Desk Control™ App

Connect your LINAK Desk Panel DPG with your iOS or Android mobile device, or to your desktop PC. Auto-connect, receive motivational notifications, and have statistics with overview to help utilise the office desk’s adjustment function more actively – and ultimately improve work habits.

Desk Control™ App

By downloading the LINAK® Desk Control™ App, desk users come one step closer to changing their prolonged and often unhealthy sitting behaviour. The app is developed for users of electric sit-stand desks, equipped with either of the LINAK® DPG Desk Panels DPG1M, DPG1B, or DPG1C.

Via Bluetooth® wireless technology, the app allows the users to connect their desks either to their iOS or Android mobile devices, or to their PC (Windows 10). Once the app is installed, friendly reminders will help the user to change position frequently, while on-the-fly statistics show daily achievements.

As well as adjusting desk height, the user can also store favourite positions in the app, thus improving ergonomics by using the optimal work heights – whether sitting or standing.
The LINAK Desk Control™ App is designed to help the user build a healthy routine by reminding him/her to use the sit-stand function during the working day.

The free app comes in multiple languages and is available for three different platforms:

  • iOS for iPhones and iPads
  • Android for Android smartphones and tablets
  • Microsoft® Windows 10 for PCs
 

Download for Windows*

*Only works on Windows 10 version 17763.0 or higher
