Last week, we listed out some of the most useful iPhone apps for business use. We intentionally left one off that list, so we could share it with you in more detail today:

Your oDesk team room is a great place for staying abreast of all the things your teammates are working on, but sometimes you’re not in front of your computer and you’d like to keep up to date with what’s going on back in the virtual office.  With the new oDesk iPhone app, now there’s an app for that.

The oDesk iPhone app gives you literal visibility of your online workteam no matter where you are:

• See all providers in your team room grouped by current work status – Working Now, Worked in the Last 24 Hours, Other
• View each team member’s latest work memo, local time, 24-hour work sparkline, and latest snapshot
• Check complete work diaries including memos, full-size snapshots, activity indicator, billing status, timestamp, and active window for any date

The app is designed for both buyers and providers.

Watch Brain Goler, oDesk’s VP of Marketing, give a quick demo of the app in action:

Ready to download? If you have an iPhone (or iPod Touch), follow this link to install the app.  Or, search the App Store for “oDesk” to find it.

If you have any suggestions, we’d love to hear them at iphone-app@odesk.com, or in the comments section below.  And, if you like what you see, please rate the oDesk iPhone Application it in the App Store!
