Social apps, are certainly the new buzz this year and we have witnessed an 80% increase in the take up rate year on year. Apps, are certainly big business especially within the 15 to 34 demographic. A brand new social networking app on the market is hoping to capitalise on the potential success this market can attract.

Launched in October 2012, Wozityou is a free social networking app that enables people to connect with others in their immediate area. The app has already made the Apple Store’s ‘What’s Hot’ chart! Users can quickly and simply set up a profile, chat or interact instantly with others nearby. This is called Spotting. Once Spotted, they can also share their Twitter and Facebook profiles. It’s a great way to get the attention of people around you and make new contacts and friends.

Wozityou have partnered with the prestigious 10th annual European Urban Music Awards to sponsor the Best Radio Station category which gives the new app an opportunity to target grassroots consumers and gain attention from music fans and artist alike.
