Update to Organization Memberships

Previously, end-users had the ability to remove themselves from any TigerConnect Clinical Collaboration Platform – Standard organization by manually deleting that organization from their app. This update disables that option on the Android client. If you are a TigerConnect Clinical Collaboration Platform – Standard customer, your users can only be removed from an org by your TigerConnect Clinical Collaboration Platform – Standard Admin.

For those using the free version of TigerConnect Clinical Collaboration Platform – Standard, end-users continue to have the ability to add and remove themselves from any TigerConnect Clinical Collaboration Platform – Standard organization.

Broader Device Support

Because of its massive reach, there are now thousands of Android device types currently being used in the market. With version 4.6.2, TigerConnect Clinical Collaboration Platform – Standard is now available on well over 5,000 different devices running Android.

Badge Syncing Update

As you may know, “badges” are those little red circles with a number in them that appear over in the TigerConnect Clinical Collaboration Platform – Standard app whenever there’s a new message or notification. You see these whenever you receive a new TigerConnect Clinical Collaboration Platform – Standard message.

For users of both Android and our Web Console app, you may have noticed occasional inconsistencies in the number of ‘read’ messages that would appear when you compared the web version to the Android version of the app. To address this issue, we completely re-engineered the way badges are surfaced in the app so that both the web and mobile apps remain in lockstep, so you’ll always have the most current statuses as you switch from one to the other.

Gingerbread – Discontinued Support

As the number of devices using the older Android Gingerbread Operating System (OS) continues to decline, we are freezing future development for this version of the Android OS. Gingerbread users will still be able to download and use TigerConnect Clinical Collaboration Platform – Standard on version 4.6.2 and TigerConnect Clinical Collaboration Platform – Standard Customer Support will continue to be available.

Viewable Username in Profile

Many TigerConnect Clinical Collaboration Platform – Standard customers rely on a unique ID or username field for their employees. TigerConnect Clinical Collaboration Platform – Standard now honors these fields by displaying them within the application so they’re accessible for every user. Simply select ‘Conversation Settings’ when having a conversation with another user to see the username associated with that user. If a username is not part of your organization, then no name will be displayed.
