Business Happens Everywhere—Your Signature Should Too
Today’s workforce is mobile. Whether you’re finalizing a sales contract from an airport lounge, approving a vendor invoice on your tablet at home, or onboarding a new hire from your phone—your workflow doesn’t pause when you leave your desk. And neither should your ability to sign documents.
That’s where an electronic signature app becomes indispensable. These apps allow you to sign, send, and manage legally binding documents from anywhere, at any time, securely and conveniently. If you’re still tied to a desktop for contract approvals or signature collection, you’re missing out on speed, flexibility, and efficiency.
Let’s walk through what an electronic signature app does, why it’s a must-have, and how the newly updated Foxit eSign mobile app helps you simplify your workflow wherever you go.
What Is an Electronic Signature App?
An electronic signature app is a mobile application that enables users to electronically sign documents directly from their smartphone or tablet. It’s designed to support everything from simple sign-and-send use cases to complex multi-party contracts.
You can use these apps for:
In short, any document that requires a signature can be handled directly from your device—no matter where business takes you.
Why Use an Electronic Signature App?
If you’re only signing documents at your desk, you’re working harder than you need to. Here’s why more professionals are turning to mobile e-signing:
1. Work On the Go
Sign, send, and manage contracts while commuting, traveling, or working remotely.
2. Faster Approvals
Push deals forward in real time instead of waiting hours—or days—for someone to return to their computer.
3. Enhanced Security
Top-tier apps offer encryption, two-factor authentication, and audit trails, even on mobile.
4. Improved Collaboration
Easily collaborate with teams, clients, or partners by routing documents to multiple signers.
An electronic signature app doesn’t just keep you productive—it keeps business moving at the speed of your customers’ expectations.
Features to Look for in an Electronic Signature App
Not all signature apps are created equal. When evaluating which app to adopt, here are the features that make a difference:
- Device Compatibility
The app should work seamlessly on iOS and Android with responsive interfaces for both smartphones and tablets.
- Offline Functionality
Look for the ability to sign documents even when you’re not connected to the internet—especially useful for field workers or travelers.
- Security and Compliance
Ensure the app uses encryption and complies with legal frameworks like ESIGN, UETA, and GDPR.
- Signature Workflows
Ability to manage signer order, add signature fields, and set up reminders from your mobile device.
- Self Signing
Need to sign something yourself? The app should let you upload, sign, and send a document in just a few taps.
- Template Creation Tools
Save time by turning common documents into reusable templates. Foxit’s app gives you multiple ways to do this:
- Upload a document and add fields
- Create a new template from scratch
- Take a picture of a physical form and convert it into a reusable, fillable template
In fast-paced environments like sales, legal, and HR, these features aren’t extras—they’re essential.
