Starting from the Rome version ServiceNow mobile has
updated the mobile terminology. The updated wording helps you better understand which items you
are configuring within a mobile app, how the configurations affect the on-screen view, and how
the items relate to one another.
Note:  
The name changes apply from Rome and later versions. All versions earlier than Rome use the earlier terminology.

## Terminology changes for the Rome version {#terminology-changes-rome__section_hgf_nl1_lpb}

The table compares the terminology used from the Quebec version and earlier
with the replaced terms used from the Rome version and later.
