Many reporters and editors need to be able to work on articles from their phones -- filing a story from a press event, editing from home, making minor corrections from the train, etc. Websked and Anglerfish work fairly well on mobile devices, but Ellipsis does not.
This is critical functionality that almost everyone in our newsroom would use.

We plan to add some Ellipsis features such as uploading a photo to a story available on mobile.
Anais, is your response posted on the wrong idea? This request is not related to the Broadcast app.
Hi Ian,
We are in the prototyping phase of adding to the Broadcast app write, edit, publish, and un-publish an article in addition to upload a photo. This is on our short term roadmap.
Thanks,

Hi Folks,
Any update on this. It's been a year and a half since the above Admin Response, and I do not know that any action has been taken. We again got a request on this from one of our editors, and I can't imagine any Arc Customer/Partner not seeing this as a key feature missing from the Arc Platform, regardless of whether they are a print/online or broadcast organization.
Where is this in the current Roadmap? Is there an ETA on this or should we give up hope and look elsewhere for a solution/workaround?
Thanks,

Please make ellipsis more mobile friendly as:
Jessica,
Could you provide further detail on what features are needed to make Ellipsis usable on Mobile devices? )which means iOS and Android Smartphones as well as Tablets.) Could Product then respond to those specific requirements?
Thanks,
Ian Krantz
