Introduction
MindLink Mobile for iPhone is an extension of the MindLink suite, which you can use whilst on the go. It is a secure and real-time collaboration client designed to extend and complement the powerful features of various bases, such as Microsoft Office Communication Server 2007 R2 with Group Chat, Lync 2010, Lync 2013 and Skype for Business 2015 with Group Chat.
MindLink Mobile allows you to choose which channels you want to take with you whilst away from your desk, enabling you to be at your most efficient when on the go.
MindLink Mobile for iPhone can be used from a range of iOS devices; the iPhone, iPad and iPod touch with OS versions 8.0 and above.
With MindLink Mobile you can:
- View contacts and groups
- Join or import groups from your desktop
- Leave groups
- Find and add contacts
- Send and receive instant messages and alerts and receive links and stories
- Set your presence for others to see your availability
- View of all the activity in your favourite groups
It also explains some of the behavior of MindLink Mobile for iPhone, such as the error messages and the behavior exhibited when multiple clients are being used at the same time.

3 Device Prompts
Figure 3a - Prompt to receive push notifications
Upon initial set-up, you will be prompted as to whether you would like to receive push notifications.
4 Logging On/Out
Figure 4a - MindLink Mobile for iOS log on screen
After the initialisation, the log on screen will be shown.
The options for this are displayed in the drop-down box. See section 10 for further details of 'Presence' selection.
Figure 4b - Selecting presence from the log on screen
Before selecting the 'Log on to MindLink' button, it is possible to select a presence state.
Figure 4c - Entering user name and password
Enter your user name and password to log on.
Figure 4d - Logging on to MindLink
It is possible to cancel your log on whilst the application loads by pressing the ‘Cancel log on’ button at the bottom of the screen.
4.1 Failure to Log on
If logging on has not been successful, an error message will appear to alert you. Different error messages will appear according to the reason why log on was unsuccessful. See figure 4.1a and 4.1b.
Figure 4.1a - Login failure due to invalid credentials
In this case the user name and/or password has been entered incorrectly, so the log on has failed. To cancel the log on tap on the button and re-enter your credentials. Otherwise, tap 'Retry log on'.
Figure 4.1b - Logon failure due to network
This message shows that the log on has failed due to 'host details' or 'network problems'. There are several reasons why MindLink Mobile might not be able to connect:
- Your mobile device has been unable to reach the server
- The server is down
- The internet connection is not sufficient
- The server address may not have been entered correctly
- If VPN is required, it could be that VPN is switched off or has not been configured correctly
4.2 Remember Username
Figure 4.2a - Log on screen with the 'Remember me' option enabled
MindLink Mobile has a ‘remember me’ option. To store your username for future sessions, select the ‘Remember me?’ option before successfully logging on. To make MindLink Mobile forget your username, deselect ‘Remember me?’ and log on. After successfully logging on, the username will be forgotten.

4.3 Disable IM mode
Figure 4.3a - Appearance of MindLink Mobile in 'Disable IM' mode
When the ‘Disable IM’ mode has been selected on the log on screen, the layout of MindLink Mobile will appear changed once you are logged on. See Figure 4.3a for the change in layout from MindLink Mobile when the ‘Disable IM’ feature is enabled.
As can be seen from the above screenshot, when 'Disable IM' mode is enabled contacts will no longer appear to the user. Also of note is the lack of a presence tab, when 'Disable IM' mode is enabled the user will appear as offline to their contacts and will not be able to change their presence. When ‘Disable IM’ is not on, the process to log out is different (see section 4.4below and Figure 4.4a and 4.4b).
4.4 Logging Out
Figure 4.4a - Logging out from the presence tab
To log out, select the ‘Presence’ tab which is located in the bottom right corner of the screen. Just below the center, there is a red ‘Log out’ button. Press this to close the application (See figure 4.4a).

Figure 4.5b - Appearance of MindLink Mobile in 'Disable Group Chat' mode
When the ‘Disable Group Chat’ mode has been selected on the log on screen, the layout of MindLink Mobile will appear changed once you are logged on.
As can be seen from the above screenshot, when 'Disable Group Chat ' mode is enabled groups will no longer appear to the user.
5 Automatic Reconnection
MindLink Mobile will automatically attempt to reconnect - if it is disconnected at any time.
The amount of time it takes to reconnect depends on the cause of the disconnection. MindLink Mobile will attempt to reconnect if there is sufficient network coverage, immediately after being disconnected.
MindLink Mobile operates in 2 modes:
- Offline Mode – you will be able to view instant messages but you will not be able to send or receive new messages. MindLink Mobile will continue to attempt reconnection without any further interaction required, until a connection is made (and Online Mode is activated).
- Online Mode – MindLink Mobile is fully functional.

12 App settings
By going to ‘application settings’ on your iPhone, you can ‘enable logging’. By enabling logging, it is possible to receive an internal log to your device console. Use this setting if advised to do so by your administrator as in general, this should be turned off.
Figure 12a - Enable logging and timestamps in App Settings
12.1 Timestamps
Timestamps are configurable via your iOS device settings (See Figure 13a). Toggling, enable timestamps – changes the appearance of the timestamp from the formatting - message sent “2 minutes ago” (See Figure 13.1a) to more exact detailing – i.e. message sent “17:03” (See Figure 13.1b). This adds the configurability to change the timestamps displayed - relevant to your enterprise needs.
Figure 12.1a - Standard Dating
Figure 12.1b - Exact timestamp
13 Multiple Chat Clients Behavior
This section explains how communication will work when the same user is logged into several chat clients.
13.1 Group Chat
A user can log in to the following chat clients:
- Office Communicator 2007(MOC)
- Lync Communicator
- Group Chat client
- Lync Group Chat client
- MindLink Mobile client
- MindLink Desktop client
13.2 You initiate a conversation via MindLink Mobile
When a user initiates an IM conversation with another person, all messages for that conversation will be received on the chat client you are connected to.
Figure 13.2a - Conversation in Skype for Business 2015 Client
13.3 A contact initiates a conversation
When a contact, regardless of whether they are on your contact list or not, initiates an IM conversation with you, all of the chat clients for the receiver are notified that a new conversation has been initiated. All chat clients - except MindLink Mobile for iPhone will notify you of new messages via toast windows and/or flashing task bar icons. MindLink Mobile for iPhone will notify you of new messages with the IM notification icon. New entries with unread messages will appear in the active conversations group in the ’Contacts’ screen.
Please note that the chat client you choose to accept the conversation is the one that is going to receive all subsequent messages until the connection is interrupted by another chat client – and the endpoint changed. Alternatively, if the conversation is not opened in any chat client, the new messages will go to one client selected by the Lync/OCS server.
If you have active IM conversations and the iPhone is locked, MindLink Mobile will tell the Lync/OCS server to terminate the conversation. This means that when the other party next sends a message, all other clients will display toast windows and/or flashing task bar icons again, giving you chance to accept the conversation with another client. If no other client accepts the conversation, the Lync/OCS server will select one (most likely MindLink Mobile for iPhone, as it was the last endpoint).
