AFP launches iPhone app

PARIS — Global news agency AFP has launched a mobile news application for the Apple iPhone.

The application, which also works on the iPod Touch, offers users the agency’s global news coverage.

“It gives access to the global news agency?s multimedia content in English, Spanish, Portuguese and German, including breaking world news from wars and conflicts to politics, sport and entertainment, as well as the latest major developments in health, science and technology,” AFP said in a statement.

The agency said the application also lets clients integrate and distribute their own content on the iPhone under their own brand.

The application is part of a strategy to cover all mobile news needs and to enable clients to send news across multiple devices and platforms, AFP said.

“We believe that it is our mission to offer our clients mobile-ready content and technological solutions, so they can expand their visibility and reach new audiences,” AFP sales and marketing director Erik Monjalous said.
