face ID. Under Settings, so nobody is typing a password with gloves on.

Mobile app questions, answered

Is there a Torgix app for iPhone and Android?
Yes. Torgix is free to install from the App Store and Google Play. Sign in with the Torgix account your employer already provides and your fleet is there.
Does the equipment management app work without signal?
Check-out and check-in do. Complete one with no connection and the entry is held on the device, then sent automatically when the signal returns. A duplicate is rejected harmlessly if the first attempt did reach the server.
Can the app scan equipment QR codes and barcodes?
Yes. The scan button sits at the bottom right of every screen. Point it at a Torgix QR tag and the app opens that machine. The camera also reads the barcode VIN off a machine ID plate and fills the field for you.
Does Torgix record where equipment was checked out?
If you allow location access, check-out, check-in and inspections record where they happened, and the record links through to the spot on a map. Location is read at that moment only, never in the background. Deny access and everything still works without the stamp.
Can crews sign in with Face ID or a fingerprint?
Yes. Turn it on under Settings and the app unlocks with the device biometric instead of a password and two-factor code. An administrator can revoke a lost device under Admin, Device sessions, which signs it out within about a minute.
Does the app cost extra?
No. The app is free to install and included with Torgix. Pricing is by fleet size with unlimited users at every tier, so putting the whole crew on their phones costs nothing more. See pricing.
