Among the Apps, which are of value to enhance the work of the journalists were, Evernote; Quickoffice; Journalists Pro; Keynote; Numbers; Coverit Live; Wordpress; Voice Recorder HD (Audio Boo); ProCamera HD; FlipBoard, among many others.
Madam Taryn Hyam from Core Group Africa who took the participants through the Apps said “Apple has about 850,000 Apps which help make the use of the iPad and iPad Mini an interesting tool to work with”.
According to her, journalists all over the world are using the Apple Apps to enhance their way of reporting and posting interesting stories on social media.
Madam Hyam said the time had come for journalists in Ghana to also explore and experience the various Apps to take their profession to the next level.
“I know many people are scared to explore but use them and practise and they will give you what you want,” she added.
She said very soon, interested people could acquire the iPads and Ipad Mini on credit basis over the 12-month period, interest free.
The move, she said, is to enable more people to buy the product and experience the wide variety of Apps to enhance their way of doing things.
“We have piloted the credit sale in Nigeria and we will so do same in Ghana,” she said.
