New native iPad app from LoopUp lessens conferencing stress.
LONDON, 20 NOV 2012: LoopUp, the provider of simple, pain-free conference calls and online meetings, today announced the launch of its new app for the iPad, further underlining its status as the company of choice for better everyday meetings.
This new app coincides with the enterprise trend towards an increasingly mobile workforce, bring your own device (BYOD), and the explosion of tablet sales.
With LoopUp’s iPad app, available as a free download from the Apple App Store, meeting hosts are able to:
- Quickly send out accurate conference invites
- Receive a notification when their first guest joins the call
- Know who’s on and who’s speaking
- When ready, join by having LoopUp call out to a phone of their choice (no need to remember dial-in numbers or access codes)
- Easily manage the call, muting distracting background noise and adding missing guests
- Add billing codes and record the call for later use
“This iPad app follows the success of our smartphone apps, which were designed to give users better meetings when they’re away from their desk and indeed even at their desks,” said Michael Hughes, co-CEO of LoopUp. “We’ve seen great usage of these smartphone apps, on over 60% of calls, and we’re now excited to offer the same experience to iPad users.”
The iPad app is the latest addition to the LoopUp product suite, which includes a Web app, smartphone apps (iPhone, Android and BlackBerry) and an add-in for Outlook. For more information, go to our support section.
