"With two college-age kids of my own, and coming from years on college campuses, I'm convinced that new technology is the key way to communicate with young people-and a lot of other people too," said ACT CEO Jon Whitmore.
High school students, schools and parents can continue to access ACT's iPhone college search app released in February.
In addition to the college and student apps for the iPhone, all Smartphone users will now be able to find information on the new ACT mobile website at http://m.actstudent.org.
