From the 6th Annual Shorty Awards Best Branded Mobile App

You no longer need to be working out of a garage to develop an effective iOS, Android, or mobile web app for consumers. A majority of the top brands have developed mobile apps internally or with an agency to provide information, sell products, offer customer service, create original content and more. This award honors the best use of an app in a marketing campaign by a brand or an agency. Tell us how you developed it and what it did. Click here to see the previous winner and nominees.
