Overview

Indeemo is mobile-first and we recommend that respondents use the Indeemo app for the best experience. 

However, we recognise there may be times when you want respondents to complete tasks on desktop instead. Indeemo offers desktop functionality to support this.


Desktop Browsers

General use: Respondents can complete their Indeemo tasks on desktop using any browser (steps below).

Screen recording: If a task requires desktop screen recording, respondents must use Google Chrome.


Partial Desktop Tasks

It is possible to have respondents complete only some tasks on desktop while completing the rest on mobile.

  • For example, you might assign a desktop screen recording task alongside photo or video diary tasks completed in the app.
  • A sample task template for desktop activities is available below (you can include your own wording and steps).


Full Desktop Use (No App)

If you want respondents to complete all activities on desktop, there are a few important considerations:

  • Respondents will not receive push notifications.
  • They will only receive email notifications when new tasks are available.
  • They may miss the real-time responsiveness and convenience of the mobile app.
