Telkom launches financial reports app

The Telkom app's welcome page

Telkom has launched a mobile application for tablet computers that allows people to review its financial data. Called the Telkom Financial Reports App, the application is available for tablets running Google’s Android and Apple’s iOS operating systems and is free to download and use.

The app was designed and built by Telkom and includes the company’s annual reports and the ability to check annual and interim results. It also carries the company’s latest JSE Sens news announcements and uses push notifications to alert users to the availability of updated information.

The iOS version of the app for Apple’s iPad devices is available in Apple’s App Store and the Android version is available via Google Play. They have been launched just days before Telkom’s annual results presentation on Friday.

The Android version is compatible with 10-inch tablet computers running Android 3.0 or later. Telkom says it intends to develop versions of the app that support smaller displays.

The company says its latest financial information will be updated on the application at the same time as the information on the company’s corporate website.

Telkom isn’t the first company to launch an app aimed at shareholders. Mobile operator Vodacom also has a financial results application called Vodacom Report Library.  — (c) 2012 NewsCentral Media

TechCentral is South Africa’s online technology news leader. We don’t say that lightly. We believe we produce the country’s best and most insightful online tech news aimed at industry professionals and those interested in the fast-changing world of technology.

We provide news, reviews and comment, without fear or favour, that is of direct relevance to our fast-expanding audience. Proportionately, we provide the largest local audience of all technology-focused online publishers.

We do not constantly regurgitate press releases to draw in search engine traffic — we believe websites that do so are doing their readers and advertisers a disservice. Nor do we sell “editorial features”, offer advertising “press offices” or rely on online bulletin-board forums of questionable value to advertisers to bolster our traffic.

TechCentral, which is edited and written by award-winning South African journalists, cares about delivering top-quality content to draw in the business and consumer readers that are of most interest to technology advertisers.

We’d like the opportunity to demonstrate the value of directing a portion of your advertising budget to TechCentral, whether your company is in the technology field or not.
