Clipsal iCat Android app

Clipsal has now released an Android version of the iCat app, an iPhone and iPad version of Clipsal’s Australian Trade Product Guide. Designed for the tradesperson on the move, iCat features all of the information from Clipsal’s Australian Trade Product Guide.

Produced to be as close to the well-known Trade Product Guide as possible, the iCat can be browsed like the print catalogue, using familiar coloured categories, including lighting, and with the additional capacity to search for products and create shopping lists on-site. The app includes all 18,000 of the Trade Product Catalogue’s products and also incorporates extra product information, such as colour options and price.

The Android version has been made to replicate the Apple version while also including some clever new features, such as a barcode scanner. This feature allows users to read barcodes on packaging, identify the product, check its trade price and add it to a job.

The other new feature of the iCat is the ability to hide the pricing of a product. Should a contractor or systems integrator wish to show or discuss a particular product and not want to show the price, the app now offers the ability to hide it. Clipsal iCat is now available free to download for Apple and Android phones via iTunes or the Play Store.
