Global Tel*Link (GTL) developed and released VisMobile Add-On, an addition to its VisMobile video visitation application for Android smartphone and tablet users. This release, an addition to the VisMobile app that allows users to register for and schedule visits, gives users whose loved ones are incarcerated in facilities that allow Internet video visitation the opportunity to conduct video visits from their Android devices.
Internet visitation with smartphones and tablets incorporates all of the same safety and security features as GTL’s other Internet and on-site video visitation technologies. This addition to GTL’s video visitation app was designed to avoid many of the issues experienced by many competing technologies on the market, most notably through its ability to adjust to bandwidth changes. The GTL video visitation app remains functional even when bandwidth changes, and it features built-in notifications to alert users when bandwidth issues are severe enough to affect visit quality or duration, ensuring a better experience for customers.
