Downloading User Interface assets will force the Mobile POS application to download images and other graphical assets from the Maitre'D Back-Office to allow them to be displayed on the Mobile POS application.
If you choose not to download User Interface assets, the Mobile POS application will still be perfectly usable. However, buttons which normally have icons or images on a regular POS will simply not have images on the Mobile POS application.
