Two quick iPad/iPhone tricks for using SpaBoom

The iPad 3G came out at the end of April, and it's a great way to manage your mobile spa or massage therapy practice from anywhere. SpaBoom works great in Safari on the iPad and iPhone, but you need to know a couple of tricks to take full advantage:

  • Apple, in their infinite wisdom, has decided that scroll bars often shouldn't show, which is where the two-finger scroll comes in. Just about everything produces a list in SpaBoom, and it just goes off the right-hand edge on an iPad/iPhone, seemingly lost. Use two fingers, horizontally, to tap and drag within the list, and the rest of your data magically appears. You've just done a two-finger horizontal scroll!
  • Opening in a new page: On your computer, you can right-click on a link and open it in a new tab or browser window. You can do it on an iPad/iPhone, too: tap and hold a link to open it in a new page.
