Posted
By: Joel Gunter | journalism.co.uk

The BBC is developing an app that will allow its reporters in the field to file video, stills and audio directly into the BBC system from an iPhone or iPad.

The software is being adapted for the Apple phones from an existing app used by the BBC and is due to be in use within around a month.

As part of a new strategy which will see the broadcaster focus on getting the most out of smartphone technology, it is also aiming to obtain iPhone licenses for existing app Luci Live, allowing reporters to broadcast live from the phone using 3G signal.
