Learn more about using an iPad to access your meeting agendas.
More and more people are starting to use devices like the Apple iPad to access information online. The iPad can be a great tool for many reasons including its ease of use and its long battery life. Board members are finding that the iPad is a great tool to use when preparing for meetings and for use during the meetings because, unlike laptop computers, they find that the iPad can be less obtrusive during the meeting itself.
For this and other reasons, eBOARDsolutions has developed an app for the iPad called Simbli.
The Meetings app for the iPad is available through Apple’s online App Store. The app is a free download. The Simbli Meetings app enables board members, staff, and public to access meeting agendas and packets on an iPad.
