iPhone App
Posted: 29 Dec 2014 12:17 PM
Is there an iPhone App for eKYROS? We have a new iphone 24 hr number for clients and would love to be able to access eKYROS from an app while on the phone with a client.

Hi ccpcbanquet,

We don't have a version that is optimized for use on a phone, but you can access your CenterPiece account from your iPhone since Safari is a supported browser. I know we have some centers using it on their tablets/iPads successfully. I assume this would be mainly for scheduling appointments?

Thanks,

Amy

Hi ccpcbanquet,

Can you help us understand what workflows you would like the iPhone app to support? Due to the small form factor, it is tough to get all of CenterPiece working on a phone. However, we are open to supporting certain scenarios that make sense. Any input would be much appreciated! Thanks!

This is the only tread that I saw about an app for phones and other devices. Let me know if there is another one that I can follow or that answers my question.

Our medial director just asked if there was an app so he could quickly log on to review and sign off on the ultrasound scans and reports. I could not remember hearing about one so I checked the apple store and could not find one. Is this something that you are considering?

I have logged on with my phone if I needed to access client info while away from my office or a computer, but it is a bit cumbersome to click on the tabs as well as try to see what I am looking for. Are there plans to update this in the future? I understand it may not be as easy as it sounds, just checking.

Thanks!

Hello Angie,
We do not provide a downloadable app, you are able to easily access CenterPiece via your web browser.
With our last update we have completely Mobile Optimized CenterPiece so it is easier to navigate on a mobile device such as a phone, tablet, iPad, etc. with the collapsible menu, task pane, larger buttons for clicking with your finger, etc. With that said we are a large line of business (LOB) application with many data entry forms and large reports. Using a small mobile device such as a phone will never be as optimized as viewing on a device with a larger screen such as a tablet, laptop or desktop.

Blessings,
Ashleigh

Hi Angie!

Our goal is to continue to enhance CenterPiece so that viewing information works well on a iPhone. We do have plans to enhance the view of client, donor and staff files. This is an ongoing work in progress. Just keep in mind, due to small form factor, iPhone will never give you a great *data entry* experience that you get today when using tablet, laptop of desktop. It's just a trade-off. Hope that makes sense.

The bubble with portal replies doesn't show up on an iphone screen. I read through this forum, and I understand why it's not really a goal to have an app, but having notifications that there's a portal message would be a great feature (if there were an app). In the meantime, making that bubble clearly visible at logon would be very useful!

Hi BekahNPRC,

I'm not sure what you mean by 'bubble'. If you are referring to staff members getting notified when someone sends a message from the client Portal, we have discussed sending a SMS Text notification to staff from CenterPiece. In CenterPiece you would be able to configure a list of staff members to receive the notifications. Staff could then login to CenterPiece from their mobile device and reply. Does that make sense?

That would be a great solution! Yes, when I login to centerpiece on my computer, what looks like a "bubble" to my 42 year old eyes with the number of new messages inside it (or beside it, I can't remember) shows up beside my name on the right side of the screen. On the mobile version, the "bubble" doesn't show up. I have to actually navigate to the portal page, and click to show new messages only. If centerpiece isn't going to create an app, having the "bubble" more visible, indicating a new message, on the initial screen would be helpful. HOWEVER, i love the idea of configuring a list of staff members to receive SMS notification.

Dear BekahNPRC,

The portal app displays a bubble (or badge) with count of new messages on the home page. This is the first screen the client see when they login.

CenterPiece displays a bubble (or badge) at the top of the app next to your login. The count is the number of new messages received from client that need to be reviewed.

I'm not sure what you mean by CenterPiece creating an app. It is an app.
The bubble in CenterPiece is on EVERY screen at the top right.

Hope that makes sense.

The bubble is not on my iphone screen when I log on even though I have a new message. I tried it just now. I can send a screen shot if you'd like. I can see it on the desktop site, but I cannot see it on the mobile site.

(Also the original post was asking for an iphone app, so that's what I was referring to by centerpiece app)

We can't add a bubble to your iPhone screen. It doesn't work that way. Please call us if you would like to discuss more. 469-293-3079

As i mentioned earlier, we can send a text notification to your iPhone so you'll see new text bubble on your iPhone messenger app. You'll then have to login to centerpiece to read the message.
