Get the app

Open the "Chrome" app and type "server/" (needs to have the slash at the end on a tablet that has never connected to the server before) in the address bar. You should get a status page.

Tap Download client app. Tap the filename next to "Latest version", download it, and install it. When the download is complete, you can pull down the notification area or open the "Downloads" app to find the downloaded file and tap it there to install it.

You may want to go to your list of apps, long-press on the Buendia icon, and drag it to your home screen.

Configure the app

Open the "Buendia" app. You will most likely get an error message saying that the password is wrong. Tap Settings or CHECK to go to the settings, tap OpenMRS password, and enter the OpenMRS password you were provided. Use the back button to get back to the app.

At this point the user list should load up. Each user is represented by a square. Initially there is only one user, "Guest User". Tap it; the app should then sync its data with the server (patients, locations, and so on).

After the sync has finished, you'll see the main screen of the app, with a list of locations and zones. You're good to go.
