AT & T Toggle Mode:Switch Between Work & Play Seamlessly

AT & T has released a new concept called Toggle which would enable its users to switch between work & play with a few quick taps on your SmartPhone or tablet.So those of you who are concerned having to mix work & play on your SmartPhone then this is what you need.AT & T toggle separates & safeguards business data like office emails,contacts & calendars etc & separates it from social activity modes like documents,images ,videos etc.The logic is to create a distinct work mode in conjunction with the typical personal mode in the same SmartPhone or Tablet.Being first of its kind App,the Toggle is expected to be launched by the year end.The 2 modes can be explained as follows:

• Personal mode: When not working, send text messages to friends, watch TV shows and movies, and play games on your mobile device as you otherwise would. Personal activities remain segregated.
• Work mode: If it’s time to buckle down and focus on business, employees can enter their work environment. In this mode, users can access corporate email, applications, calendars and more, just as they would on a company-provided device.

AT & T released a statement & I quote:

                                        “Our research shows that approximately 50 million employees in the U.S. alone could benefit from business mobile applications,” said John Stankey, President and CEO, AT&T Business Solutions. “Mobile applications delivered in a cloud computing environment can transform business operations. AT&T is focused on integrating advanced technologies – like cloud and mobility – to create valuable solutions for our customers.”

 Toggle can be implemented on SmartPhones with Android 2.2 Froyo & above.Stay tuned for more updates.
