Installing SSL Certificates on Android

Install the self-signed certificate for Dermi Atlas Professional on Android. To obtain the .crt file, follow the download steps in the SSL Certificate Setup guide. The file downloads as dermi-atlas-professional.crt.

Note: Steps may vary slightly depending on Android version and manufacturer.

1. Transfer the dermi-atlas-professional.crt file to the device.
2. Open Settings.
3. Search for "Certificate" or go to Security => Encryption & credentials.
4. Tap Install a certificate.
5. Select CA certificate.
6. Browse to and select the dermi-atlas-professional.crt file.
7. Confirm the warning by tapping Install anyway and name the certificate if prompted.
8. The system will confirm installation.

Verification

Note: On Android 7.0 and later, certificates added to the user store are not automatically trusted by Chrome or by all apps, and a persistent "network may be monitored" notice may appear. If a browser still reports the connection as not private, HTTP access remains available on a trusted local network, or the certificate may need to be installed at the system or root level on a device that supports it.

Navigate to the HTTPS URL of the Dermi Atlas Professional instance (e.g., https://192.168.1.100:15045). If the certificate is trusted, the browser loads the page without security warnings and displays a padlock icon.

Important Notes

• The certificate must be installed on each device used to access the instance over HTTPS.
• The certificate is issued for a specific host IP, so the host should use a static IP address; a changing host IP breaks HTTPS and requires regenerating and reinstalling the certificate. See Configuring a Static IP Address for Dermi Atlas Professional.
