Monster likes Mobile : salonMonster comes to iPhone and Android

We’re ridiculously excited to announce that we have released the first version of salonMonster’s new mobile app.

We’ve released it as a web-app, and we’ve got simple instructions on how to add the app to your phone’s home screen.

Once we get a bit of feedback from you, our awesome users, we’ll tweak things and release it as a downloadable app in the iTunes and Android stores.
You can access the app right now by simply opening the Web browser on your smartphone and going to:

http://yoursalon.salonmonster.com/admin

Then, just enter your email and regular password.
Within the next week we’ll be improving things so that you can just go to www.salonmonster.com and click a nice big log in button.

So what does this new mobile monster look like?
