New VoiceThread Mobile App

Do you use VoiceThread in your course?  If so you might want to check out the new VT Mobile App.  It’s been redesigned and could give your students more flexibility when using it.

Here is more information from VoiceThread:

Updated look and feel

A clean new interface makes navigating through your VoiceThreads a pleasure! We’ve streamlined workflows and added more features to help the app work just like the desktop version.


Brand new infrastructure

We’ve re-built the back end from the ground up to create a faster and smoother experience. Media loads more quickly and consistently, a greater variety of files can be uploaded from your device, and audio and video recording is much more reliable.

Better organization

Sort your VoiceThreads in any way you’d like, including a new “most active” category that makes your current VoiceThreads available at a glance. We’ve improved searching, browsing your courses and groups, and account management.


Simpler sharing

We’ve brought the mobile sharing workflows in line with what you already use on your desktop, making collaboration easy even on the go.

Accessibility

Version 4 adds improved closed caption displays, better compatibility with mobile screen readers, and the option to translate the interface into multiple languages.

The VoiceThread Mobile App is available for both Android and Apple products.

I hope your first week of “hunkering down” went well. Have a great weekend!!
