Yelp, an online destination for detailed
reviews on local businesses and services, announced that a customized version
of the Yelp mobile app is now preloaded on all Samsung Exhibit II 4G, T-Mobile
myTouch and T-Mobile myTouch Q smartphones.
“As smartphones become more ubiquitous
we’re finding that increasing numbers of consumers are turning to Yelp on their
mobile devices to find amazing businesses nearby,” said Andrea Rubin, vice
president North American Marketing, Yelp.
The Yelp app for T-Mobile Android devices
features new advanced filters to make searching for a business easier and
faster. Additionally, there is a new “saved search” functionality,
which allows users to save search filter settings and use the same criteria
over and over without having to re-enter the specific filters, for frequent
searches.
“T-Mobile is excited to work with Yelp
to provide this compelling feature exclusively for our customers,” said
Torrie Dorrell, vice president of Applications, Content and Games for T-Mobile USA.
In Q3 2011 an average of over 5 million
monthly unique visitors relied on Yelp Mobile apps to help them make a spending
decision on the go. Existing T-Mobile users with Android-powered smartphones
are able to download the free customized Yelp app.
