At this year’s mobile world congress, apmato presents the new “attractions editor”. This add-on to the CMS system allows the easy editing of points of interest to create apps that feature location based information. Multimedia content can be added to each attraction, as well as audio tracks that can be played automatically if the user is near to the attraction.
An example use case is an audio and multimedia city guide, that plays audio information based on the location of the user and presents background information such as text, image or video. The user can enjoy the sights and attractions while listening to background information on his iPhone or Android based smartphone. With the “attractions editor” the tourist board can create and edit new attractions, add text and image information, select the location on the map and save the new attraction to the app. Based on the apmato system, updates to the full native app can be published any time and are automatically downloaded to the smartphones of the users.

However, with business expenditure and budgets under pressure, it’s easy to see why some companies have been unable to take this opportunity yet. This is why we have created Apmato. Our online CMS is not only easy-to-use and easily extendable depending on the experience of the user, but offers a low cost solution for any company new to the mobile application world.
