February 19, 2013 |
BARCELONA -- Telmap, pioneers in mobile location-based services, released today a special edition of its direct-to-consumer app M8, your local mate tailored specifically for participants of Mobile World Congress (MWC) in Barcelona. M8 for MWC is offered in both English and Spanish and is specifically designed to allow people attending the show from around the world to feel like locals while in Barcelona this year. Offering a wide array of practical features, M8 for MWC allows users to explore Mobile World Congress, find local restaurants with reviews and table booking, find hotels and make reservations, find special offers nearby, check-in via Facebook, discover the city of Barcelona through the integration of leading travel guides and navigate by car or on foot.

To assist in getting around Mobile World Congress, a dedicated “MWC” widget has been added to the home screen of M8 for MWC. From this widget, attendees have access to valuable information such as an indoor map of the exhibition, a complete directory of all exhibitors, taxi, metro station and ATM finder. What’s more, users will be prompted to download their respective country’s M8 once they leave Barcelona (where applicable).
