Already available for Java supported phones and iPhone, GyPSii has released their Android application this week. The free application allows users to place and map Points of Interest (POIs) with their handheld devices to generate location-based content and also to access the content of their friends and other members of the GyPSii community.
Using GyPSii on their Android phone, the end-user can locate their friends and fellow GyPSii members, and also connect with their surroundings in new and innovative ways by accessing information on nearby places. In addition, they can use their phone to create their own location-specific places to share with other members of the GyPSii community.
“Android-based phones are already some of the hottest mobile devices on the market, and with our support for the platform, GyPSii is well-positioned to take advantage of consumers‟ appetite for these devices – now and into the future,” said Dan Harple, GypSii‟s CEO and Executive Chairman. “Launching on Android is an important continuation of our global distribution strategy, working with partners across multiple channels to drive large-scale consumer adoption and align GyPSii with the needs of the global social networking market.”
With the addition of Android support, GyPSii now runs on all eight leading mobile operating systems –Android and Java-based phones, Symbian S60 and S40, BlackBerry, the iPhone, Windows Mobile and MID notebooks– and is compatible with more than 350 devices worldwide.
