Managing devices in Pickscan

Add, rename, and remove the Android devices and pack stations connected to your Pickscan account. Each device connects with a 6-digit activation code.

Devices page overview

The Devices page shows all Android devices and pack stations connected to your Pickscan account. A summary strip at the top shows:

  • Active mobile apps — devices currently in use.
  • Active pack stations — browser-based packing stations currently in use.
  • Offline > 24h — devices that have not been active in over 24 hours.
  • Fleet — total device count with a breakdown of mobile and pack station types.

Each device appears in a table with its name, type (Handheld or Pack station), activation code, status, and last activity.
