Lyve software / hardware solutions

How you authorize and manage Lyve Mobile Array depends upon your use case and the hardware associated with your project.

Lyve Mobile Link has a dedicated web app for sharing Lyve Mobile Arrays on the network. Use a computer on the same network as Link to run the web app in your preferred browser.

Lyve Client and Lyve Mobile Array CLI are used for Lyve Mobile Arrays directly connected to a macOS, Windows, or Linux host. These apps have dedicated installers specific to the host. You cannot use either app to access shares on the network provided by Link.

If you are moving Lyve Mobile Arrays between Link and other hosts, you may need more than one app. For example, the Link web app for the Link connection and Lyve Client on a Windows or Mac host.

The table below provides a simple summary of Lyve software and hardware solutions based upon general use cases.
