MobileDemand Recognized as a Leader in iOS Mobile Dimensioning: What It Means for the Future of Warehousing

At ProMat 2025, VDC Research spotlighted MobileDemand as a leader in iOS-based mobile dimensioning, marking a major shift in how warehouses and distribution centers can capture essential product data. With the xDIM Mobile Dimensioning solution now running on Apple iOS devices, the barriers to adopting mobile dimensioning have significantly decreased—ushering in a new era of efficiency, accuracy, and cost-effectiveness in logistics. Adding to this innovation, the xScale S200 Bluetooth® scale enables instant, on-the-spot weight capture, further streamlining warehouse operations by integrating real-time weight data with mobile dimensioning for a complete master item data solution.

Why This Matters

The logistics and warehousing industry is at an inflection point. With rising labor costs, increasing automation, and evolving freight classification standards (such as the NMFC shift to a density-based system in July 2025), accurate dimensioning is more critical than ever. Traditional fixed dimensioning systems are costly and immobile, making them less viable for fast-paced, high-volume warehouses.

By enabling iPhones and iPads with LiDAR sensors to perform accurate mobile dimensioning, MobileDemand is removing the need for dedicated hardware while maintaining the precision and reliability required for warehouse optimization, freight classification, and space utilization. (NOTE: xPIM is available for download on iOS and Android Devices, xPIM+, the mobile dimensioning feature is coming soon!)

The Impact on Warehouse Operations

1. Instant, On-the-Go Dimensioning

   • No need for fixed stations—workers can scan and measure items at any location within a facility.

   • Perfect for last-mile delivery, slotting optimization, and reverse logistics, where quick decisions matter.

2. Lower Costs, Faster ROI

   • iOS-based solutions eliminate the need for expensive standalone dimensioning devices.

   • Companies can leverage existing Apple devices already in use for scanning, inventory management, and order fulfillment.

3. AI-Enhanced Precision & Automation

   • With AI-powered measuring and background removal features, MobileDemand’s software ensures precise data capture without manual input errors.

   • This leads to reduced chargebacks and compliance issues when shipping parcels.

4. Seamless Integration with Warehouse Systems

   • The ability to integrate with WMS, PIM, and ERP systems allows organizations to maintain real-time inventory accuracy.

   • Enhances data visibility across departments, enabling better decision-making.

The Future of Warehouse Technology

VDC Research’s recognition of MobileDemand highlights a growing shift toward mobile-first warehouse solutions. As automation expands, mobile data capture and AI-powered tools are becoming essential. Companies that embrace flexible, software-based dimensioning will gain a competitive edge by eliminating inefficiencies and improving overall accuracy. Those who adopt these technologies now will be better positioned to streamline operations, cut costs, and stay ahead in an increasingly data-driven supply chain.

By leading the way in iOS mobile dimensioning, MobileDemand is setting the stage for a more agile, cost-efficient, and data-driven supply chain. With increased accuracy, reduced costs, and improved workflow efficiency, this technology will reshape how warehouses operate—one scan at a time.
