BBC Online mobile apps
February 18, 2010
The BBC is to offer a new range of applications that will deliver BBC Online services to a range of mobile devices. Licence fee payers have already been able to access the BBC website on mobile phones for eight years.
BBC Director of Future Media & Technology Erik Huggers said it is planning to release mobile applications for BBC News and BBC Sport on a wide range of smartphones, starting with a BBC News application for iPhone in April 2010. All applications will be available free of charge.
