Introducing Podio for iPad: The Most Complete Mobile Work Experience Ever

05.09.12 Posted in Featured,Product News by

It’s here, Podio for iPad! A stunning new Podio experience available now in the App Store. The new app brings to the iPad all your workspace activity streams, tasks, contacts and the apps you use to manage projects. That’s a lot, but Podio for iPad is designed to make getting work done as simple as possible, no matter where you are.

To use the Podio iPad app you’ll need a Podio account. If you haven’t got one yet sign up here, it’s free.

Build your own apps and use them instantly on your iPad

Moving from spreadsheets and email to a more social, connected and effective way of working is now easier than ever. The simple, drag ‘n’ drop App Builder– available on the web version of Podio –enables you to create apps to plan, structure and execute work with your team. From today, all these apps will be instantly available on your iPad (along with your computer and iPhone) giving you more flexibility to work they way you want.

One company already taking full advantage of Podio on the iPad is 12 Stars Media, an innovative video production company based in Indianapolis, USA. Check out their video to see how Podio for iPad keeps their team in sync between filming locations, client meetings and the editing room:

   

Now it’s your turn, see what you can do with Podio on your iPad

The Podio iPad app is now available for everyone and it’s free, just search for Podio in the App Store on your iPad and you’ll find us there. Once you’ve tried it we’d really appreciate if you’d let us know what you think by posting a review in the App Store.

We completely re-imaged the look of Podio when building the iPad app. Here are a few of the ways that having Podio on your iPad will enable you to work more efficiently from any location:

    This looks great, I can’t wait for the Android version…

    The iPad app looks awesome! Great work! I’d love to see the Android app get some love though. It seems to be lagging behind the IOS apps pretty hard.

    Saw this pop up in my email and actually got wicked pumped about it. UI looks great!

  • Shep

    When will you let us add files in iPad app like on the web?

  • Moonika Hunt

    Android app would be awsome!

    Congrats, it’s a very good app. It’d be great if we could choose dates with a calendar view, and not just dd/mm/yyyy since its important to know what day of the week you’re assigning a deadline for. Same goes for the iPhone app…

    It really is a great app, big improvement from using it in the browser on iPad.

    BUT it really needs to support full filtering and not just saved filters. Saved filters are fine for normal users, but projects managers, executives etc. almost never need to look up the same thing twice…

    I love the new feel of the new iPad app.

    When will we be able to create new workspaces from the mobile devices?

    and full functional for android apps pls

  • Tony Barlow

    I’m jealous of the iPad users. Android app ought to be next on your priority list.

  • http://podio.com Michael Dean

    Hi Shep, you can add files through the different integrations e.g. Google Drive, Dropbox, etc. and also attach images from your iPad itself. Give me a shout if you need any help with that.

  • http://podio.com Michael Dean

    Thanks Panos, and I’ll suggest that to our team designing the app to see if there’s a possibility to add such a feature.

  • http://podio.com Michael Dean

    Thanks Morten, I see what you mean about filtering and I’m sure that’s something we’ll look at for future versions.

  • http://podio.com Michael Dean

    Cheers Buddy, that’s probably something we’ll look at adding in future releases.

  • http://podio.com Michael Dean

    We’re hard at work on Android, Tony.

    i miss the ability to filter entries.

  • Mark-John Clifford

    Jon,
    I am a Podio fail…I love the app, have used it but need to get some help with what I can really do based on our work. HELP!

  • http://www.facebook.com/ruben.skov Ruben Peter Risgaard Skov

    very nice app! PLEASE do fix the forgotten password issue on your mobile offerings. I am so often stuck on either iphone or ipad because I cannot remember my passwork

  • Anonymous

    New to Podio here. The iphone app works very well, but the iPad app has me a little frustrated. From the task list, I cannot see the associated project with each task without tapping on the task and opening it, it would be great if I could see this information like I can on the iPhone app.

    Another suggestion that would really put Podio over the top would be the ability to filter the task list just like I can filter the project list, or perhaps the ability to “star” specific tasks to implement a GTD-type system. As it is, unless each and every task is assigned a due date, there is no way to reorder or filter the task list. This feature would be at the top of my wish list, as this is the only area that I see Podio really lacking behind the other options out there.

  • Anonymous

    One other really important thing: I cannot see associated tasks when viewing a project. This seems really odd to me, I have no way to see this list on my mobile device (iphone or ipad), I can only see them within the full task list mixed in with all of my other tasks, which I cannot filter by project.

    Goooooooood…stunning indeed! Thank you!

    Now we want the Android Version of this, in a nice developed way!! Why are the Android folks, always the step-children to Apple!!!! But thanks for fixing Nexus 7 Jelly Bean and letting us use it on our tablet!.

    I was looking forward to this iPad app, but on a trip to Africa I found it useless. For the following two reasons:

    1. There is no off-line mode. The whole reason for downloading an app rather than using a web site it that it is available when you are not connected to the Internet. As it is now, as soon as I am in the bush, Podio asks me to log in… Doh.

    2. I don’t have access to my work space contacts – the ones I have entered. Only contacts who are permitted to access the work space. So if I have to look up a contact on Podio, I must have downloaded the respective vCard before leaving my desktop/laptop.

    Once you have a version that supports working off-line and synchronises items when it is on-line, and access to work space contacts you will have a very powerful application.

    I know that there are issues with synchronisation but I am sure many of those issues were also dealt with at Zyb ;-)

  • Anders Åkvist

    Yeah, but I think you know what he means, don’t you? It would be very neat to be able to use the “Open in…” button to send an e-mail attachment, web file or whatever to Podio.

  • playcode

    Android?!?!?!?
    come on, please not! :)

    In corporate environment this type of app can be very useful. Individuals can customize app depending upon there usage. Great app it is!
