TigerConnect Clinical Collaboration Platform – Standard Eliminates Sender’s Remorse with New Mobile Messaging App

New app brings unprecedented control and social features to mobile messaging; lets people recall misdirected texts

SANTA MONICA, CA – June 15, 2011 – TigerConnect Clinical Collaboration Platform – Standard, the only mobile messaging platform that gives people complete control over their conversations, today has launched a new iOS application that combines the social nature of group messaging with TigerConnect Clinical Collaboration Platform – Standard’s signature control features. The new iPhone app gives the sender complete control over their messages in the group and one-to-one conversations, even down to the ability to recall a message at any time. Users can create unlimited groups of recipients, each with different privacy control settings, such as the ability to define the lifespan of a message and prevent messages from being forwarded. The app is based on TigerConnect Clinical Collaboration Platform – Standard’s belief that social sharing should be possible without sacrificing privacy, and that individual control is the key.

“Our digital footprint grows with every post we make and every message we send. With traditional mobile messaging, the sender relinquishes control of their message the minute they press send. That message lives on forever on other people’s phones and on the many servers it passes through on its journey. At TigerConnect Clinical Collaboration Platform – Standard, our mission is to give that control back,” said Jeffrey Evans, TigerConnect Clinical Collaboration Platform – Standard CEO and co-founder. “We turned the notion of control on its head, letting the sender decide who can see a message, prevent it from being forwarded, and determine how long it lives. We also hope the new message recall function will prevent some of those ‘Oops, I just sent that I-hate-my-job text to my boss by mistake’ moments.”

With 5 trillion text messages sent in 2009[i] and the number climbing year over year, text messaging is one of the fastest-growing forms of digital communication. Yet, it is also the least managed, creating an environment where the chance of private messages being made public is only getting greater. With TigerConnect Clinical Collaboration Platform – Standard, people can now share their personal thoughts, data, and pictures freely in one-to-one or group conversations.

TigerConnect Clinical Collaboration Platform – Standard’s new mobile messaging application enables people to:

  • Create and manage groups easily: Create new groups and add or delete individuals from groups with one simple and intuitive drag-and-drop. TigerConnect Clinical Collaboration Platform – Standard’s group messages have the same level of control and confirmation as any one-on-one conversation
  • Recall messages: Recall messages with typos, mistakes or just because. Messages can be recalled from the recipient’s phone before or after they are read.
  • Control the lifespan of a message: The lifespan of messages can be tailored for each conversation or contact; expired messages are completely erased from all phones and servers
  • Determine who receives the message: TigerConnect Clinical Collaboration Platform – Standard messages cannot be forwarded to other recipients
  • Keep their identity private: A TigerConnect Clinical Collaboration Platform – Standard username is created so that users can keep their mobile phone numbers, email addresses and names private if they want
  • Confirm message delivery: Real-time notifications let users know when a message is received, opened or even when a phone is turned off
  • Navigate with ease: The interactive, intuitive and easy-to-navigate app features a picture-based friend list, organized by the individuals and groups that are most frequently messaged, and conversations with soon-to-expire messages
  • Message anywhere, anytime: TigerConnect Clinical Collaboration Platform – Standard works on WiFi and cell phone provider networks; TigerConnect Clinical Collaboration Platform – Standard users can send an unlimited amount of messages for free
