LinkedIn For iOS Updated With Redesigned Mobile Profiles

linkedin_2


LinkedIn released an update for its iOS app today, bringing various new features including redesigned profiles.

The redesigned mobile profiles help showcase your story so that you can make more professional connections and create more opportunities. 

Your new profile helps you tell your story to other professionals when they’re looking for you on the go. If you aren’t a master storyteller, we’ll let you know what’s missing and how you can add it. You’ll also enjoy discovering new insights about other professionals with the “in common” and endorsements sections we added. They’re great ice breakers you can use when you meet someone for the first time, so you can talk about something other than the weather.

The latest version of the app allows users to easily edit their profiles. The app also shows you who has viewed your profile and what you have in common with that person.
