What is Device Mode?
Device Mode is designed for clinics where multiple team members use ScribbleVet on the same workstation or device (for example, exam room computers or shared tablets).
When Device Mode is enabled, users can quickly switch between members of the same practice without logging in and out each time. This allows teams to get started immediately and keeps workflows efficient in busy clinics.
How Device Mode Works
One device can be shared by multiple users in the same practice
Team members select their name and begin working right away
No password is required when switching between users
Notes, recordings, and patients are saved under the correct user profile
This is ideal for:
Shared exam room computers
Clinics using mounted microphones
Teams with rotating doctors or technicians
How to Use Device Mode (Step by Step)
Step 1: Enable Device Mode (Admins only)
Log into ScribbleVet on the web
Go to Settings > Practice
Enable Device Sharing / Device Mode for the practice
Step 2: Enter Device Mode on a shared workstation
Click the user icon in the top-right corner of the screen
Select “Device Mode” from the dropdown menu
The device is now ready to be shared
Step 3: Switch between users
From the Device Mode screen, select your name
Start recording or creating notes immediately
When finished, another team member can select their name and continue working
Important Notes
Device Mode should only be used on shared clinic devices
All notes and recordings are still correctly attributed to each user
