For years, optical shop software meant a computer on the counter, a big monitor and a technician to install it. Today most shop owners in India run their business from a phone or tablet. Their staff are comfortable on a touch screen, a tablet costs a fraction of a computer, and it fits on any counter.

That is why Opticdigit has a native iPhone/iPad app, an Android app, Windows and Mac desktop apps, and a web app at app.opticdigit.com, with offline billing on every plan. Bill on a tablet at the counter, on the shop computer, or on both, and check your shop from your phone.

Why tablet billing makes sense for an optical shop

Low cost. A tablet costs far less than a computer setup.
Small counter, small device. A tablet takes almost no space.
Staff already know touch screens. Almost no training needed.
Check your shop from anywhere. See today's sales and pending deliveries from home or while travelling.
Works with Bluetooth printers. Print bills and labels without cables or a PC.

What a good optical billing app must do

Not every billing app is built for opticians. Before you choose, check that the app can:

Save prescriptions properly (SPH, CYL, AXIS, ADD, PD for both eyes), not as text inside the item name.
Create GST bills with the right rate on each item.
Print to a Bluetooth thermal printer directly.
Scan or print barcodes for frames and accessories.
Send reminders automatically and share bills on WhatsApp.
Keep billing offline when the network drops, and sync later.
Sync with the web, so the owner can check everything from another device.
Work in your language.

How other platforms handle mobile

From our research on optical and billing software in India:

General billing apps have excellent mobile apps, but no prescription fields or optical workflow.
Optical-specific software increasingly offers an Android billing app that syncs with a web system, which is the right model.
Older optical software is still desktop-first, and the mobile app, if there is one, only shows reports.

The shops that grow fastest use one system across phone, tablet, computer and web, all showing the same live data. Opticdigit covers all of these.

Opticdigit on Android, iPhone, desktop and web

Apps for every device. Create GST bills, take advances and collect balances in the Android app, the iPhone/iPad app, the Windows or Mac desktop app, or the web app at app.opticdigit.com.
Offline billing on every plan. Billing continues when the network drops, and bills sync when you are back online.
Prescriptions saved with each customer. Every visit builds the customer's eye history.
Bluetooth printing built in. Print receipts on a Bluetooth thermal printer straight from any Opticdigit app, on every plan.
Barcode support. Scan a barcode label to add the item to the bill, and create barcode labels for frames and accessories.
SMS and WhatsApp. On every plan, share any bill on WhatsApp from your shop's own number in one tap, and send automatic SMS bill confirmations and order-ready messages. From Premium, bills go out on WhatsApp automatically, and eye check-up, contact lens reorder and offer messages are sent for you.
Same data on every device. Your data is in the cloud at app.opticdigit.com, so the owner can check from anywhere.
10 languages. Staff can use Opticdigit in the language they prefer, from Hindi and Marathi to Kannada, Tamil, Bengali or Punjabi.
Free feature updates. New features we add to Opticdigit reach existing customers at no extra cost.

A simple counter setup

You do not need a desktop computer to run your optical shop on Opticdigit. A typical setup is:

one Android or iPhone/iPad phone or tablet with the Opticdigit app (or a Windows PC or Mac with the desktop app) for billing,
one Bluetooth thermal printer for bills and labels.

You use a device you already own; no Opticdigit plan includes a tablet. Premium Pro and Pro Ultra include a 2-in-1 bill and barcode printer, set up and yours to keep. On Basic and Premium you can pair a Bluetooth thermal printer you buy yourself.
