“The iPhone app will bring in an incredible amount of revenue this year … mobile will be the majority in Q2,” Lerer told VentureBeat after the panel. “It’s a beast. This is where our guys are.”
According to the report, Thrillist’s annual revenue is in the vicinity of $40 million. That’s a lot of iPhone activity.
He said they have an Android app too, but it doesn’t create nearly the same amount of activity as the iPhone app.
Nice!! Loving this trend.
Never heard of this site checking it out now , looks good
I took a look at their Android app. I’m not surprised that it’s not generating revenue — it looks like a buggy port of their iOS app. It’s full of iOS UI patterns that are out of place on Android. It has almost as many one-star ratings as five-star ones, and many users complain that its buggy, slow, and a data hog. I’d suggest that they embrace the Android Design Guidelines and do a major rework of their app. Right now, it’s not really fair to compare the two.
