New iCandy: Twitter, iPhone Apps Cards, tiny URLs

Posted by: Margarita

Watchmen iPhone AppOf course we still have the new Twitter feature that lets you tweet what you're listening to but we've also added a new media type: iPhone Apps. That's right, you can now create iPhone App cards for the apps you create or the ones you think are great! Hand them out so your friends can scan and download your iPhone App.  Scan the QR Code and it takes you straight to the App Store and to the specific app where you can download immediately.  Works SUPER on the iPhone.  It automatically launches the App store.

 

 

TinyURLs
But wait there's more.  We've also added TinyURLs to the card.  Why TinyURLs?  Well, because not everybody has a barcode app on their mobile phone.  The tinyURL gives people an alternative to decode the info AND you can still track the effectiveness of your printed media.

New Print Layout
Also, there's a new print layout in this version: 4x6 half. This means you can now print TWO iCandy cards on one sheet of 4x6 paper (landscape). We use this layout all the time in the lab and the size is very convenient.

Get Individual Card Analytics
Almost forgot about this one... You can get analytics for an individual card when you hold up to your webcam.  Launch your iCandy client and hit Command-Y on your Mac.  Scan a card.  The iCandy analytics page for that specific QR code will appear in your browser.
