You know you're having a good fortnight when you pick up two
awards - and it feels kinda awesome. We were at the inaugural
Digital Technology Awards at The Arches in Glasgow last night (run
by industry body, ScotlandIS) where we won the award for Best New
Product or Service for our SprintGPS mobile phone app. There are
some great photos of
the night from ScotlandIS.
We developed the SprintGPS app in house and it's gone from
strength to strength picking up multiple awards, great reviews and
high ratings ever since.
SprintGPS Fitness Tracking app for the iPhone
The app helps walkers, runners and cyclists track their
activities and monitor their fitness levels. It measures distance,
time, speed, pace, calories and altitude in real-time and includes
ghost running, detailed in-app statistics and sharing tools.
The Sunday Times gave it a thorough bench test and rated it 5/5.
On the App Store it reached the 'Top 5 'in key territories around
the world and more than 80% of users rated it 4 or 5 stars. It
won 'Best Use of Mobile Technology at the Herald Digital Business
Awards and now this award at the ScotlandIS Digital Technology
Awards is just fabulous.
We've had so much activity today on Twitter it's been
incredible, from clients and industry friends alike. One thing
worth pointing out is the great camaraderie across the Scottish
digital industries which is always reinforced at events like this.
So in that spirit, we simply must say well done to all the other
winners, runners up and participants in last night's
awards! Also thanks to ScotlandIS for arranging the event - a
great evening.
