FAQS

ANDROID/WEB - TROUBLESHOOTING TRICKS & TIPS

I CAN’T SEEM TO SEND OR RECEIVE A MESSAGE ON MY MOBILE DEVICE.

From time to time, messages in TigerConnect may appear to be delayed, or not
appear to be able to be sent or received. This can be a result of multiple
issues. Use the below sections to help troubleshoot message delivery delays for
your Android device

Delete on Read
* Ensure that Delete on Read is not turned on in your TigerConnect account. If
messages you have Delete on Read turned on your account and the user reads
your message, the message will disappear after 60 seconds. This message will
be irretrievable after this time period expires.

Message Lifespan
* If either the sender or the recipient’s message lifespan is set for a short
period of time, the message may not be read. The recommended message lifespan
is 2 days to allow ample time for messages to be read by the recipient.
Please ensure this is set accordingly. NOTE: This is set by your
administrator. Contact your TigerConnect/IT administrator to request a
possible change to this setting on your account.

Wi-Fi Connectivity
* If you are in an area with a strong connection, or are moving within the
confines of a strong Wi-Fi connection (e.g. – your home, or a small office),
it is better to remain connected to Wi-Fi, as it is traditionally a more
reliable connection in cases where the user is stationary.
* If the location in the facility or building you are in is experiencing slower
than normal Wi-Fi, simply wait and move to a location with a stronger Wi-Fi
signal to begin sending and receiving messages.
* Wi-Fi on most mobile devices will turn off when the device’s screen goes to
sleep.
* Lastly, you will also need to “forget” any Public or Guest Wi-Fi networks.
This is also found in the Settings section of your device. Not doing so can
allow you to connect to a possible unsecured network, or a network that
requires further login/authentication/terms of use acceptance, causing
further notification and messaging issues. Your device may be showing full
bars in the WiFi signal, but without further authentication, you may have no
connection to the internet to access TigerConnect.
* Changing the screen timeout period to a longer period of time (5-10 minutes)
can help prolong your connection to Wi-Fi if the 3G/4G/LTE connection is
poor.

Data Connectivity
* 3G, 4G and LTE tower availability varies depending on your area. Check with
your cellular provider directly or on their website to see available network
towers in your area. If there are none, please attempt to connect to Wi-Fi to
receive messages.
* Your phone may be capable of 4G/LTE, but you may not have a strong connection
to 4G/LTE towers. In this case, turning 4G/LTE off may help any issues in
message delays. This is often found under Network (iOS) or Wireless and
Network (Android).

Wi-Fi/Data “Dead Zones”
* These are zones of service where both Wi-Fi and/or data are inaccessible.
These often occur in areas below ground or your device is on the edge of a
Wi-Fi network. You will appear to be connected to data or Wi-Fi, but
the reality is that the signal is not strong enough to connect you to
TigerConnect.

* Your location in a building, as well as the materials the the building is
comprised of can affect your device’s connectivity. If the WiFi network you
are connected to may be travelling through several walls, and can cause
connection issues. If you are even a few floors underground, or are centrally
located inside a large facility, your device’s data connection may
be limited, and you will likely have to rely on Wi-Fi.

Possible Delays in TigerConnect Service

We will make every effort to ensure a seamless experience for users when
properly connected to a data or Wi-Fi network. However, if your device is
connected to a strong data or Wi-Fi connection and you are still experiencing
messaging issues with TigerConnect on the mobile app or the Web Console, please
contact TigerConnect Client Care at the following:
* Phone:
* General Client Care Phone #: 650-564-4722

* Hours of Operation:
* M-F, 5:30 am – 5:30 pm PT

ANDROID – I AM GETTING MESSAGES ON MY MOBILE DEVICE – BUT NO ALERTS.

In order to receive messages to TigerConnect, please ensure that notifications
are enabled correctly on your device. Please attempt the following. If you are
still unable to resolve the issue after attempting these steps, please contact
TigerConnect Client Care at prosupport@tigerconnect.com for further assistance.

Android

There are three places where notifications for TigerConnect for your Android can
be configured. Follow the below directions to ensure successful message delivery
notifications:

Check TigerConnect’s application settings.

1. While logged in to TigerConnect on your mobile device, tap Settings in the
upper right (sprocket icon).
2. Tap Alerts and Data.
* Ensure that Enable Notifications is enabled (will appear to the right and
green when enabled).

* Alternatively, ensure Vibrations is enabled if you wish to also receive a
vibration when you receive a new message notification.
3. Tap Select a Ringtone.
4. Tap to select your desired notification sound (this will automatically save
the selected ring tone for all future message notifications).
1. If you are on an Android 8 or newer tap Manage Notifications, instead
of Select a Ringtone (this option will not appear on Android 8 or newer
devices).
1. Scroll down the bottom of this section and ensure that both Other
and Messages are selected. You can tap either Other or Messages to
select a ringtone.
2. Tap your Android’s back button to return to the TigerConnect
application

When setting your notifications, you do not have to have vibration turned on,
but it will help increase your chances of receiving notification of a message.

Go to your general Android device’s settings.

You can set the native device sound settings in your Android’s Settings to
ensure messages are delivered to TigerConnect correctly.

1. Tap Settings on your device’s Home Screen or Applications folder.
* The Settings app may also be found in your device’s Application folder,
which is typically located in the bottom tray on the device’s home screen.
Once inside the Applications folder, long-tap on the icon to drag the icon
to the home screen for easier access in the future.
2. Tap the setting related to sounds in your settings (this will vary from
device to device and depends on your Android version)
* Within this menu, you can set the following:
1. * Set Device Volume (titled Volume or Volumes)
* Ensure Silent Mode is not enabled.

Finally, ensure that the above settings are set to any level above silent or off
for your device to be able to receive notifications correctly.

Ensure that the device volume is up.

The location of your Android device’s volume button varies depending on the
device. Typically you can find this on the left or right side of the Android’s
case consisting of two buttons (as opposed to the power button which is one
solid button, typically at the top of the device).

When turning the device’s volume down to the lowest setting, Android often lets
you push the ‘down’ volume button an additional time to turn the phone to
‘Silent’. To receive audible sound notifications, please ensure the device is
set to an audible volume to alert you to new messages.

Ensure that any third-party battery-conservation or security applications allow
TigerConnect.

There are a large number of applications available for Android devices to assist
with preserving the device’s battery life. While these applications can be
helpful with older devices, they can limit and even prevent TigerConnect
notifications from sounding even with the sound turned up on the device. These
applications often disable things like notifications and background app
activity, which TigerConnect is reliant upon to deliver notifications from
Google as well as messages to the user’s TigerConnect application reliably.

To help prevent any notification issues for these applications, if they allow
for TigerConnect to be whitelisted, check to make sure that TigerConnect is an
exception to allow notifications and disable any battery saving behaviors. If
there are no options to allow TigerConnect, the application will need to be
uninstalled to allow any further notifications.

I’M STILL HAVING ISSUES, WHO CAN I CONTACT?

In instances where any of the available solutions provided in this FAQ do not
assist you with your issue, you can contact the TigerConnect Client Care team in
the following ways:

* Phone:
* General Client Care Phone #: 650-564-4722

When reaching out, please provide as much detail as possible and be prepared to
provide for further investigation:

* Details of your issue
* First and last Name
* Your organization
* Your facility’s email address and/or your mobile phone number

ANDROID/WEB - WI-FI

DOES TIGERCONNECT WORK OVER WI-FI?

Yes, TigerConnect will send and receive messages over a Wi-Fi network or over
the mobile data connection for mobile devices and if Wi-Fi is available on the
computer with which you are accessing the TigerConnect Web Console or standalone
Desktop Application. It will default to previously connected Wi-Fi connections
first. Unless specifically instructed not to, it is recommended use a
password-protected, secured Wi-Fi network at your place of work as instructed by
your organization’s IT. Your home Wi-Fi should work as well.

Guest Wi-Fi networks and Wi-Fi networks with weak, unreliable connections have
been known to cause message delays. If you feel this is the case, ‘Forget’ these
networks (see below) or turn Wi-Fi OFF on your device. Additionally, navigate to
your device’s settings and turn OFF Show Wi-Fi pop-up. This is recommended and
will keep you from connecting to unintended Wi-Fi networks that may have weak or
unreliable connections, or that require further authentication.

Android – Lastly, it is recommended to “forget” any unauthorized or previously
connected networks on your Android device. This can be found in the
Settings application of your device under Wi-Fi or Wireless Networks

In Settings –> Wi-Fi (tap the Wi-Fi heading, not the ON/OFF switch), then
long-tap (hold for 2-3 seconds) on the desired network you wish to forget and
tap Forget network. If this choice is not available, your device has not
previously connected to this network. No further action is needed.

PIN Lock Durations

TigerConnect PIN Lock has multiple durations, which are set by your
administrator to select the length of time you are required to enter your PIN
after re-entering the application. TigerConnect has the following PIN Lock
durations:

* Immediately
* After 1 minute
* After 5 minutes
* After 15 minutes
* After 1 hour
* After 4 hours

Note: If your organization has a PIN Lock duration longer than Immediately, you
will have the ability to set a more aggressive PIN Lock duration. You will not
be able to set a PIN lock with a duration longer than the minimum set by your
administrator (e.g. – Admin sets a PIN Lock duration of 15 minutes, within the
application, you can set the duration to 5 minutes, 1 minute and Immediately).
Additionally, if you are a part of multiple facilities with separate networks,
for example, Facility A and Facility B, the TigerConnect application will always
assume the more aggressive setting (e.g. – Facility A has a duration of 15
minutes and Facility B is set to Immediately, TigerConnect will assume the
Immediately setting).

ANDROID – WHAT IF I FORGET MY PIN LOCK CODE?

If you have forgotten your PIN lock code, simply tap Log Out or simply uninstall
the TigerConnect app on your device. Once uninstalled, re-install the
TigerConnect app and log back in with your username and Password. You will need
to go back to the Settings menu to set a new PIN Lock code.

Additionally, your organization’s TigerConnect administrator may require a PIN
code for every device that is logged in to TigerConnect. In this case, after
deleting and re-installing the TigerConnect application, you should
automatically be required to enter a PIN on your device. You should be able to
enter a PIN code you have used previously.

ANDROID/WEB - MESSAGING

HOW DO I FIND AND SEND A MESSAGE TO A COWORKER?

The TigerConnect application allows users access to multiple organizations. You
can only message users in the organization that the administrator has added you

2. Tap the ‘magnifying glass’ in the upper right-hand corner to Search for
coworkers.
1. You may be asked to Easily find your contacts. This is only so
TigerConnect can identify existing contacts in your address book with
TigerConnect users in your network. Tap OK to accept.
3. You have two options:
1. Scroll through the TigerConnect user list and tap on the desired user.
2. Tap the magnifying glass again and enter text to search for a fellow

screen, enter the user’s name
2. Click the magnifying glass and enter the desired coworker’s name, and
click their name to enter the conversation.
3. Click on the input box at the bottom of the web console page and begin
typing your message.
4. Once your message is ready, click Send or press Enter on your computer’s
keyboard to send the message.

HOW DO I KNOW I HAVE RECEIVED A MESSAGE?

Android

On Android devices, you will receive a “push notification” on your device to let
you know you have received a TigerConnect message. This comes in the form of an
audible ringtone and a visual notification. For more information regarding
supported Android Operating Systems and devices click here.

* Banner notifications (top of screen)

* Lock Screen Alerts – Version 5.x and newer

New messages can be accessed in the notification bar at the top of your Android
device’s screen, while the screen is turned on, by pulling down from the top of
your device’s screen or tap on the TigerConnect app icon to open the app and
view your new messages.

Repeat Push Notifications

Repeat Push Notifications are a feature of the TigerConnect mobile application
that sends a persistent notification to the user’s device until the message is
read. Repeat Push Notifications do not apply to the TigerConnect Web Console.

When Repeat Push Notifications are turned ON for your account, you will receive
a notification every 2 minutes until the message has been opened on your end in
the TigerConnect application. If the initial notification is sent to the device
after the 2-minute timeout, a notification will repeat 10 (ten) times, every two
minutes, until the message is opened by the recipient.

Delivery Escalations

Delivery Escalation is a Premium Feature of TigerConnect that allows iOS and
Android mobile users in areas of low to no connectivity to receive notification
of new messages via SMS. Delivery Escalations do not apply to TigerConnect Web
Console-only users.

When Delivery Escalations are turned on, an SMS message is sent to the phone
number attached to a user’s TigerConnectc account when they are logged in to the
mobile device only and a message remains in Sent status for 5 (five) minutes.
SMS is used, as messages sent via SMS can be received in cases of low data
connectivity (SMS charges may apply).

Fast Deploy

Messages that are sent from TigerConnect to users that are not logged in to
their TigerConnect are received by a service called Fast Deploy. Fast Deploy is
a secure way to communicate with anyone in your organization’s corporate
network, whether or not they are logged in to TigerConnect. When a user is
logged out of TigerConnect, a secure message link will be sent via email and/or
SMS (either will have to be enabled by an Administrator in their TigerConnect
account to receive a Fast Deploy).

The link can then be opened on your computer’s web browser, as well as any
smartphone with a web browser. This is a great way to be able to send messages
to users that are using Blackberry and Windows phones, which do not have a
native TigerConnect application.

NOTE: While logged out, users can reply to Fast Deploy messages that are sent
directly to them once, however, new messages cannot be initiated until the user
logs into TigerConnect. Additionally, Fast Deploy messages are single-view only.
If the message is viewed from the email/SMS link a second time, they will
receive a message stating the message was previously read.

Web Console

When logged into the web console, you will see a badge in the upper right-hand
corner of avatar within the specific conversation on the right hand side of the
Web Console with the user, as well as in the organization dropdown directly
above the conversation list. The badge will remain there until you click on the
conversation or initiate a response to the user.

HOW DO I KNOW A MESSAGE HAS BEEN SENT?

A message is assumed to be Sent as soon as the user clicks or taps “Send” from
the Web Console or Android app. On the mobile application, if a message is not
successfully sent (typically a result of poor connectivity in the area the
message is being sent), you will see a “Tap to resend” on iOS or a “Failed” in
place of the Sent/Delivered/Read status on Android and Web.

If your Android device is connected to either data (3G/4G/LTE) or WiFi, and you
see Sent in the bottom right-hand corner of your sent message where you normally
see the Delivered or Read statuses, this typically means that the user is not
currently logged in or the user is in a poor connection area.

Keep in mind, if a user is not logged in to the TigerConnect app, their messages
should be delivered by Fast Deploy via email or SMS text message (if enabled by
your organization’s TigerConnect Administrators). These messages are secured
behind a link, and once opened are sent securely on your device or computer’s
web browser. Additionally, if a user is logged in and unable to receive messages
in a timely manner, talk to the TigerConnect administrator for your facility
(typically an IT staff member or office administrator) about Delivery
Escalations or reach out to TigerConnect Client Care to find out more about
Delivery Escalations by contacting the following:

* On TigerConnect: Search for and send a message to the ‘TigerConnect Admin’
user

* Phone:
* General Client Care Phone #: 650-564-4722

HOW DO I KNOW A MESSAGE I HAVE SENT HAS BEEN DELIVERED?

Each message that has been sent will provide you with a status on the bottom
right corner of the message. If the status displays as Delivered, the message
has been sent and received to the device, but the message has not been opened
and its entire contents viewed. When a message has been Delivered, depending on
which platform you are viewing the message, you will be provided with one of the
following notifications in the bottom corner:

Android/Web Console

A Delivered message on the TigerConnect Web Console and in the Android Mobile
App will say the word “Delivered” in blue for the sender of the message only.

HOW DO I KNOW A MESSAGE I HAVE SENT HAS BEEN READ?

Each message that has been sent will provide you with a status on the bottom
right corner of the message. When a message has been Read, you will be provided
with the following notification in the bottom corner of the message:

Android/Web Console

A Read message on the TigerConnect Web Console and in the Android Mobile
App will say the word “Read” in green for the sender of the message only.

WILL A PERSON RECEIVE MY TIGERCONNECT MESSAGE(S) IF THEY ARE LOGGED OUT OR IN A
POOR CONNECTION AREA?

Yes. There are two available methods that help ensure message delivery on
TigerConnect:

Fast Deploy

Messages to users that are not logged into TigerConnect are sent via
TigerConnect’s Fast Deploy service. Fast Deploy is a secure way to communicate
with anyone in your organization’s corporate network, when they are logged into
their TigerConnect account. When a user is logged out of TigerConnect, a secure
message link will be sent via email and/or SMS text. This feature is enabled by
an Administrator at the global Org Settings level or in a user’s TigerConnect
account individually.

The link can then be opened on your computer or mobile device’s web browser.
This is a great way to be able to send messages to users that are using
Blackberry and Windows phones as well which do not have a native TigerConnect
application.

NOTE: While logged out, users can reply to Fast Deploy messages that are sent
directly to them once, however, new messages cannot be initiated until the user
logs into their TigerConnect account on the TigerConnect Web Console/Desktop
Application or iOS/Android mobile application. Additionally, Fast Deploy
messages are single-view only. If the message is viewed from the email/SMS link
a second time, they will receive a message stating the message was previously
read.

Delivery Escalation

Delivery Escalation is a Premium Feature of TigerConnect that allows users in
areas of low to no connectivity to receive notification of new messages via your
device’s phone number through SMS. Delivery Escalation messages do not apply to
TigerConnect Web Console-only users – this feature is mobile-only.

When Delivery Escalation is turned on, an SMS message is sent to the phone
number attached to a user’s TigerConnect account when they are logged in to the
mobile device only and a message remains in Sent status for 5 (five) minutes. An
SMS is then sent, as messages sent via SMS can be received in cases of low data
connectivity.

HOW DO I RECALL A MESSAGE?

Android

While in a conversation on your respective device: Long-tap (hold for
approximately 2-3 seconds) on the message that you have sent and wish to delete.
You will be presented with a list of options; tap Recall.

Web Console

Click on the down-facing arrow on the message you wish to recall (messages you
send will be in grey on the right side of the conversation screen) and click
Recall.

NOTE: After the message has been recalled, it is removed from your device, the
recipient’s device and from the server . Note that unless your organization
utilizes Message Archiving, TigerConnect messages are not retrievable once
expired.

Additionally, messages can only be recalled from both devices by the sender of
the message. In order to remove received messages, you will either need to
delete an individual message, clear the entire conversation (Web Console only)
or wait for the message lifespan to expire.

CAN I FORWARD A MESSAGE TO ANOTHER USER?

Yes. Messages can be forwarded to an individual user, Group or a Broadcast list.

NOTE: This is a feature that is enabled by your organization’s TigerConnect
Administrators. If you do not see the ability to Forward a message, please
contact your local IT Help Desk or on-site Administrator or
supervisor. Additionally, ensure that you are attempting to forward a message
within your organization. If you are in the Contacts organization, forwarding is
not enabled for this network. It is a free-to-use network for anyone with a
TigerConnect account.

To forward a message, do the following:

1. On the message you wish to forward either:
* Long-tap on the message (Android).
* Click the downward-facing arrow in the upper right-hand corner of the
message (Web Console).
2. Tap or click Forward.
3. Search for the users you wish to forward the message to.
1. You can either search for the users manually by scrolling through the
contacts list (Android), or you can type the user’s name in the Search
bar (Web/Android).
2. Tap or click the user’s name.
1. Repeat this as often as needed until all desired users or Groups have
been picked.
2. Tap Next (Android) or click Forward Message (Web Console) to forward
the message to the selected users.

The name of the user the message was forwarded from is included at the top
of the message. For users with multiple organizations: Currently, messages
can only be forwarded within the originating organization. (e.g. Dr. Jones
in Hospital 1 can forward the message to Dr. Smith in Hospital 1, but cannot
forward a message to Dr. Moore in Hospital 2).

WHAT DOES MESSAGE LIFESPAN MEAN?

Message Lifespan is the length of time a message will remain in a TigerConnect
conversation before it is deleted on both the sender and all recipient’s
devices. This applies to individual conversations, Broadcast Lists, Roles as
well as Group messages. For example:

* Your message lifespan is 2 days and you send a message to a coworker at 2:00
PM on Friday.
* Your coworker receives the TigerConnect message to their device, but does not
open the message to mark it as ‘Read’. Your coworker then opens TigerConnect
after 2:00 PM Sunday – the message is no longer visible to them.
* The message will be deleted from your device, the receiver’s device, and
TigerConnect’s servers.

Keep in mind – If the receiver does not open and read the message within the
message lifespan, the message is no longer accessible once it reaches its
expiration. Note that unless your organization utilizes Message
Archiving, TigerConnect messages are not retrievable once expired.

CAN I RETRIEVE AN EXPIRED MESSAGE?

There is no way to retrieve an expired message – it is gone forever unless your
organization has added Message Archiving to their TigerConnect service. Please
contact your local IT help desk, on-site administrator or supervisor to find out
if your organization utilizes archiving. Additionally, feel free to contact the
TigerConnect Client Care team at the following with any questions about
archiving:

* On TigerConnect: Search for and send a message to the ‘TigerConnect Admin’
user

* Phone:
* General Client Care Phone #: 650-564-4722

ANDROID/WEB - DATA USAGE AND BATTERY LIFE

ANDROID – HOW CAN I PRESERVE BATTERY LIFE ON MY DEVICE WHILE USING TIGERCONNECT?

A smartphone’s display is typically the biggest drain on a battery. However,
there are a few things that you can do to help preserve the charge you have.

Auto-Lock/Screen Timeout

A screen that is left on and is not sent into “sleep” mode (turning off the
screen by pressing the phone’s power button), is going to drain battery. In
order to help preserve the life of your battery, set your phone’s settings
accordingly. The longer the time to screen timeout, the more battery will be
drained.

Android devices will vary depending on their operating system version (OS).
Typically, the auto lock can be found under your Android
device’s Settings under Display. Look for a setting that says “Sleep” or “Screen
Timeout”.

3G/4G/LTE and Wi-Fi

Your phone is constantly searching for towers and connections when 3G, 4G, LTE
or Wi-Fi are turned on. You can help preserve battery by turning on Wi-Fi and
connecting to a local wireless network (if available).

If your device is utilizing 4G and LTE, this can drain your device’s battery
faster than 3G. If you notice a significant drain on the battery, consider
turning 4G/LTE off. Your connection may be slower when using more heavy browsing
(image uploads/voice memos) but you will conserve more battery power this way.

GPS

GPS is one of the largest drains on a battery, next to your smartphone’s
display. If you have an app that requires GPS location
(navigation/map/geotagging), your phone will be searching to find a satellite
signal, and that requires a considerable amount of power from your phone’s
battery.

Location of GPS (Location) Settings differs depending on the Android device.
Typically, they are found under Location or Location and Security in your
Settings (typically a gear icon). Once selected, you can deselect any boxes that
involve GPS and Location.

Note: TigerConnect utilizes location services on your device when selecting to
send your location only within a conversation. If you are noticing a significant
decrease in battery life, be mindful of GPS-heavy apps (e.g. – Google Maps,
Facebook).

ANDROID – HOW MUCH DATA DOES TIGERCONNECT USE ON MY MOBILE DEVICE?

The TigerConnect mobile application has been designed to limit battery drain and
data usage for our Secure Messaging customers. Regardless, the more you use the
device, the more you will use your battery and data. If messaging with
TigerConnect is causing you to become more active on your device, you may in
turn notice that your battery life is diminishing faster than you are accustomed
to.

Most users will not notice any extra data usage as each message is around 1Kb.
It takes 1,024 Kb to equal 1Mb. This means you would need to send 1,024 messages
per month to use 1 MB.

If your organization is sharing large files (e.g. – videos, large documents,
audio files) TigerConnect will attempt to compress these. However, it is
recommended that your device is connected to Wi-Fi as often as possible in order
to conserve data as well as to ensure faster, consistent delivery speeds when
uploading files and images.

NOTE: If your device is connected to a Wi-Fi network, TigerConnect will not use
data from your cellular plan. This is especially useful if you have a monthly
data cap.

WHAT DOES DO NOT DISTURB DO?

For TigerConnect, Do Not Disturb is a feature that allows a user to disable
audible and visible TigerConnect notifications for the TigerConnect application
only. Additionally, Do Not Disturb for TigerConnect also provides a custom
‘out-of-office’ message that is sent when a user sends you a message while Do
Not Disturb is on.

It is important to note that no alert will sound on your device for
TigerConnect, however, the user will continue to receive messages to the
TigerConnect application. Please make sure you remember to turn Do Not Disturb
off when you want to receive notifications again.

Note regarding iOS’ Do Not Disturb: Separate from TigerConnect, iOS’ Do Not
Disturb (DND) function mutes all incoming audible and visual notifications. This
applies to notifications from TigerConnect, in addition to regular SMS, email
and phone calls. If you wish to turn off audible and visual notifications for
TigerConnect only, you must do so from within the TigerConnect application.

How to enable Do Not Disturb from your iOS TigerConnect application:

1. Log into your TigerConnect account from your mobile device.
2. Tap Settings.
3. Locate the Do Not Disturb entry, and tap the slider to the right to ON (will
turn Red).
1. After turning Do Not Disturb on, you can enter a custom message in the
field that appears after enabling it. This will be displayed on the
sender’s device with the first message they send to you in a
conversation. Any subsequent messages will not contain the DND message
for the sender.

CAN I SET A CUSTOM STATUS?

Yes. TigerConnect allows you to set a status that will reside below your display
name within one-on-one conversations.

Changes will be automatically saved to your profile, no further action is
required.

HOW DO I SET UP PIN LOCK?

This feature can be used on Apple (iOS) mobile devices. Your organization may
require you to set a PIN upon logging in to TigerConnect. Keep in mind, you may
be unable to change the settings within the PIN Lock, as your TigerConnect
administrator may have the settings locked to prevent further changes to your
account.

Additionally, TigerConnect takes advantage of TouchID in TigerConnect version
5.0.1 and newer. TouchID is available on iPhone 5S and newer, as well as the
iPad mini 3 and iPad Air 2.

To set up PIN lock on your iOS device:

1. Log in to your TigerConnect account on your mobile device.
2. Tap Settings.
3. To the right of the PIN Lock entry, tap the slider to ON.
4. Enter and re-enter (to confirm) your desired 4-digit PIN.

TigerConnect app.

PIN Lock Durations

* Immediately
* After 1 minute
* After 5 minutes
* After 15 minutes
* After 1 hour
* After 4 hours

Note: If your organization has a PIN Lock duration longer than Immediately, you
will have the ability to set a more aggressive PIN Lock duration. You will not
be able to set a PIN lock with a duration longer than the minimum set by your
administrator (e.g. – Admin sets a PIN Lock duration of 15 minutes, within the
application, you can set the duration to 5 minutes, 1 minute and Immediately).
Additionally, if you are a part of multiple facilities with separate networks,
for example Facility A and Facility B, TigerConnect will always assume the more
aggressive setting (e.g. – Facility A has duration of 15 minutes and Facility B
is set to Immediately, TigerConnect will assume the Immediately setting).

WHAT IF I FORGET MY PIN LOCK CODE?

If you have forgotten your PIN lock code, uninstall the TigerConnect app on your
device. Once uninstalled, then re-install the app and log back in with your
username and Password. You will need to go back to the Settings menu on your
device to set a new PIN Lock code.

iOS only: TigerConnect takes advantage of Apple’s TouchID feature. If you have
TouchID enabled on your iOS device (iPhone 5S and newer only, as well as the
iPad mini 3 and newer and the iPad Air 2 and newer), it will automatically
request to unlock TigerConnect with TouchID. If you wish to enter the PIN code,
simply tap Enter TigerConnect PIN. Just as with the PIN Lock code you provide,
if you are having issues with TouchID, simply uninstall the TigerConnect
application, and upon succesfully reinstallation and login you can enter a new
PIN to renable PIN Lock/TouchID.

IOS - DATA USAGE AND BATTERY LIFE

HOW CAN I PRESERVE BATTERY LIFE ON MY DEVICE WHILE USING TIGERCONNECT?

A smartphone’s display is typically the biggest drain on a battery. However,
there are a few things that you can do to help preserve the charge you have.

Auto-Lock/Screen Timeout

A screen that is left on and is not sent into “sleep” mode (turning off the
screen by pressing the phone’s power button), is going to drain the battery. In
order to help preserve the life of your battery, set your phone’s settings
accordingly. The longer the time to screen timeout, the more battery will be
drained.

To change your iOS device’s Auto-Lock time, do the following:

1. On your iOS device’s home screen, tap Settings
2. Tap General.
3. Tap Display & Brightness.
4. Tap Auto Lock.
1. This can be set to 30 seconds, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 Minutes or Never.

3G/4G/LTE and Wi-Fi

GPS

GPS is one of the largest drains on a smartphone’s battery, next to the screen
display. If you have an app that requires GPS location
(navigation/map/geotagging), your phone will be searching to find a satellite
signal, and that requires a considerable amount of power from your phone’s
battery.

Note: TigerConnect does utilize location services on your device only when
sending your location within a conversation. However, if you are noticing a
significant decrease in battery life, be mindful of GPS-heavy apps (i.e. – iOS
Maps). Changing these settings will disable GPS, and will not allow your phone
access to apps that require it.

To disable GPS for specific apps on your iOS device:

1. From the iOS device’s Home screen, tap Settings.
2. Tap Privacy.
3. Tap Location Services
4. From here, select devices that utilize GPS, and disable Location Services
for that app by selecting OFF.

HOW MUCH DATA DOES TIGERCONNECT USE ON MY DEVICE?

The TigerConnect mobile application has been designed to limit battery drain and
data usage for our Secure Messaging customers. Regardless, the more you use
your device, the more you will use your battery and data. If messaging with
TigerConnect is causing you to become more active on your device, you may in
turn notice that your battery life is diminishing faster.

Most users will not notice any extra data usage as each message is around 1Kb.
It takes 1,024 Kb to equal 1Mb. This means you would need to send 1,024 messages

can search for the user quickly by First or Last name.
3. Tap on the input box at the bottom of the conversation and begin typing your
message (A keyboard should appear).
4. Tap Send.

HOW DO I KNOW I HAVE RECEIVED A MESSAGE?

On iOS, you will receive a “push notification” on your device to let you know
you have received a TigerConnect message. This comes in the form of an audible
ringtone and a visual notification.

* App Icon Badges (appears over the TigerConnect clover icon on your iOS’ Home
Screen)
* Banner notifications (top of screen)
* Lock Screen Alerts

New messages can be accessed in the notification bar at the top of your iOS
device’s screen, while the screen is turned on, by pulling down from the top of
your device’s screen and tapping on the available notifications, or tap on the
TigerConnect app icon on your Home Screen to open the app and view your new
messages.

Repeat Push Notifications

Repeat Push Notifications are a feature of the TigerConnect mobile application
that sends a persistent notification to the user’s device until the message is
read. When Repeat Push Notifications are turned ON, a repetitive notification is
sent after the user’s phone AND TigerConnect application are inactive for 2
(two) minutes or longer. If the initial notification is sent to the device after
the 2 minute timeout, a notification will repeat 10 (ten) times, every two
minutes, until the message is Read.

Note: If any message is sent within the 2 minute timeout period, the repeat push
notification does not occur.

Delivery Escalations

Delivery Escalation is a feature of TigerConnect that allows users in areas of
low to no connectivity to receive notification of new messages via SMS.

When Delivery Escalations are turned on, an SMS message is sent to the phone
number attached to a user’s TigerConnect account when they are logged in to the
mobile device only and a message remains in Sent status for 5 (five) minutes.
SMS is used, as messages sent via SMS can be received in cases of low data
connectivity (SMS charges may apply).

Fast Deploy

When a user is logged out of TigerConnect, a secure message link will be sent
via email and/or SMS (either will have to be enabled by an Administrator in
their TigerConnect account to receive a Fast Deploy). The link can then be
clicked and opened within your iOS device’s web browser.

HOW DO I KNOW A MESSAGE HAS BEEN SENT?

A message is assumed to be Sent as soon as the user clicks or taps “Send” on
their iOS device. On the mobile application, if a message is not successfully
sent (typically a result of poor connectivity in the area the message is being
sent), you will see a “Tap to resend” or “Send Failed” message on iOS.

When a message has been Sent on iOS, you will see the word ‘Delivered’ in blue
in the lower right-hand corner of the message.

If you are connected to either data (3G/4G/LTE) or WiFi, and do not see a
message status update at the bottom right-hand corner of your sent message where
you normally see the Delivered or Read statuses, this typically means that the
user is not currently logged in, or the user is in a poor connection area.

Keep in mind, if a user is not logged in to the TigerConnect app, their messages
should be delivered by Fast Deploy via email or SMS text message. These messages
are secured behind a link, and once opened are sent securely on your device or
computer’s web browser. Additionally, if a user is logged in and unable to
receive messages in a timely manner, talk to the TigerConnect administrator for
your facility (typically an IT staff member or office administrator) about
Delivery Escalations.

HOW DO I KNOW A MESSAGE HAS BEEN DELIVERED?

When a message has been Delivered on iOS, you will see the word ‘Delivered’ in
blue in the lower right-hand corner of the message.

HOW DO I KNOW A MESSAGE HAS BEEN READ?

Each message that has been sent will provide you with a status on the bottom
right corner of the message. When a message has been Read on iOS , you will see
the word ‘Read’ in green in the lower right-hand corner of the message. This
assumes that the user has opened the message, and viewed the contents of the
message.

WILL A PERSON RECEIVE MY TIGERCONNECT MESSAGE(S) IF THEY ARE LOGGED OUT OR IN A
POOR CONNECTION AREA?

Yes. There are two available methods that help ensure message delivery on
TigerConnect:

Fast Deploy

Messages that are sent from TigerConnect to users that are not logged in to
TigerConnect are received by a service called Fast Deploy. Fast Deploy is a
secure way to communicate with anyone in your organization’s corporate network,
whether or not they are logged in to TigerConnect. When a user is logged out of
TigerConnect, a secure message link will be sent via email and/or SMS (either
will have to be enabled by an Administrator in their TigerConnect account to
receive a Fast Deploy).

Delivery Escalation

Delivery Escalation is a mobile-only feature of TigerConnect that allows users
in areas of low to no connectivity to receive notification of new messages via
your device’s phone number through SMS.

HOW DO I RECALL A MESSAGE?

To recall a message within TigerConnect for iOS:

1. Long-tap (hold for approximately 2-3 seconds) on the message you wish to
delete until you see a horizontal list of options.
2. Tap Recall.

NOTE: After the message has been recalled, it is removed from your device, the
recipient’s device and from the server. TigerConnect DOES NOT retain any
messages in any form unless Archiving is turned on for your organization. These
messages cannot be retrieved and placed back in the conversation once removed.
Additionally, messages can only be recalled from both devices by the sender. In
order to remove received messages, you will need to delete each individual
message, or delete the conversation from your TigerConnect Inbox.

CAN I FORWARD A MESSAGE TO ANOTHER USER?

Yes. Messages can be forwarded to an individual user, Group or a Broadcast list.

To forward a message, do the following:

1. On the message you wish to forward, hold your finger down on the desired
message for 1-2 seconds.
2. You will be presented with a horizontal list of options, simply tap Forward.
3. Search for the users of which to forward the message.
1. You can either search for the users manually by scrolling through the
contacts list, or you can type the user’s name in the Search bar.
2. Tap or click the user’s name.
1. Repeat this as often as needed until all desired users are selected.
1. Note: you can only select one group at a time to forward a message
currently on iOS.
2. Tap Forward to forward the message to the selected user(s).

WHAT DOES MESSAGE LIFESPAN MEAN?

Keep in mind – If the recipient does not open and read the message within the
message lifespan, the message is no longer accessible after it expires.

CAN I RETRIEVE AN EXPIRED MESSAGE?

There is no way to retrieve an expired message – it is gone forever unless your
organization has added message Archiving to their TigerConnect service. To find
out if your organization is utilizing Archiving for TigerConnect, contact your
organization’s TigerConnect Administrator or TigerConnect Client Care at (650)
564-4722, M-F, 5:30 am – 5:30 pm PT or Sat/Sun, 8:00 am – 5:00 pm PT.
Alternatively, if your organization is utilizing Premium Support, you can
contact us 24 hours a day via your organization’s Toll-Free number.

IOS - TROUBLESHOOTING TRICKS & TIPS

I CAN’T SEEM TO SEND OR RECEIVE A MESSAGE ON MY MOBILE DEVICE.

From time to time, messages in TigerConnect may appear to be delayed, or not
appear to be able to be sent or received. This can be a result of multiple
issues. Use the following sections to help troubleshoot Message Delivery Delays.

Wi-Fi Connectivity
* If you are in an area with strong connection, or are moving within the
confines of a strong Wi-Fi connection (e.g. – your home, or a small office),
it is better to remain connected to Wi-Fi, as it is traditionally a more
reliable connection in cases where the user is stationary.
* If the location in the facility or building you are in is experiencing slower
than normal Wi-Fi, simply wait and move to a location with a stronger Wi-Fi
signal to begin sending and receiving messages.
* Wi-Fi on most mobile devices will turn off when the device’s screen goes to
sleep.
* Lastly, you will also need to “forget” any unauthorized networks. This is
also found in the Settings section of the Device. Not doing so can allow you
to connect to a possible unsecured network, or a network that requires
further login/authentication/terms of use acceptance. Your device may be
showing full bars in the WiFi signal, but without further authentication, you
may have no connection to the internet to access TigerConnect.
* Changing the screen timeout period to a longer period of time (5-10 minutes)
can help prolong your connection to Wi-Fi if the 3G/4G/LTE connection is
poor.

Wi-Fi/Data “Dead Zones”
* These are zones of service where both Wi-Fi and/or data are inaccessible.
These often occur in areas below ground or your device is on the edge of a
Wi-Fi network. You will appear to be connected to data or Wi-Fi, but the
reality is that the signal is not strong enough to connect you to
TigerConnect.

Possible Delays in TigerConnect Service

TigerConnect’s Client Care team can be reached at the following:
* Phone – (650)564-4722
* Email – prosupport@tigerconnect.com
* TigerConnect – TigerConnect Admin user

I AM GETTING MESSAGES ON MY MOBILE DEVICE – BUT NO ALERTS.

During the installation process, Apple (iOS) users will be asked to “accept or
allow” push notifications. Tap Allow. Without notifications enabled,
TigerConnect will not be able to provide audible and visual notifications of new
messages to your iOS (two most recent public releases are supported) device.

If you tapped “Don’t Allow” and wish to enable notifications, please do the
following on iOS:

1. Tap Settings on your iOS Home Screen
2. Tap Notifications (Notification Center on older versions of iOS (Version
7)).

3. Scroll down to the TigerConnect entry and ensure the following are enabled:
* Show in Notification Center
* Tap to select, then choose between No Recent Items or 1, 5 or 10 Recent
Items for each of your applications where Notifications are enabled.
* Sounds
* Badge App Icon
* Show on Lock Screen
* Alert Style: Select either Banners or Alerts.
4. Tap Back to save changes.

You should now be able to receive notifications on your device. Additionally,
ensure that your device is not in Vibrate/Silent mode. If enabled, the vertical
button above the iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch’s volume button will be showing
orange. Your device will not provide you with an audible notification, either a
vibrate, or no sound at all.

IOS - UPGRADES

HOW DO I UPGRADE THE TIGERCONNECT MOBILE APP?

Please check the Apple App Store to make sure you have the most recent version
of Tigerconnect . Upgrading to a new version of Tigerconnect , when one is
available, will allow you access to new features and bug fixes to the
application.

iOS has the option to automatically upgrade applications and can be found in
your iOS Settings (on your iOS device’s Home Screen):

1. Tap Settings.
2. Tap iTunes and App Store
3. Tap the ON button for Apps.

This will allow Tigerconnect and any other apps on your device to be
automatically updated when an update is available in the App Store.

DO I NEED TO LOG OUT TO UPGRADE?

No, you do not need to log out to upgrade your version of TigerConnect.

If you experience any issues once the application has updated, it is recommended
however, to log out and back in to the application. Please contact TigerConnect
Client Care at any of our available points of contact if you have any further
questions:

* TigerConnect : TigerConnect the ‘TigerConnect Admin’ user

* Email: prosupport@tigerconnect.com
* Phone: (650)564-4722

IOS - WI-FI

DOES TIGERCONNECT WORK OVER WI-FI?

Yes, TigerConnect will send and receive messages over a Wi-Fi network or over
the mobile data connection. It will default to previously connected Wi-Fi
connections first. Unless specifically instructed not to, you should be able to
use the primary Wi-Fi network at your place of work. Your home Wi-Fi should work
as well.

Guest Wi-Fi networks and Wi-Fi networks with weak, unreliable connections may
cause message delays. If you feel this is the case, turn Wi-Fi OFF on your
device. Please also go to your device’s settings and turn OFF Ask to Join
Networks. This is recommended and will keep you from connecting to unintended
Wi-Fi networks that may have weak or unreliable connections, or that require
further authentication.

Lastly, it is recommended to “forget” any unauthorized or previously connected
networks. This can be found in the Settings section of your device under Wi-Fi:

To forget a Wi-Fi network on iOS:

1. Tap Settings
2. Tap Wi-Fi.
3. Tap the Guest, Public or trouble Wi-Fi network.
4. Tap Forget Network.

This will prevent your device from automatically connecting to networks that may
cause issues within messaging on TigerConnect.
