It’s Showtime – for real!

Hi there – remember us? It’s the ones with the fancy cards and that mysterious iPhone app.
“Well.. we make it short today: We are sorry, but we are not releasing it – It’s just so nice, we want to be the only ones having it. kthxbye”
To be honest, this isn’t the truth – fortunately. The whole process took longer than anticipated. And in the end, we skipped 2 perfectly fine versions of the app, because it wasn’t quite ready yet.
But today, now and here, we proudly present Showtime. Designed to be the ultimate movie application, engineered to bring you to the movie you wanna watch – wherever that may be. After months of developing, prototyping, designing and field testing, we can now finally be sure, that you will like it. It’s the complete theater program for one week for all cities in Switzerland and Germany and most cities in the U.S. (just tell us if your favorite movie theater is missing). Once synchronized, your data is available offline. Besides what you expect from a theater-application (times..), it also features official movie trailers, ratings, movie information in up to 3 languages (English, German and French) and a very distinct and unique UI.
As mentioned, it’s currently available in the U.S., Switzerland and Germany respectively. This price is an introductory price, and since this project is an experiment for us, it’s likely to change some day, so you’d rather get it now. [AppStore Link]
Should you have any questions, there is an FAQ section in the App, otherwise, just drop us a line through the form in the app or an email, we are always happy about feedback – be it good or bad.
There is not much more to add, except that we think you will enjoy it, be it only for the design or the animations that we still enjoy after watching them about a thousand times.
And feel free to share and tweet and tell your friends if you like it.
