MeetMe Launches New Design of Mobile App

10/06/2014

NEW HOPE, Pa.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
MeetMe,
Inc. (NASDAQ: MEET), the public market leader for social discovery, has
begun to rollout a major redesign of the MeetMe mobile app. The new
design is currently available to a limited number of users and is
expected to be available to all users by the end of the month.

“We believe the improvements we made to Chat earlier this year continue
to drive growth,” said Geoff Cook, CEO of MeetMe. “Q3 average mobile DAU
is 888,000, up 6% vs. Q2 and up 15% vs. Q1 of this year. September was
our single best chat month ever, averaging 15.7 million daily chats
across the MeetMe platform. In late June we announced a record-high 15
million chats in a single day. Our average day now exceeds the
record day we reported only three months ago. We believe our app
redesign will further drive quality chats on behalf of our users.”

“The early results of the redesign look promising,” Cook notes. “In
particular, among the subset of iOS users who are on the new design, we
are seeing double-digit percentage gains in screen views and ad
impressions. What’s more, we view this release as foundational,
providing a platform for continued innovation of the product in the
months ahead.”

The new design further emphasizes Chat, the company’s fastest growing
and flagship feature. The new design makes it easier to find someone new
to chat with by surfacing potential chat partners on initial entry to
the app, replacing Feed as the default screen on login. In addition, the
new design replaces the “drawer” style menu in favor of tabs, which
enable users to quickly switch between features and receive notification
of new activity instantly.
