iFog Sales Jump Thanks to Android Ad
Posted by Jeff Campbell in "Apple Software (iPhone/iPod Touch)" @ 09:00 AM
"Israeli iPhone app developer house ApParty had a huge surprise earlier this month when they received their sales results, indeed they had increased by almost a 100%, and this mostly on the American market. While trying to find out what could have possibly impacted them so strongly they discovered a very interesting story."
The story is that the latest T-Mobile Android ad featured a program very similar to the iFog app developed by ApParty. Sales of the iFog app jumped 100% in the U.S. market shortly after the ad aired, causing the app to break the top 20 app list. So the theory is that iPhone/iPod Touch owners searched for similar app after seeing the commercial, and found iFog. I don't see myself getting much use out of this app however so I'll keep my 99 cents.
