Top 5 iOS Business Apps
Over the years, smartphones have become more and more crucial to the running of a business. Business mobiles now offer a wealth of apps that allow you to work more efficiently and effectively, as well as away from the office. Business mobile plans have evolved over the years, offering the full package of benefits such as minutes and data to keep your business mobile and adaptable.
App developers are also key here, helping to make things nice and easy for us with innovative and intuitive mobile apps to help you run your business successfully. We share our top 5 iOS apps for business here:
Dropbox
If you aren’t already taking steps to access your files away from the home, this is the perfect app to help you get it done. Dropbox isn’t just accessible on the iPhone app, but on many different operating systems. Dropbox provides free data storage, with more available at a cost. Dropbox are serious about security, making it their highest priority by implementing many levels to protect you and your businesses’ data.
Concur
Initially created as an app to drive down the price of travelling for businesses, Concur expanded to become an incredibly useful tool for the tracking and monitoring of expenses. The app saves expenses, will create various expense reports and allows you to approve items across the world. The developers at Concur have eliminated the need for accounts to be monitored in one place, and done away with the need to shuffle through receipts. This app is accessible even in airplane mode, and allows you to take photographs for those ‘just in case’ moments.
Social Blend
Marketing is an important part of business, especially in an age where most people are connected to social media in one way or another. This app allows business owners to stay connected to all these networking sites from one app to keep on top of updates, control posts and keep those customers informed. This app supports Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Youtube with hopes to include Flickr, Vimeo and others as the app continues to grow in size and strength.
GNEO
There are plenty of to-do list apps out there that do exactly what they say on the tin. Out of all the productivity apps out there, it turns out that there is a diamond in the rough! This list app does a lot more than just lists, and utilises a calendar function to add another dimension to your everyday working list. Tasks can be grouped into different ‘notebooks’, which can be split up and moved across each other to present your data and tasks in far more useful ways than most to do list apps on offer. Tasks can be synced between iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch and the Cloud GNEO.
Apple Pay
Our last recommendation is Apple Pay, for several reasons. It’s first useful to your business because of the payment methods it allows you to use. Security is at the forefront of everyone’s mind, but no one more so than those in business. Already MasterCard, Visa, and American Express have signed up in support of the app, with other partners signing up frequently. Many businesses already use wireless payment methods and the list of companies which are beginning to use the Apple Pay technology is long. It’s expected that a whole host of businesses will follow suit, so why shouldn’t you be one of the first?
