Poynt, a provider of mobile local search and advertising,
announced that Poynt mobile local search and advertising platform is available
on new and existing Samsung GALAXY Series devices including the GALAXY S II and
GALAXY Tab 10.1.
Poynt will be available on Samsung Apps in the United
States, India, Canada, Germany, Australia, Italy, the United Kingdom, France
and Spain.
The on-device Samsung Apps, Samsung’s dedicated
application store, features a variety of apps that are specially designed and
carefully selected for Samsung smart devices.
Poynt’s engaging location-based search features and
device integration create an immersive user experience. A unique augmented
reality feature has been added to Poynt for select Samsung GALAXY devices. The
feature allows users to overlay search results with the real-world environment
as viewed through the device camera.
“We expect our long term service offering through
Samsung Apps to accelerate our user numbers globally as Samsung has recently
become the No. 1 smartphone manufacturer in the world. Currently, we are 11.5
million unique users and this offering furthers our goal of adding 50 million
new users over time,” said Andrew Osis, CEO, Poynt.
Previous Poynt on-device offerings have resulted in
substantial new user adoption, broadening revenue streams. Poynt Corp.
estimates that the retention rate of users who discover Poynt through preloads,
feature placements or on-device offerings are approximately forty percent over
time.
