DELRAY BEACH, FL--(Marketwired - Sep 17, 2014) - Protext Mobility (PINKSHEETS: TXTM), a developer of innovative and trusted applications for the mobile communications market, is pleased to announce that the Company is currently in the development phase to add a new application to our lineup, designed to combat the distracted driving epidemic, for iPhone 6 users and the iOS platform. The Company expects to launch the application in time for the upcoming holiday season, with a pre-ordering period to commence on its new e-commerce site, which is in the final stages of development and is estimated to go "live" within the next 2 weeks.
"We are witnessing a continued strong market interest for our Android OS distracted driving solution; and by leveraging our core mobile technology platform and adding an iPhone 6 distracted driving app, we are immediately expanding our revenue opportunities," noted Steve Berman, CEO of Protext Mobility. Protext's OBD-II distracted driving solution is being marketed and sold directly to consumers' at over a dozen auto-dealerships already, with collateral marketing and product information displayed prominently at the welcome desk and throughout the showroom floor.
Mr. Berman continued, "Our pipeline of new dealerships testing product in-house and those about to commence selling DriveAlert at point of sale, continues to grow and with that so does our revenue opportunities. Adding iOS/iPhone to our product suite, we believe many dozens of additional dealerships we're in discussions with will rollout both Android and iPhone solutions simultaneously thus offering a wider audience the option of adding a distracted driving solution to many more auto purchase transactions. "
The total number of Smart Phones in the world is now approaching a staggering 2 billion, and it's anticipated that up to 80 million iPhone 6 units could ship this year. "Literally having the world at our fingertips through our smart devices has obvious benefits, but there are also dangers associated with the fast-paced world of technology and social media. Each day in the United States, more than 9 people are killed and more than 1,060 people are injured in crashes that are reported to involve a distracted driver," Mr. Berman went on to say.
