Tim Hughes, Managing Director of IG Index, commented:
'The first release of the iPhone app proved phenomenally popular with our clients, both through the number of downloads and the volume of feedback we subsequently received. This has helped us shape the content of the first upgrade and by continuing to respond to clients' feedback, we will ensure that our iPhone app remains best in class.'
IG Index has been offering an optimised browser for the iPhone since early 2009 and this proved to be highly popular with existing clients. Making a widely available, downloadable application available from the App Store was the obvious next innovation.

In addition to the iPhone, IG Index also fully supports BlackBerry devices, PDAs and other smartphones, such as those running the Android operating system.
