545 – Awesome Apps: Communication
The WELSTech April series called “Awesome Apps” continues as Martin and Sallie share some of their favorite smart device communication tools for texting, emailing, video conferencing and more. Sallie has to figure out how to say the name of her new car but in the process found a great car buying app, and Martin, tuning in from a conference in Salt Lake City, found the benefits of handwriting notes…digitally.

One of the uses of the tool is for church shut-in ministry. Contact Dan if you’d like to pilot a program in your congregation.
The discussion:
