The Workflow Execution feature in the AR Genie Work Assist iPad app allows technicians to follow step-by-step guided procedures for maintenance, inspection, or assembly tasks.
Users can run workflows in two modes:
✅ Non-AR Mode – view text, images, videos, tools & tips in a standard interface
✅ AR Mode – overlay steps and media on real-world equipment using Augmented Reality
Once the workflow begins:
You can switch between AR and non-AR mode
If a step includes AR content:
A blue AR icon appears above the mode switch control in the bottom right corner.
We recommend:
✅ Start in non-AR mode
✅ Understand the step instructions
✅ Switch to AR mode only when needed
This provides clearer orientation before using AR visual guidance.
