Overview

PPM supports the mobile web client since version 9.32. To improve mobile user experiences, it introduces a new version in 9.54.

If you already use the mobile web client, after the upgrade to 9.54, you still use the mobile web client old version by default. If you start to use the mobile web client in 9.54 or later, you use the new UI by default.

Your PPM administrator decides whether you use the old version or the new version (by setting the parameter Modify server configuration parameters).

To differentiate the new version from the old version, we name the new version as PPM for Mobile.
