Dashboards provide a single place to monitor the current state of your business. Use the Power BI mobile apps to view and interact with your dashboards on any device.
Before you begin
Mobile apps are designed for viewing and interacting with dashboards, not creating them. Before you can view dashboards on your mobile device:
- Sign up for a Power BI account if you don't have one.
- Create dashboards or connect to existing Power BI apps in the Power BI service at https://www.powerbi.com.
Once you have dashboards in your Power BI account, they automatically sync to the mobile apps.
View and interact with dashboards
Download the mobile app for your device and sign in to get started.
Open a dashboard
- From the home screen, tap a dashboard to open it.
- Yellow stars show which dashboards are favorites.
Work with dashboard tiles
- View tiles: Swipe up and down to see all tiles in the dashboard.
- Interact with tiles: Tap any tile to open it in focus mode and explore the data.
- Mark favorites: Tap the star icon to add a dashboard to your favorites.
- Share dashboards: Tap Invite or the ellipsis menu (...) to invite colleagues to view your dashboard.
- Navigate back: Tap the arrow next to the dashboard title to return to your workspace.
View dashboards in different orientations
Portrait mode: By default, tiles appear in a uniform size and stack vertically.
Landscape mode: Rotate your device sideways to see the full dashboard layout as it appears in the Power BI service. You can pinch to zoom and pan to navigate different areas.
Tip
If you own a dashboard, you can create a custom phone view in the Power BI service to optimize how it appears in portrait mode on mobile devices.
