Update to Lync for iPad Brings Meeting PowerPoint Visuals to iPad

 

Lync for iPad is getting an interesting update: You can now view the PowerPoint portion of a Lync meeting.

Some things to note about the update

• iPad will be available to view the PowerPoint portion of a Lync Meeting only. (not desksharing or video)
• Basic-will follow the presenter and not allow going forward and backward.
• Only iPad, not WindowsPhone, Android, iPhone
• Requires June 2012 Server side updates before it will work

NOTE: I’m very glad that my Lync User QuickTip #11 is no longer needed for iPad devices! (Lync User QuickTip #11: Want Mobile Devices to Attend the Visual Part of Your Next Lync Meeting? Here’s How) This tip might still be useful for WindowsPhone, iPhone and other devices.
