Apartment listing service introduces its first iPad® application
(April 2, 2014) – MyNewPlace, one of the largest apartment listing services in the United States, announces the newest addition to its mobile offerings— its first iPad app. In the first week of release, the MyNewPlace iPad app was listed as a featured app in the iTunes store, and has since been downloaded more than 900 times since its March 24 launch.
Following the success of its iPhone® app last August, MyNewPlace continues efforts to help renters find a place they love through the iPad app’s unique interface, which was designed for today’s increasingly mobile consumer. According to the Pew Research Center, tablet adoption has almost doubled during the past year. This, coupled with the increase in smartphone usage, is driving the need to build new offerings that meet today’s technical standards.
“We want to make sure that, when consumers are searching for their new home, MyNewPlace provides an amazing experience on whatever device they use,” said Andy Hamilton, vice president of consumer and internet listing services at MyNewPlace. “Our new iPad app is different from any other app in the market because of features such as 3D floor plans, side-by-side property comparison, photo uploading, appointment settings directly from any device, and sharing favorite communities with friends.”
