+Android Measurement Instrument SupportThe Android version of ColorTRUE supports the ColorMunki Display, and the i1Display Pro. Other instruments such as the ColorMunki Smile and the i1Pro 2 are not supported. The reason that we are limited in our ability to support hardware on the Android platform is two fold:
- The Android version of the app relies on the phone or tablet for power. As a result only very low power consumption devices may be used,
- The only devices that can connect to Android hardware are devices that are known as Human Interface Devices, or HID for short, HID devices do not require a driver to connect to, or interact with a computer or mobile device. Things like mice, keyboards, the ColorMunki Display, and the i1Display Pro meet this criteria. Our other hardware devices do require a driver to work correctly. The Android platform does not support the ability to use drivers.
