Smart TeamWorks 5 Workspace Host, App account - 5 year subscription - TW-CA-5

Product Overview

SMART TeamWorks App Account 5-Year Subscription (TW-CA-5) is a per-user cloud subscription that provides a named user with access to the SMART TeamWorks companion app for five years. It allows individuals to connect their personal devices — phones, tablets, or laptops — to SMART Board sessions, view and annotate shared content, and collaborate from their own screen during meetings. Each TW-CA-5 license covers one named user and is typically paired with a room license (TW-SW or TW-CR series) to give personal device access to participants who need to interact from their own screen. The 5-year term provides the lowest annual per-user cost of the app account tiers.

Product Description

The SMART TeamWorks companion app extends the collaboration experience from the SMART Board display to individual participant devices. Users with an active app account can connect to a room session, annotate content displayed on the board, contribute to the whiteboard canvas from their own device, and view shared materials on their personal screen simultaneously with the room display.

TW-CA-5 is a named-user license — one account is tied to one individual. Organizations deploying SMART TeamWorks across a workforce can purchase app account subscriptions in volume to ensure every regular participant has full interactive access during meetings, not just the ability to share a screen to the board. This is particularly relevant in training environments, design reviews, and any session where multiple participants need to annotate or contribute simultaneously from their own devices.

The app is available on iOS, Android, Windows, and macOS, covering the full range of corporate and personal devices in most organizations. At 5 years, TW-CA-5 is the most cost-efficient app account option for users expected to remain active in the organization through a full planning cycle. It pairs with any TW-SW or TW-CR room license deployed on a compatible SMART Board.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the TeamWorks App Account provide that a room license does not?

A room license (TW-SW or TW-CR) activates collaboration features on the SMART Board display itself. An app account (TW-CA) gives an individual user access to the companion app on their personal device, enabling them to annotate, contribute to the whiteboard, and view content from their own screen during a session.

Does every meeting participant need a TW-CA-5 license?

Only participants who need to interact from their personal device — annotating, contributing to the whiteboard, or viewing content on their own screen — require an app account. Participants who simply view the board or share content to the room display may not need a dedicated app account license.

Can one TW-CA-5 license be shared between multiple users?

No. TW-CA-5 is a named-user license tied to a single individual. Each active user who needs app account access requires their own license.

What happens when the 5-year subscription expires?

Access to the companion app features associated with the account deactivates at the end of the subscription term. A new subscription must be purchased to restore access.

Is TW-CA-5 compatible with all SMART Board models?

TW-CA-5 works with SMART Board sessions running TeamWorks room software (TW-SW series) or TeamWorks Cloud Room (TW-CR series) on compatible SMART Board MX, MX Pro, GX, and Pro series displays.

What devices can the companion app run on?

The SMART TeamWorks companion app is available on iOS, Android, Windows, and macOS.
