Glympse, the world’s leading location sharing app and technology provider, has teamed up with Samsung’s cross-platform messaging app ChatON, to provide location sharing services to the ChatON’s 180 million users worldwide. This partnership comes merely days after BlackBerry’s BBM & Glympse officially announce their integrated partnership.
“We always strive to provide our users with the best, most innovative technologies to enhance their mobile conversations and, we hope, to make their lives easier,” said Jay Park, vice president, Samsung Electronics. “Real-time location sharing was at the top of our list, and we are excited to partner with Glympse to offer their technology to ChatON users around the globe.”
ChatON’s mobile communication service allows Android, iOS, Windows, Blackberry, Samsung feature phones and Web users around the globe the opportunity to communicate without the barrier of a specific device or operating system. This is Glympse’s first truly multi-platform partnership across all four major mobile OS, allowing users to share their location with anyone without having to develop a custom network or circle of friends with the same type of phone.
