 Cellogic
today the launch of Flyscreen, a new mobile application created for Android
smartphones that puts your favorite web services on your Android's idle-screen,
enabling zero-click access to web content you use most. FlyScreen has been in
private beta since end of August and starting from today, will be open to the
public packed with new features, including Facebook Stream API support, "double
tap to activate" smart locking mechanism, and more. FlyScreen vastly improves
user's web-browsing experience by enabling zero-to-one click access to web
content through a set of "widgets" bolted on the lock-screen.

By allowing its consumers to embed web services into the phone's lock-screen,
FlyScreen enables quick and easy access to favorite websites and eliminates the
remedial task of sorting through carrier decks, typing in URLs or launching
mobile web browsers and applications while still allowing the user to lock the
phone.
Key User Benefits
- Absolute fastest way to consume, share, and tag content on your mobile
carrier
- Users do not have to click through the mobile device to find or open the
mobile browser or wait for sites to load
- Content is personalized, made relevant to each user
- Using the sleep screen allows the user to always be connected to
relevant content in a passive manner
FlyScreen Key Features
- Dynamic content embedded onto the lock-screen, with a "double tap to
activate" feature, allowing screen to act as a fully functional lock-screen
and prevents accidental clicks
- In-app widget gallery
- Kinetic scrolling
- Revamped UI for the Android platform
- Integrated Search
- Supports Stream API, allowing integrated sharing features through
headlines via E-Mail, Twitter and Facebook (including "comment" and "likes"
feature)
- Tag headlines on the fly (to an RSS feed which can be plugged into
Google reader, or any other RSS reader)
Since launching the beta, FlyScreen has undergone significant performance
enhancements, making it extremely fast and slick. FlyScreen's packaged content
is created in a manageable application, allowing consumers to get in, get
exactly the content they need and get out. Unlike alternative routes that can
lead to an overwhelming availability of content on the web, FlyScreen enables
the mobile web to be as mobile as its users. For content owners or brands, this
means quicker and easier ways to drive people and traffic to their mobile sites,
apps or portals.
FlyScreen's widgets serve as the user's personable zero-to-one click web
access – including Twitter and Facebook updates, mobile search points or any
favorite site of choice, as the widget supports news, sports, social networks,
entertainment and custom mobile RSS/ATOM feeds. Flyscreen also serves to create
a better distribution and syndication channel for mobile content, empowering end
users to personalize and democratize their mobile web experience.
Cellogic's FlyScreen is available from the Android Market free of charge.
