How Verizon, Time Warner, Comcast and other members of the National Cable and Telecommunications Association can save time and money with the release of Snappii 2.0.

Every day, field staff for cable and telecommunications companies head into the field to install new equipment to activate, upgrade or repair cable television, digital phone and broadband account services for new and existing customers. Regardless of which service or customer type, each one requires work orders, lists of equipment used, a customer signature and, in some cases, even a payment to be made.

SnAPPii is changing the Way Businesses Approach App Development

The majority of enterprise mobile application development projects are long,costly initiatives that require a cross-functional effort within the organization.  Collaboration amongst the key stakeholders (IT, development,and the line of business) is absolutely critical for the success of the project.  The problem is the traditional sequence approach to the development life cycle (design, build, test, deploy, update, and analyze)does not lend itself to collaboration and rapid development.   In many cases, the line of business stakeholders who are focused on the user-experience are included late in the development process after the application has been coded and is deemed ready for testing.   Changes to the requirements and any scope creep at this stage require recoding efforts often across multiple platforms (iOS, Android) further delaying deployment.

The Advantages of Snappii 2.0 Release. Part 2. How to Customize Cell and Detail View in the Advanced List

Today we will take a close look at how Advanced List view can be customized and show required buttons as well as images according to your app idea. To start making it you should upload a Data Source first. The spreadsheet you are uploading needs to contain fields for each button you will later use in cell and detail view.
