Version 1.0 of our iPhone app is pretty much all set to be submitted to Apple for approval.
As mobile usage increases and users move to specific apps for entertainment and information, specially when they're not in front of their computers, this is a long term investment for us at GeoClicks.
Here's what the app includes:
- All our forums, in all the cities that they're available in, in ONE application. This includes GeoExpat.Com, GeoBaby.Com and the to be launched GeoSchools community which will focus on educational issues for parents and older kids.
Version 1.5 (Early May release) will include location based features - including discount offers. You will be able to use this app to get access to businesses ( not just bars and restaurants ) which offer special deals to GeoExpat members, in the location you're currently in. Contact us to get more information on how to add your business to this app.
Version 2.0 will include our classifieds, events and push based messaging to allow instant notifications when someone replies to your ad, forum post etc.
Andriod app development is in progress and we hope to have 1.0 released by Mid to late April.

Here are some screenshots.
For those who use mobile phones that are not supported by us ( blackberries, microsoft, sony, nokia phones) we will continue to provide a HTML based mobile site. Just open Hong Kong Expats - Classifieds, Forums, Jobs & More For Expats in Hong Kong or other city specific sites in a mobile browser. We expect to maintain this platform as a usable / minimal feature platform.
