iFindiPhone is a new online resource for businesses looking for experienced developers to assist with iPhone app projects. This free service makes the process of finding a developer quick and amazingly straightforward. In just a few simple steps the user can define their project and connect with a suitable developer, right on their iPhone.
iFindiPhone is owned and operated by Mango (ICT) Limited. It is the first iPhone developer directory designed specifically with the iPhone’s inherent ease of communication in mind, and recognizes that users want to be able to search for information and take action as part of one seamless process using their iPhone.
The service eliminates the need to review endless search engine results, websites and blogs to find the right developer, by matching the skills of developers listed in its directory against information provided by the user in three easy steps: first, they select what type of company they are; second, which type of app they require and finally, which types of service they require; all that is left is to review the developers matching their criteria and connect.
The user filters information using simple, familiar icons, instead of filling in forms. With just a few clicks the user is presented with up-to-date contact information, enabling them to engage directly with the developer(s) of their choice, using any of the iPhone’s communication options, such as a meeting invite, email, SMS or phone call. Where both developer and enquirer have an iPhone 4, iFindiPhone encourages connecting via FaceTime video calling for instant and personal service.
The service is completely free to anyone looking for an iPhone or iPad app developer and there is no need to register with the site or create a user account. Developers in the network are based all over the world and have at least one app in the Apple App Store.
“The majority of businesses and entrepreneurs looking to launch iPhone apps, as well as the developers who create them, will be iPhone users so it makes sense to provide a service which enables both parties to connect quickly and easily using their iPhones,” said Neil Morecraft, Managing Director of Mango (ICT) Limited.
“Unlike other matching services which involve submitting forms online and providing extensive information, we ask users to provide only the details which are essential for matching their requirements to potential developers, said Morecraft. “We don’t ask users to log-in or provide background information about their company, which means we can keep the process quick, unobtrusive and most important of all, easy to complete using an iPhone.”
iFindiPhone is inviting more iPhone/ iPad app developers and app development companies to become members of the iFindiPhone directory. The company is celebrating its launch by offering the first 5 leads free to developers. Thereafter the developer’s account is charged on a cost per action basis from as little as £2.50 for following up an enquiry with a FaceTime call or email, for example.
