The application is the latest addition to For Rent's existing suite of mobile marketing products offered to apartment seekers.
With ForRent.com's free GPhone application, apartment seekers can browse through thousands of apartment listings nationwide. Users can also view apartment descriptions, videos, pictures, and floor plans, save their results, and contact the property. Consumers can use touchable map pins to click on a pin representing a property and go directly to the property's page.
The GPhone runs on the new Google Android operating system. Applications are only accessible through the GPhone phone, but can be previewed at the Android Market Web site.
"According to comScore Media Metrix, consumers downloaded 83 percent more mobile applications in March 2009 than in March 2008," said Terry Slattery, president of For Rent Media Solutions. "We understand how much mobile Web impacts our consumers' daily lives and will continue to explore opportunities with other mobile devices."
