Faster, sleeker, more visual access to unbeatable travel and leisure
deals
Travelzoo Inc. (NASDAQ: TZOO), a global Internet media company, today
launched its second-generation iPhone app, giving on-the-go travelers even
easier access to its outstanding deals. The new simplified app, which features
"Today's Best Deals" and Top 20® on the home screen, gives users the ability to
quickly save money on high-quality deals in popular
destinations.
"The Travelzoo ethos is simple - we save people time and money by
sourcing the best deals in the market. With this approach in mind, we redesigned
our iPhone app to bring the Top 20 and Today's Best Deals to center stage," said
Dave Ambrose, senior director for mobile and social at Travelzoo. "Since visual
appeal is key to an app's success, we also introduced significantly larger,
inspiring photos. The app's new interface showcases deals within close proximity
to the mobile user, enabling consumers to instantly access all nearby deals from
spas, restaurants, hotels and shows with just one tap."
Alongside the acclaimed Android app, Travelzoo's first-generation
iPhone app was downloaded by 1.5 million users and scored a 4.5/5 in the App
Store. With today's launch of version 2.0, Travelzoo is aiming for a perfect
5/5.
All deals featured on the Travelzoo iPhone app have been researched
and evaluated by Travelzoo Deal Experts and tested by the Travelzoo Test Booking
Center®.
