BARCELONA, Spain, Feb. 27, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --Vimeo®, an operating business of IAC [NASDAQ: IACI], today announced the availability of its second-generation Apple iOS app, which includes native support for iPhone and iPad.
"We've seen mobile traffic triple since we launched our original iPhone app in early 2011," said Joseph Schmitt, lead mobile developer at Vimeo. "Now, we've taken what we learned while creating our previous apps and applied it to the updated iOS to improve overall design and usability. We're especially pleased with the awesome iPad user interface, which the Vimeo community has eagerly awaited."
Available today, the new Vimeo Apple iOS app delivers a discovery-focused experience. Users can browse while playing videos, just like on the Vimeo site. Vimeo members can "like" videos; access their Feed, Watch Later queue, and previously liked videos; comment on videos; add videos to their Watch Later queue; and browse and watch all the videos on Vimeo. In addition, the app features a built-in video editor that enables users to create and upload videos on the go. The editor also integrates the Vimeo Music Store, making it easy to add a soundtrack to a video.
