Monolith Mobile
Access cases and evidence, capture evidence information and photos, manage chain of custody, and document your work from a phone or tablet.
Monolith Mobile brings common case and evidence workflows to your phone or tablet, allowing you to work with Monolith away from your workstation.
The app is available for iOS, iPadOS, and Android and connects directly to your Monolith environment.
Download Monolith Mobile
Monolith Mobile is available from:
Apple App Store for iPhone and iPad
Google Play for Android phones and tablets
An active Monolith account is required to use the application.
For a visual overview of the mobile application, see the Monolith Mobile product page.

Access Cases and Evidence
Use Monolith Mobile to review cases and evidence while away from your workstation.
You can:
View cases
View evidence items
Search for cases and evidence
Review case and evidence details
Filter for records assigned to you
Open individual records to review additional information
This can be useful during evidence intake, field work, court, laboratory movement, or other situations where a desktop workstation is not convenient.
Add Evidence Items
New evidence items can be created from Monolith Mobile.
This is particularly useful when evidence is physically in front of you during intake or collection.
Scan Evidence Information
Use your device camera to scan:
A physical item
A device label
An About This Device screen
An existing image from your photo library
Monolith can use information from the image to assist with populating evidence details.
Review the information before saving the evidence item.
Capture Evidence Photos
Use your phone or tablet to photograph evidence and upload the images directly to the appropriate evidence item.
Photos added through Monolith Mobile synchronize with the evidence item and case in your Monolith environment.
This can reduce the need to photograph evidence separately and transfer the images later.
Manage Chain of Custody
Monolith Mobile supports chain of custody workflows from your mobile device.
Use the app when evidence is being received, moved, released, checked out, or transferred through other supported custody actions.
Chain of custody activity completed through the mobile app synchronizes with Monolith.
Collect Digital Signatures
Monolith Mobile includes a digital signature workflow for chain of custody.
A signature can be collected directly on the phone or tablet while an evidence transfer is taking place.
This can be especially useful during evidence intake or release when the person involved in the custody transfer is physically present.
Work With Notes
Monolith Mobile allows you to work with case and evidence notes away from your workstation.
You can:
Create case notes
Create evidence notes
Review existing notes
Edit existing notes
Changes synchronize with your Monolith environment.
Phones and Tablets
Monolith Mobile adapts to the device being used.
Phones are well suited for mobile workflows such as:
Evidence intake
Evidence photography
Scanning
Chain of custody
Digital signatures
Quick case and evidence review
Notes
Tablets provide additional screen space and a larger Monolith experience for users who want to work more extensively from a mobile device.
