The popular project management platform, Basecamp, finally has an official iOS app.
Formerly only available through mobile web and third party Android and
iOS apps, Basecamp already has a massive amount of users . Basecamp
already manages over 8 million projects. With their new iOS app, it is
easy to imagine that number quickly growing.
The new app is
reportedly fast, user friendly, and well designed. Current users of
the web platform will be pleased by the design, which has the same look
and feel as the app. The design of the app is intended to enhance
productivity. Basecamp has taken their already easy to use design and
made it much simpler for people with iPhones.
The new app is also free. Now iPhone users will be able to easily use
their phones to access all of the project management services offered
by Basecamp. If you’re not already familiar with Basecamp, it was
launched in 2004 by 37 Signals. With Basecamp, users can check off
tasks on to-do lists, attach files, have discussions with coworkers, and
make and read comments. Even without the app, Basecamp was one of the
most popular productivity platforms, particularly for small businesses.
The app will help Basecamp to continue their reign over the
increasingly competitive market for productivity management.
Additionally, the iPhone app works
with Basecamp Personal. Basecamp Personal was released in January, and
targets individual users. Whereas the primary user for Basecamp is
small businesses, Basecamp Personal allows individuals to pay a one-time
fee of $25 to purchase a Basecamp project, instead of the regular
monthly subscription. The release of Basecamp Personal dovetails nicely
with the release of the new iOS app. Although not available yet, an
Android version is expected to eventually be offered as well. The new
iOS app is now available at the App Store.
