LinkedIn Connected for iOS

LinkedIn Connect enhances your LinkedIn experience by giving you just the right details you need every day to make the most of your network. With just a few swipes, you can send meaningful interactions to important people in your network and ensure that you're in the best possible position to advance in your career.

Pros

Calendar sync: When you sync this app with your calendar, you can take advantage of some pre-meeting intel on the people you're going to be interacting with. You'll see some basic info about the other meeting attendees, as well as a quick-connect option if they aren't already in your network.

Contact integration: You can also sync your Contact List through the app, and you'll then be prompted to connect with any contacts not already a part of your LinkedIn network. And in addition to immediate contact connections, the app will also suggest other people who share connections with you that you may want to connect with, as well.

Cons

Complete account: In order to take full advantage of what this app offers, you need to have a pretty thorough LinkedIn profile and network set up already. The app will certainly help you build your network no matter how large it is to begin with, though, and you'll eventually see great benefits from that growth.

Bottom Line

LinkedIn Connect is a great way to ease your use of LinkedIn while also allowing you to get the most out of the network. It presents only the most relevant information in your feed, and it makes you better prepared for whatever you're doing that day.
