How it works - Overview

  • The Sign2Phone app is available from the Apple App Store and Google Play Store store and must be installed on the mobile device.
  • The app is started on the device by touching the Sign2Phone icon.
  • The app is "paired" with the SignDoc application via the network.

  • While the app is open, clicking on a signature field within the SignDoc application will initiate a signature capture dialog.

  • The signature is captured and transmitted in real-time to the application which places it in the document being signed.

Sign2Phone connectivity

  • In order for Sign2Phone to work, network connectivity is required between the computer where the signature is captured and the mobile device.
  • This connectivity is achieved via WiFi i.e. both the computer and the mobile device reside on the same network.
  • Alternatively, a mobile network can be created and connectivity can be achieved via USB Cable whereby the mobile device must have the mobile personal hotspot functionality enabled.
