More content and features than ever
Today’s new release of the tripwolf iPhone app contains more premium
content from “Footprint” and “Marco Polo” guides than ever. It also makes
country guides and region-specific guides available for the first time in
addition to the popular city guides. New interactive features have been
integrated: Travelers can upload photos from their iPhones, vote for
locations, write reviews, search for points of interest around them, and add
newly discovered places to the tripwolf travel guides. All of this works
offline, eliminating data roaming costs while traveling: The information is
automatically synchronized once a traveler goes online again. “We are taking
the tripwolf iPhone app to a new level”, says tripwolf COO Alexander Trieb.
“Our combination of premium quality content and community feedback is unique
in the marketplace.”
“Freemium model” for travel guides
tripwolf travel guides on the iPhone are completely free for nearly
50,000 destinations worldwide. For some destinations tripwolf offers a
particularly wide range of premium information: Travel guides for the cities
Amsterdam, Barcelona, Berlin, Bologna, Florence, Madrid, Milan, Paris, Rome,
Salzburg, Turin and Vienna as well as for the countries Denmark, England,
Finland, France, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal,
Scotland and Spain match traditional travel guide books in terms of quality
and coverage. Premium content for these destinations can be downloaded for
only 4,99 Euros. “This is a small price considering that tripwolf travel
guides always stay up-to-date. Three years down the line they will still
contain the hottest tips on Rome or Paris”, says Trieb. Thanks to a
cooperation with Austria’s national tourism organization, Austria.info,
every user gets the premium travel guide of Austria for free.
The tripwolf iPhone app was developed jointly by tripwolf’s team in
Vienna and Salzburg Research, an Austrian research organization focused on
innovative mobile solutions.
