IBM Cognos Mobile was originally launched under the name Cognos Go! Mobile as a part of Cognos BI v8.x for delivering reports on BlackBerry, Symbian, and WinMobile phones. With the new release of IBM Cognos BI v10.1.1, the mobile offering supports immobile devices in new ways. The interface has become much more robust, and the native application for the iPad is now available in the Apple App Store.
