The Profound UI Mobile Client allows users to access information stored on an IBM i server through the use of an iPhone or iPad. IBM i data can be retrieved, updated, and/or integrated with native device features, such as the camera for photo uploading. Once connection details are supplied, all IBM i data access is in real time.
