The “Mobile UI” feature enables users in the “Adjuster” role to utilize a mobile-friendly version of ClickClaims providing them with limited access to the application in order to update certain aspects of their assigned claims including policy limits and reserves, claim dates, activity notes, documents, and tasks. This version of ClickClaims is compatible with all common devices such as desktop computers, laptops, tablets, and mobile phones (iPhone and Android). This article provides a comprehensive review of this feature.
Important: Users with the "Mobile Only" setting enabled are only able to access this version of ClickClaims when logging into the system. Standard ClickClaims features and functionality are not available.
Configuring “Mobile Only” Access:
To affiliate a user with the mobile-friendly version of ClickClaims, a special permission setting must be enabled within their user profile by a user associated with the “Owner”, “Administrator”, and/or “Human Resources” user role.
- Navigate into the “User Profile” tab of the user’s record from the “Users” menu bar button in ClickClaims.
- Check the box beside “Mobile Only” under the “Special Permissions” section and then click the button to retain the change.

- IMPORTANT: The “Mobile Only” special permission setting is not compatible with the “Read Only Access” setting. Users with the “Mobile Only” setting enabled are able to edit the claim information available to them from all mobile pages authorized by your company.
Navigating the Mobile User Interface:
- From the chosen device, navigate to the browser and enter the ClickClaims URL in the address bar.
- Mobile users do not need to download or install a mobile app. They have direct access to the mobile-friendly pages as soon as they log in to ClickClaims based on the “Mobile Only” setting.
- Enter your username and password into the appropriate fields of the “Log In” page and click the button.
