Online, March 3, 2011 (Newswire.com) - WEB MASTERS has announced THE BOSS 1.3 for iOS, an update to their app that provides complete tracking, analysis, and management of Health, Coaching, Counseling, Wellness, or Fitness Training businesses. The app manages scheduling, income and expense tracking, client sessions, class registration and attendance, client information, and referrals. An additional part of THE BOSS system is a website, which provides data backup, sync, profit and loss statements, data export to a spreadsheet or word processor, data import, in addition to all the functions of the iPhone app. THE BOSS makes extensive use of dynamic information retrieval which provides quick and accurate data input through entering a few letters and having the system present a list of possibilities for the complete entry.

To mark the release of this version the price of THE BOSS will be reduced to $2.99 until April 15, 2011. To add even more value to purchasing THE BOSS during this sale period, the cost of a subscription to the website will be reduced for all purchasers.

On launch, THE BOSS, displays six horizontal buttons and a toolbar with four persistent choices. The six buttons are: Appointments, Add Client, Add Appointment Site, Add Appointment, Add Transaction, and View/Modify Client. Selecting any button opens its screen for data input or retrieval. The configuration and operation of all controls on the iOS app is identical with the controls on the OS X application. Upon opening the Appointments Screen six buttons are displayed: Last Week, Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow, This Week, and Next Week; a convenient method of thumbing through a virtual appointment book. The four toolbar buttons provide a convenient and consistent way to access the main menu of the app, the settings menu, the info display, and the help system.

The Add Client Screen provides text fields for the following: First Name, Last Name, two Phone Numbers, Email Address, Address, City, State, and Zip. The Add Location screen allows the user to enter the physical address where they plan to meet with clients. The Add Appointment Screen makes full use of dynamic information retrieval. By simply tapping Client Name a prompt to "Enter a character or two" is displayed along with the pop-up virtual keyboard. After entering a letter or two the system will present a list of matching entries from which to choose. The Type of Appointment field brings up the iOS odometer display allowing the user to select Meeting or Client Session.
