Blick apps crack the million mark

This week marked the one-millionth download of an app from the Blick Group. Eleven apps are now available from the Blick Group.

In addition to the Blick news apps, Blick am Abend and, since last Sunday, Sonntags Blick, the Blick Group also offers apps for skiing, soccer, tennis and ice hockey. There is also a sports bar finder and the Blick TV app for the iPhone. The digital channels have become an important vector of information dissemination at Blick, the group said in a statement.

Available on the iPad are the Blick app and the Blick TV app. The classic Blick News app is now available for the operating systems iOS (Apple), Symbian (Nokia), WP7 (Microsoft) and Android (Google). Blackberry and Meego for Nokia are to follow shortly, the Blick Group added.

The Blick Group launched its digital offensive on May 27, 2010, with a betting game app to coincide with the 2010 World Cup. Finally, on July 29 of the same year, the Blick payment app was launched. The 1 million download mark has now been broken after around 18 months.
