Fans worldwide have used the app to connect with each other for the summers hottest blockbusters. Over 3,600 fans (from 89 countries) of the highly anticipated Superhero film, ‘The Amazing Spider-man' have already engaged around the unique social features of the app.
Eric English, President of FlickDirect Inc. and lead developer, has enjoyed helping movie fans communicate on a global scale. "The feedback we get from the app has been great." he said. "By checking in with each other, tweeting about the film, and counting down with friends, fans have been able to connect in new, revolutionary ways."
"It's also fun to be a part of the run up to a film such as ‘Spider-man' . A few days before a big release, app activity always spikes with the anticipation having been built up for so long."
Movie Clock's central feature is its unique ever-running countdown clock for movies coming soon to theaters. Users can easily search the extensive movie database for their favorite upcoming movie and set an alert to remind them on the film's day of release.
Nathan Rose, CEO of FlickDirect and avid app user said "Watching the days, hours, minutes and seconds tick by to ‘The Amazing Spider-man' has been really exciting. We have over 350 fans checked in through Movie Clock and more than 3600 unique users have used the app just for ‘The Amazing Spider-man. "
