Getting started on NestForms should be quick.

But for many teams, logging in on a new phone or tablet can slow things down. Passwords get forgotten, login details get typed incorrectly, and time is lost before any work begins.

That is where Linked Devices comes in.

This new feature lets you connect your mobile device directly from your NestForms Profile page using a QR code. Scan it, approve the matching code, and the app opens ready to use.

Simple.

Why use it?

The biggest reason is speed.

Many NestForms users build forms on desktop but complete them on mobile. That might be a site inspection, a snag list, a handover form, or a health and safety audit.

Linked Devices shortens the gap between creating the form and starting the work.

Instead of:

  • Installing the app
  • Typing your email
  • Entering your password
  • Troubleshooting login issues

You simply scan and approve.

Already logged in? Open the app directly

Linked Devices also supports direct login to the Nestforms app when the user is already signed in on their mobile device within the browser.

In the QR Code popup, you will see the button to direct login. Link will open the NestForms app directly and will log you in.

This makes it even quicker to move between the website and the mobile app.

Where does it help?

It is especially useful when:

Setting up
Connect your device in seconds instead of sending login details.

Replacing a phone or tablet
Moving to a new device is quicker without resetting passwords.

What are the benefits?

Faster onboarding

New users can start collecting data almost immediately.

Fewer login problems

Less typing means fewer mistakes.

Better security

The matching code must be approved on the website before access is granted.

Less downtime

Field teams can get straight to work.

A small feature that saves time

Linked Devices removes one of the most common setup frustrations.

It is a simple feature, but for busy teams working between desktop and mobile, it makes access quicker, cleaner, and easier to manage.

Sometimes the best improvements are the ones that save time before the work even begins.
