We’re pleased to announce that we have shipped a new iPhone/iPod version of Local Shops, version 2.0, to Apple. We hope to have it approved and available for download very soon.

Local Shops 2.0 was jointly developed with our development partner, Navitas Games. This new version of Local Shops adds several new features, such as the ability to find offers and featured products from merchants. Merchants will be able to add and maintain listings for their businesses and to create coupons and featured product listings for free using the Taptin Merchant Portal, an online service soon to be released by Navitas Games.

Navitas Games has also just shipped TAPTIN, a social trading cards game for location check-ins, to the Apple appstore. Mo’Blast is a marketing partner for Navitas Games, so we encourage everyone to try out TAPTIN as soon as it is available on the iTunes appstore!
