An app for programmable personal mobile communications devices which is useful for people attending meetings, conferences, classrooms and the like is described. The app permits the device to operate as a microphone to address the audience through a local wireless network and the public address system and as an app for meeting functions, such as the queuing of speaker/questioners at the meeting, the handling of audience surveys and nondisclosure agreements, record-keeping at meetings and so forth. Furthermore, different aspects of the app allow a user to operate as a moderator/host of a meeting in one case or as an attendee/participant of the meeting in another.
