Editor’s note: This guest post is written by Alex Ahlund, the former CEO and founder of AppVee and AndroidApps, which were acquired by mobile application directory Appolicious. About this time last year, he gave us his picks of the best iPhone apps of 2009 up until then, so we thought we’d make it an annual tradition. I’ve been involved in the iPhone app industry since it first began in 2008 and I have to say that it has come a long way. I’ve seen it grow from a meager launch of 500 applications in the App Store to currently over 225,000. In only two years, the industry has matured at hyperspeed. It spawned an entire ecosystem to support it from a multitude of news and editorial resources to developer engines, promotional services and ancillary niches. With over five billion app downloads and a billion dollars at stake, it’s no surprise that Read More

The round brings the total amount of capital injected into the company to more than $10 million. Initially incubated by Clearstone in 2008, Geodelic develops a free application for mobile phones that come with ‘search-less search’, meaning the app automatically browses and shows your points of interests in your immediate vicinity. The company was founded by Rahul Sonnad, who previously founded thePlatform, a Web video publishing service he sold to Comcast back in 2006. The Geodelic app, which is available for iPhone and Android, lets you swipe through locations to quickly find a good coffee joint, closest bank, grocery store or favorite restaurant. The application is also capable of learning what you seem to like, presenting you results based on your profile. Users get the added benefit of Geodelic’s integration with select reservation and review services (e.g. OpenTable). The Geodelic network also contains content-specific mobile guides, which can soon be created Read More

Ever since we first tried out Sherpa, a location-based services application, we became fans of Geodelic, the Santa Monica, Calif.-based company behind it. The app, which automatically learns a cell phone user’s favorite locations and lifestyle behavior and was initially launched exclusively for T-Mobile’s myTouch phone, has been downloaded some 350,000 times. Adding to that user base are the recently released versions of Geodelic for Android devices as well as the iPhone. (Click here to download from the iTunes App Store.) In the meantime, Geodelic has just signed a deal with Korea Telecom that will see the company create a Seoul-specific application for Korean iPhone users. The move is expected to bring in revenues in the “high seven figures,” CEO Rahul Sonnad told me. Korea Telecom, an iPhone distributor in South Korea, signed a multiyear deal with Geodelic. This revenue boost will prove to be quite significant for Geodelic, which is Read More

As many of the regular iPhoneFreak readers will already know, I use both an iPhone 3GS and Android based HTC Hero. And because of that, some of my favorite apps are those that cross over between platforms. Typically those apps start on the iPhone side and then end up with Android, but in this latest instance it went from Android to the iPhone. But either way, this app, which is called Geodelic is pretty cool. In short, the Geodelic app is a location based discovery app. Meaning that you can launch this app and combined with the location services in your iPhone you can find local (to where you currently are) restaurants, gas stations attractions and stores. The nice part here is that it seems to be pretty well stocked, of course I am only basing that on the fact that I live in a smaller area and still seem to Read More

By Rene Ritchie, Thursday, Jan 14, 2010 | Geodelic [Free - iTunes link] is a location-based discovery app for the iPhone that knows where you are and uses that information to recommend points-of-interest such as restaurants, stores, and shows. I had the pleasure of watching their show-stealing presentation at CES 2010′s Mobile Apps Showdown last week, and based on the amount of energy and creativity they put into that alone, I’m really eager to try this out and see how it develops. If you are as well, grab the free download and let us know how it works for you! Read More
