Mobio Networks today announced the availability of Mobile Movie Times, the first
mobile application that enables moviegoers to find local movie details and buy
tickets on their handsets in three clicks or less.
CUPERTINO, Calif., Nov. 6 -- The free service launch is in conjunction with Universal
Picture's Nov. 17 release of Let's Go To Prison.
Mobile Movie Times takes the hassle out of watching the hottest new films this
holiday season by mashing up the Web services needed to get movie listings, reviews,
maps and buy tickets by phone. Users can quickly search, purchase and have their
tickets ready and waiting for them when they arrive at the theater. Mobile Movie
Tickets is the first movie application that gives individuals the "tastiest bits
of the Web" in three clicks or less -- with minimal to no data entry required.
"Most mobile services are clumsy and counterintuitive because they aren't built
to recognize the individual's personal preferences or location," said Ramneek
Bhasin, Founder and CEO of Mobio Networks. "We've developed a highly personalized
user experience that is tailored to the individual's tastes, demographic and geographic
information. Unlike other mobile services, Mobile Movie Times feels like it knows
the user."
Mobile Movie Times is powered by a proprietary technology called Context Synchronized
Start (XSS) that imbeds users' preferences, so that when they launch the application
only the pertinent information is displayed based on their profile. XSS also automatically
delivers synchronized information based on highly relevant factors such as time
of day and the user's location.
