FOUNTAIN VALLEY, Calif., June 14, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MEDL Mobile, Inc. (OTCBB:MEDL) – an award-winning leader in mobile technology – and BlueVia, the global developer platform from Telefonica, announced today the release of "Here I Am." The GPS based mobile application quickly and easily shares a user's location through SMS messaging via BlueVia's custom API.
The app, built for both iOS and Android devices, allows users to easily stay connected by trading locations with any contact in their address book. The user can also choose from a selection of preset messages and locations; and allows users to send their location to friends who do not have an iPhone or Android.
The new app is currently available via BlueVia's API to subscribers of the O2 mobile network in the UK and is now in the Apple App Store and Google Play. MEDL Mobile is one of the first to use the latest BlueVia API.
"BlueVia has created a very powerful API," said Andrew Maltin, CEO and Co-Founder of MEDL Mobile. "We are excited to have designed a simple, yet powerful application for this new technology. We know O2's customers love this app as much as we do."
"Here I Am" will soon be rolling out in countries across Europe.
