Meeting the needs of a dynamic, on-the go workforce
NEW YORK, NY – August 22, 2012 – Guardian members can now locate dental and vision providers with the new Guardian AnytimeSM Mobile app for iPhone® and Android™ launched by The Guardian Life Insurance Company of America (Guardian), one of the nation’s largest mutual life insurers and a leading provider of employee benefits.
The launch of this app demonstrates Guardian’s commitment to meeting the needs of a dynamic, on-the go workforce. Nearly two out of three smartphone users are interested in using an insurance app, according to research done by Frank N. Magid Associates, Inc., on behalf of Guardian.

Members can locate in-network dentists from one of the nation’s largest dental networks and vision providers from both VSP and Davis Vision. Members can search by name and location for contact information, interactive maps and driving from anywhere in the country.
“The introduction of Guardian Anytime Mobile ensures that we are reaching and delivering value to our customers in the way in which they want to interact,” says Elena Wu, VP, Group Marketing and Learning Services. ”With more than 100 million consumers using smartphones, Guardian Anytime Mobile is a natural extension to our existing service channels and we have plans to continue to enhance the application based on the needs of our customers.”
