There are more than 1 million applications available for smartphones and tablets. Among the first applications that everyone probably downloaded was Facebook, Angry Birds, or Pandora.
With more business-oriented applications become available, I was curious to know which apps my fellow PR professionals use on a daily basis and can’t live without. So, I reached to colleagues and sent a query through Help A Reporter Out (HARO).
The most common answers were apps that many of you are probably already using—Facebook, Twitter, TweetDeck, HootSuite, LinkedIn, StumbleUpon, Mashable, Google, and Yelp—so I wanted to focus on the applications that fell outside of this group, some of which were new to me and I have since begun to use. Most of these applications are multi-platform with Android and iPhone, I have listed which are iPad only.

DeviceLock today announced that it has been granted two patents by the United States Patent and Trademark Office for its local synchronization filtering technology. The patented technology allows businesses to control the transfer of data between endpoint computers and locally connected mobile devices such as smartphones, tablets and PDAs, including Windows Mobile, Palm, iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad devices.
An integral part of the DeviceLock software suite since 2007, this patented technology allows security administrators to centrally manage which types of data users can synchronize between corporate PCs and their mobile devices. Protected by US patents US7,899,779 and US7,899,782, DeviceLock’s local sync control technology significantly increases the level of corporate endpoint protection against data leaks. These can be caused by employees connecting personal smartphones or tablets to their office computers through a local interface and by mistake or negligence copying sensitive corporate information to their mobile device.
DeviceLock can recognize and filter numerous data object types for iTunes, ActiveSync, WMDC and HotSync protocols, letting administrators selectively allow or block synchronization of files, emails, email attachments, accounts, contacts, tasks, notes, calendar items, bookmarks, and various media types.
