Yelp
The easiest way to
find the best local businesses — everything from restaurants to dentists to mechanics and lots more — is now built right into Kinoma Play.
Fun fact: Yelp is Kinoma Play’s first
location-aware app! If your phone supports GPS, just choose
Nearby to find everything near you, or check “Use GPS Location” when you
Search. In another first, Yelp is the first Kinoma Play app to feature
tap-to-dial. Once you find the business you can
call it,
map it and even
share it via SMS and email.
A full
feature focus article on Yelp is coming soon. Until then, don’t let that stop you from diving in and enjoying Yelp today.
Google Reader
Recently we introduced a great feed reader app called
News to Kinoma Play. A great addition to be sure, but then we heard from
Google Reader users who wanted to play, too.
Google Reader users, your
wish is granted. Not only can you able to read your subscriptions (including Starred and Shared items), but the
Search command uses Google Blog Search to let you search the content of
all blogs (vs. just blogs you’ve subscribed to)!
Following in Google’s footsteps, we’ve labelled this first release a “beta” so that we can get it to you ASAP. If you use Google Reader with Kinoma Play, please let us know what you think.
Flights
The new
Flights app lets you search for flights and review U.S. airport delays. It couldn’t be simpler:
Once you find your flight, you can see its departure and arrival information. Then with a touch, you can share that via SMS and/or email, or choose
Track Flight to add it to the main Flights screen.
