Labhandy

Labguru Mobile App, also known as Labhandy, is the official mobile companion to the Labguru laboratory management platform. Designed for researchers, lab managers, and scientists working in laboratories, manufacturing floors, greenhouses, and other field environments, Labhandy brings a curated set of mobile-optimized features to iOS and Android devices. The app enables users to access, record, and manage lab activities directly from their smartphone or tablet, bridging the gap between physical and digital workflows without requiring a return to a workstation.

Labhandy is built around four core principles: efficiency, accuracy, cost-efficiency, and security. Its mobile-optimized design reduces the number of steps required to complete common tasks, maintains real-time updates on storage and consumption, keeps all data centralized and encrypted within the user's Labguru account, and helps researchers stay focused on individual tasks by eliminating context switching.

Key Capabilities

• Quickly access and review critical information from protocols and experiments on mobile or tablet devices.
• Submit structured data through mobile-optimized forms.
• Scan barcodes — including linear barcodes, QR codes, and Data Matrix codes — for efficient inventory and sample tracking.
• Upload images and data directly to your Labguru account and experiments.
• Perform equipment maintenance and calibration logging from the field.
• Print on-demand labels using portable Brady printers without returning to a workstation.
• Automatically sync completed tasks and recorded data back to the Labguru account when an internet connection is available.

Stock and Sample Management

• Manage samples and stocks from any location, including laboratories, manufacturing floors, and greenhouses.

View Mode for Experiments and Protocols

• Access experiments and protocols in View Mode (Beta), a secure read-only format that ensures data integrity and prevents accidental edits.
• Review research anytime and anywhere from a mobile or tablet device.
• Quickly browse protocol and experiment details during active work at the bench or in remote locations.
• Designed to streamline forms and simplify repetitive tasks or activities in hard-to-reach locations.

Equipment Maintenance

• Log equipment events such as calibration, maintenance, and usage directly from a mobile device.
• Schedule maintenance events using the equipment calendar.
• Maintain peak equipment performance to ensure quality results and minimize downtime.
• Ensure accuracy, reliability, and functionality while simplifying equipment upkeep.

Print on Demand

• Print labels on-demand via integration with Brady portable printers for clear, reliable sample identification.
• Reduce labeling errors and rework by eliminating manual processes and outdated information.
• Integrate labeling directly into existing workflows to save time and speed up turnaround.
• Label samples anywhere in the lab or field without needing to return to a central workstation.

Labhandy supports both Labguru's cloud and private domain environments, allowing users from different organizations or regions to log in securely using their designated Labguru environment. The app follows Labguru's security protocols, including encrypted data transmission and role-based access control. It is available for download on both iOS (App Store) and Android (Google Play) devices.
