Tech Tip | Mobile myMiami provides smartphone access

Randy Hollowell, IT Services

It is Family Weekend at Miami, so we thought it would be a good idea to remind our visitors (as well as current students, faculty and staff) that Miami University has a Mobile version of myMiami. Much of the basic information available through the myMiami web portal is also available via your smartphones at http://m.muohio.edu. Developed alongside the Miami University iPhone app, Mobile myMiami provides essential information and services via a web interface designed for mobile devices.

Mobile myMiami automatically detects the device and delivers a version optimized for that particular platform. The site can be viewed on a variety of devices including Blackberry, Android, iPhone and other web-enabled phones. Currently available are:

  • Emergency information
  • University events calendar
  • Campus map
  • News updates
  • Directory
  • University libraries
  • Dining hall menus
  • Niihka access
  • Alumni news
  • Media content

New functions will be added in the future. Suggestions or other feedback to make Mobile myMiami more useful can be shared at ITHelp@muohio.edu.

The iPhone app is available for free from iTunes and includes all of the mobile content, plus:

  • Visitor parking information
  • Bus routes
  • Sports news
