Kyte iPhone Apps Framework

Our turnkey iPhone apps solution is an extension of the Kyte Platform, enabling companies to cost-effectively converge their online and mobile audiences into a single community.  Core, interactive Kyte features including iPhone-optimized video content, real-time chat, comments and ratings, the ability to share content, and real-time viewer count are presented in a dynamic, native interface.

The applications also include activity notifications to indicate new content and chat messages, and come equipped with mobile-specific modules that can be dynamically configured, including:

Twitter

Brands can deliver Twitter feeds, enabling audiences to view Tweets in real-time.

Events

Location-aware module allows fans to view nearby event listings, tour dates, venues, etc.

 

RSS

Blogs, news feeds and other alerts can be delivered via RSS.

 

Downloads

Songs, videos and other digital goods (e.g. tickets, merchandise, etc.) can be made available for mobile commerce.

 

Custom Modules

Expand the possibilities by developing custom native iPhone modules or deliver dynamic, web-based content via mobile web.

 

Companies can monetize the applications by running integrated online and mobile advertising campaigns through newly supported ad platforms, Adconion ad network and Doubleclick DFP. Kyte also offers built-in ad serving capabilities with the Kyte Ad Manager.
