One App To Rule Them All

Here at Uni-versal Extras we have been working hard behind-the-scenes on our first ever mobile application for extras. We are super excited to announce that the UVE Artiste app is now available to download free for both Android and iPhone!

Named in tribute to our great roster of supporting artistes, the app is simple and easy to use and gives you access to your Uni-versal Extras profile and jobs wherever and whenever you need, from the convenience of your smart phone.

As this is the very first version of our shiny new app, we consider this a ‘beta’ release meaning it is tested and ready to use, but we would appreciate all feedback from our artistes and members should you find any issues or have any suggestions. Once you have downloaded and familiarised yourself with the UVE Artiste app we would love to know what you think by submitting this short feedback form. 

What does the UVE Artiste App do?

In short, the UVE Artiste app does a lot of the things that you can do on our website, with the additional benefit of some key features that our artistes have been requesting for years –

– Upload documents, i.e. if required to prove you have DBS checks, licenses, etc.
