  • You deleted and re-installed the app – If you delete, then re-install Imprivata ID on the same mobile device, you must re-enroll the app before you can use it again.

  • The app was deleted automatically – Some mobile devices include a feature that automatically deletes apps that it thinks you're not using. If this happens, you must re-install Imprivata ID and re-enroll the app before you can use it again.

NOTE: Imprivata ID has no measurable impact on the most popular consumer devices. You will experience less than 3% overall battery use from the Imprivata ID app. If your device system settings show higher power usage, please contact your help desk.

Imprivata ID is using too much data
