A brand new rich media application is launching in the UK, with the Carphone Warehouse as exclusive European Distributor – its name? – Snapplife!
The App is going to be available on Series 60 and WinMo handsets, and will aggregate a number of content feeds, such as Sky News, Twitter, and others (see pic above). The App will also be able to link to other native apps on the device – a major upside, since not quite everything usually resides in one App (well not in my experience anyways!)
Developers can also get in on the action early, being able to design Apps for Snapplife, which will then be made available for purchase – to do that, you’ve got to check out the website of SnappLifes creator, Hiplogic, here.
If you fancy getting in on some of the action with Snapplife, then you have a number of options:
- Go to a Carphone Warehouse store and sign up
- Go online to http://www.snapplife.com
- Text ‘snapp’ to 64246
Personally I think it looks pretty good – now I just need to find a Series60 or WinMo device to try it on!

Ben Robinson
Ben is a 10+ year veteran of the Mobile industry – starting his career when SMS was a still a relatively new concept for most people (!), he has now consulted on everything from bleeding-edge Mobile content, to the next-gen accessories you might view it on. As a result he has a broad and deep knowledge in numerous areas of Mobile – from network operators to device vendors, to infrastructure and middleware vendors (not to mention content delivery) – and has worked for companies in all of these areas! He is based in the UK, a hotbed of activity for mobile, and recently became a father for the second time – as oppose to in his younger years when he was happy spend time tweaking all manner of mobile devices to 'nth' degree, he now looks for services and hardware that provide the most efficient, compact, and reliable improvements to his already manic life! It’s his opinion that Mobile solutions should be there to help to make your life better – if a particular solution (be it service or device) isn’t doing this, he believes you need to ask the very important question of why you continue to use it... His focus at IntoMobile is mainly on Mobile content, services, and infrastructure, particularly as regards the UK market – and with the occasional look at devices. Additionally, using his extensive experience in the industry, he will provide commentary on the industry at large, with regular (and hopefully thought-provoking) articles.
