I want an app!

The Current Solutions…

Mobile Support in SharePoint Server 2013

• Mobile views• Contemporary • Classic• Full

• Mobile Alerts• Device channels• Push notifications• BI content

Or you can use third party mobile SharePoint apps…

SharePoint Mobile Apps…

There are a few challenges….

I would like a native experience…

And a better user experience…

SharePoint authentication from mobile devices (Claims, Windows) is a

pain in the…..

With mobile we need new levels of authorization and access control:

Apps & Devices

API and client libraries integration from mobile apps is not exactly trivial

No easy way to leverage SharePoint content, data from mobile apps…

And every enterprise mobile app needs backend capabilities other than

SharePoint. Example: Storage, logging, integration

with other systems…

It’s not about pre-built apps… It’s about leveraging SharePoint as a

platform
