Get around the ARMS mobile app: tabs, screen order, and switching carriers.
Cedar Mobile is the field app for ARMS. Use it to work inventory, receive interchanges, and run trains from a phone or tablet.

Open ARMS Mobile and sign in with your Cedar account. If your company uses SSO, follow the mobile SSO guide.
The tabs
When you open the app, five tabs sit along the bottom of the screen. The selected tab is highlighted in yellow.

More
Everything else, including Interchanges, Profile, and screen order
The Inventory tab is selected. Each row is a station. Tap the star to favorite a station — favorites move to the top of the list.
Scroll the station list, or use the search box at the top to find a station by name.
This guide covers Inventory, Interchanges, and Trains. Shipments and Warehouse appear when your carrier has those products turned on.
Change the tab order
Open More → Configure screens and drag the screens into the order you want. Use this to keep Interchanges on the tab bar if you receive cars every day.
Switch carriers
If you work more than one railroad, change the active carrier from Profile.
