What is a requirement before running your model-driven app on a mobile device?

Before running your model-driven app on a mobile device, it is essential to publish the app. Publishing makes the app available for users by activating it in the environment. Without publishing, users will not be able to access the app through mobile devices, as the app must be recognized and registered in the system first.

Creating views, deploying security roles, and configuring sales territories are all important components of the overall app development and user experience, but they are not prerequisites for actually getting the app to run on a mobile device. While those tasks can enhance app functionality and user access, the immediate step of making the app live through publishing is crucial for mobile accessibility. Thus, ensuring the app is properly published allows for seamless use across any device, including mobile.
