Device Name

The device name is the name of your device that identifies it on the backend system. The device name is referred to as dispatch target in the backend. The Access App creates exactly one dispatch target entry per account.

Initial Device Name

After the fist registration is completed, the Access App will create a device name.

The device name is not the one that the user provided in the operating system settings. The format of the default device name depends on the operating system:

Android Default Device Name
 Android <manufacturer name> <phone model name> <date>
iOS Default Device Name
 iOS <phone model> <date>

<date> is used to generate a unique name (for a given account the name of the dispatch targets must be unique in the backend). The date format used is dd MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss.

Examples
// iOS
iOS iPhone 14 17 Aug 2023 14:31:00
// Android
Android Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 Pro 17 Aug 2023 14:31:00

Changing The Device Name

After the first successful registration, the device name can be queried and changed in the Settings screen of the Nevis Access App.
