MeetMe Launches New Friend & Match Notifications in Chat
July 01 2014 - 9:00AM
Business Wire
MeetMe, Inc. (NASDAQ: MEET), the public market leader for social
discovery, has enhanced the Chat experience in its MeetMe mobile
applications by integrating notifications of new friends and new
matches directly into user-to-user conversations. The company
believes this upgrade will lead to more chat activity by reducing
friction involved in starting a conversation when new connections
are made on the MeetMe platform.
“This enhancement is the latest in a series of several upgrades
aimed at streamlining the user experience and funneling traffic
into our most engaging feature — Chat,” said Geoff Cook, CEO of
MeetMe. “We believe that integrating these high-volume
notifications directly into Chat will provide our users with a much
more seamless way to turn new connections into extended
back-and-forth conversations within MeetMe.”
In addition to integrating notifications directly in Chat,
MeetMe continues to enhance the core Chat experience. Its new app
update on iOS and Android offers audio alerts of new chats and
real-time typing indicators in the chat list; both features are
designed to help users more easily keep tabs on their
conversations.
